I totally get this full price thing, I have the same with shoes: you snooze you lose kind of thing It wold be nice to get it on discount though... You will let me know if you saw them in person, right?<br />Nicole, Lanai was actually a very good fit for me as was Gabe, the only problem was the length: too short. We may have different builds, I usually don't have troubles fitting jackets as I small busted and have a narrow upper body. My usual fitting issue with jackets is length of the torso and sleeves and&nbsp;&nbsp;sometimes too wide body because my shoulders are wide but my chest and back are narrow. Size 12 in Theory jackets fits me pretty well. Now, trousers is a VERY different story, it is a real pain in the butt to find the ones which fit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-all-this-theory-craziness#post-1070292 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 21:57:31 +0000 Nicole D 1070292@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, I was obsessed with Theory too til I tried the Lanai. &nbsp;Looked awful and the only place it fit was the sleeves. &nbsp;Made me feel fat! &nbsp;What a horrible thing to say, but it was discouraging. &nbsp;I was looking at the Ganella but now I'm not sure. &nbsp;Maybe Theory suiting is just not meant for those in my size range (kinda like Smythe and I am so bitter).&nbsp; Okay, pity party over!<br />I can totally see you in the Dancey! &nbsp;Any of them would be great but when I opened the Dancey, I just saw you! &nbsp;Like how they style it with blackwatch trousers. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-all-this-theory-craziness#post-1070202 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 20:43:19 +0000 Angie 1070202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just bought the ink Gabe B 2 full price because they never have my size at sale time. It is what it is and I'm fine with that.&nbsp;</p> <p>Sveta, the longer Theory&nbsp;blazers have excellent potential. I love them all for you - especially the Ganella. If anyone can rock the Kevina, it's you. I wasn't overly fond of&nbsp;the Donelly. It seemed oddly proportioned for a Theory blazer. I have not seen the others in person yet, but I might.</p> <p>Happy stalking. xo&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-all-this-theory-craziness#post-1069928 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 16:49:27 +0000 Sveta 1069928@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, I will risk to guess it would be the same one Angie got..:-)<br />Greyscale, thanks for this info. Boo, I just missed the window then. Have to keep it in mind for the next year.<br />Zap, NYC sounds like a fashion heaven! Ther is one more reason to make a trip there in the future. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-all-this-theory-craziness#post-1069370 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 03:20:47 +0000 Anonymous 1069370@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you ever come to NYC, go to Century 21. They often have Theory blazers, heavily discounted. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-all-this-theory-craziness#post-1069358 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 03:12:56 +0000 Greyscale 1069358@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Theory has a site-wide 25% off discount&nbsp;every fall. It ended a few weeks ago. They also mark things down on their website towards the end of the season, but a lot of things sell out before being marked down. But, I've done well by waiting for my favorites to go on sale. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-all-this-theory-craziness#post-1069357 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 03:12:47 +0000 Suz 1069357@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Their site is awful. It only includes a few items. They really aren't with the online world yet. Alas. So it would mean another trip to the city. I think waiting for the actual Theory sale and ordering online to the US is probably smartest. Or on sale from Nordstrom's. Or else the Bay in downtown Toronto, where they will have some of this stuff, although I am not sure how much or in what sizes. (They don't have Theory on their website, either...I checked....) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-all-this-theory-craziness#post-1069351 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 03:08:40 +0000 Sveta 1069351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, I cannot find Theory blazers on Holt's site </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-all-this-theory-craziness#post-1069344 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 03:04:35 +0000 Suz 1069344@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pssst. Sveta. They do have sales. And so does Holt's. Not huge sales. But they are having an "event" this weekend. As for Theory itself, I think they have one sale per season?&nbsp;</p> <p>Er, not to enable or anything.&nbsp;</p> <p>I may be purchasing a certain jacket during a promotion. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-all-this-theory-craziness#post-1069335 Thu, 31 Oct 2013 02:57:51 +0000 Sveta 1069335@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>...got me obsessed! Especially Angie's new ink blazer (I have not seen it yet but I am sure it is amazing). Unfortunately my foray into Theory brand last weekend proved that Gabe model is a bit short on me to be perfect even though overall fit is good.<br />I did try on <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.theory.com/Donelly-Wallner-Blazer/D0704101,default,pd.html?dwvar_D0704101_color=A00&amp;start=12&amp;cgid=womens-jackets-coats">Donelly </a>model and it was much better because it is about 1.5 - 2" longer.<br />So somehow I got to the Theory website today and this is what I found there:<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.theory.com/kevina-p-kapture-jacket/D1001104,default,pd.html?dwvar_D1001104_color=D0A&amp;start=1&amp;cgid=womens-jackets-coats">Kevina mode</a>l - dark blue and long! Actually maybe too long?<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.theory.com/Dancey-Reedly-Melange-Blazer/887717100694,default,pd.html">Dancey </a>in dark blue - the same length as Donelly I tried in the store so promising<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.theory.com/Ganella-Kapture-Blazer/887717143387,default,pd.html">Ganella</a> - burgundy, length between Dancey and Kevina. Not dark blue but burgundy may be a good color for me too?</p> <p>Angie, have you tried any of these models on yourself or on clients? What do you think of them for me?<br />Anyway they are quite pricey but maybe I can become a stalker? Anyway they are a bit less money than full price at Nordstrom...bad thing is I don't see any sale items there so maybe Theory does not have sales at all?! </p>
