That's why I posted this thread to get Angie's opinion. I was confused and knew she'd bring me clarity! I feel kind of bad for wasting everyone's time with my previous K/R threads on this jacket!</p> <p>Note to myself: no more shopping when Angie is away! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie---i-think-i-need-your-opinion#post-602050 Mon, 23 Apr 2012 16:26:31 +0000 Sveta 602050@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is why it is great to have Angie back! One word from her and everything is clear as day - and we were pondering on this jacket for such a long time!:-)<br /> Note to myself: need to pay more attention to shoulder fit in the future - on myself and on others! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie---i-think-i-need-your-opinion#post-602031 Mon, 23 Apr 2012 16:17:02 +0000 Transcona Shannon 602031@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And this is why you're the best Angie! Thank you for your words of wisdom - I will re-donate the jacket and move forward. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie---i-think-i-need-your-opinion#post-602017 Mon, 23 Apr 2012 16:06:52 +0000 Isabel 602017@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bummer !! It is a fab coat. I agree ( I HAVE to , it is Angie, afterall ) that even if you take it in by the princess seams, the armholes will still be too big. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie---i-think-i-need-your-opinion#post-602010 Mon, 23 Apr 2012 15:59:48 +0000 Angie 602010@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This jacket is a size too big, Shannon. It's supposed to be a tailored jacket, but does not fit that way. It looks best in #5 because you manipulated the fit to look more "boyfriend-y". </p> <p>The fit will still be too large on the shoulder, and long in the armhole, if you nip in the waist. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/angie---i-think-i-need-your-opinion#post-601984 Mon, 23 Apr 2012 15:05:59 +0000 Transcona Shannon 601984@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>While you were away, I thrifted this green jacket. There's been much discussion (yay and nay). I'm keeping it but am wondering if I should have the sides nipped in a bit at the waist or keep the boxy shape? Was I off the mark in picking this up? </p>
