Where to buy good tall blazers?

I'm starting a new job soon and need to be a bit smarter. I'm looking for a couple of blazers to wear to work, over a shirt & chinos or shirt and skirt. I don't want suit jackets but something fairly structured like heavy jersey or a light wool.
Trouble is I'm long in arm and body and lots of blazers look ridiculous on me. Places like Boden, Jack Wills etc just don't fit.
Any suggestions for other places to look please? Budget not masses but will stretch for the right thing Smile

I am only 5’8”, but my height is largely in my back. I also seem to have quite long arms ;although I am taller than my reach). Anyway, I’m like Joukes blazers, they always seem to fit well. Also Gap Tall, but they’re not for boobs.

ASOS, new look and Dorothy Perkins all have a tall section. I’m 5’10” tall, and use all 3.

Zara have quite a few blazers. Double breasted is back. Also look at M&S, Top Shop and Jaeger for better quality.
