It seems extremely short to me. Usually suit jackets should cover your butt, but this looks like it's barely past your belt. If it's going to be worn alone (i.e. as a blazer/odd jacket) then there's a little more leeway on length, but still...that's really short. You should try a 36R (or even 36L...) and get the sleeves shortened . How tall are you?

Now that I can actually see the pic I'll pitch in my 2 cents
I don't know what kind of look you're going for. If you're going for a classic men's look, then the jacket is too short. If you're going for a sort of urban mod/streetwear type of thing, then the jacket is perfect. And don't button the bottom button.

I understand its short/slim but that what i was looking for, i should of specified in the first post.

I won't bother to echo the other comments about it being too small. Having said that, from what I can tell your posture looks weak. You should work on standing up straight with your chest out and shoulders back. It doesn't need to be exaggerated, but your clothes will look better and women will find you more attractive if you have better posture.
