I'm not normally one for animal prints, but you're really rocking that scarf, especially against your hair! Trench looks great, too.

I really like the leopard print scarf! You look fantastic in animal prints. Love the scarf with the leather jacket.

Sorry to be the odd one out, but I don't love the trench -- it's the two-button styling that doesn't appeal. What do you think?

Interesting, I had the opposite reaction to Laura's: I like the two button style a lot! Also the color and the collar.

Love the scarf and leather jacket too.

I think they both look great on you! They are different looks, so I'd say keep both if possible.

I like the trench. The leopard scarf is awesome! I want one of those for myself.

I really like the leopard scarf. The trench is cute, but it feels to me like something's missing. Maybe it's just the 2 buttons, or maybe it would look better with a belt.

I agree with Christine, I like the trench but I feel like it needs a belt.

I like the trench. I like the scarf.

I'm not sure if the leather jacket fits you properly. It's hard to tell in the photo. Can you take another photo further back? From what I can see...it's big in the shoulders, but short in the torso. It looks like too much of your shirt is peeking out. But again, it would be easier to tell if it was a full length photo.

The trench is good, but that black leather jacket/leopard scarf is great!

I like them both. The trench might be a size too big. What do you think?
The leather jacket is nice. I love the simplicity of it. It looks great on you.
I love the scarves too.

I love the leather style jean jacket! Maybe that's what I need to look for. You do scarves so well.
I'm not sure the trench is right for you. The color is great but the fit seems off, especially through the bust/underarm area it seems too big or the arm hole is cut too low. If you wear the coat over anything bulky though, you might want the extra room. Is there a smaller size to try?

Thanks everyone,
I am not sure about the trench, it is the smallest size. I really need a killer trench that is not black for the spring but maybe I should keep looking, I don't know when the best selection comes out. If I buy one I do want it to be just right. After seeing the photo I may need to take that one back.

Angie, what do you think?
Is there a style of trench that would work for me that anyone has come across?

I’m here!

Jean, I’d have pooped you into a belted trench. The colour is good, but the style isn’t great. I vote return.

The leopard scarf is KILLER. I love the idea of it with the leather jacket but it seems a little ill fitting. Try the scarf with your other leather jackets.

Angie, or anyone else , what is ill fitting about the leather jacket? Should I not wear it? I always thought it fit, maybe I am not seeing something.
I agree about the other coat, it is not perfect and although I love the color I am holding out for only things that I love. I would not have noticed that the style was a bit blah until I took a photo. Thanks everyone, it has gone back

Hi GG, I agree on your decision on the trench. The color is amazing on you, but I think you can find a better cut. The leopard scarf is killer, pure perfection. I like the leather jacket in theory, but something about the way it fits around the shoulders bugs me.

Jean, it might be the photo and the way you're holding your arm up, but the jacket looks a little boxy and big on the shoulder. I like this look best sleek. Does that make sense?

I thought the leather jacket looked big in teh shoulders, but too short in the torso.
