The jacket looks more tailored this way whereas regular looked slightly boxier. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all---loft-lace-jacket-in-petite-or-regular#post-1231656 Thu, 24 Apr 2014 02:17:27 +0000 Aida 1231656@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I decided to look at the photos first to see which one got my gut, and it's definitely the petite (but as Angie said, not by much). I vote that one! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all---loft-lace-jacket-in-petite-or-regular#post-1231651 Thu, 24 Apr 2014 02:15:20 +0000 pastrygirl 1231651@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for petite! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all---loft-lace-jacket-in-petite-or-regular#post-1231625 Thu, 24 Apr 2014 01:51:44 +0000 Karie 1231625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous jacket! My vote is for petite. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all---loft-lace-jacket-in-petite-or-regular#post-1231624 Thu, 24 Apr 2014 01:50:31 +0000 Sveta 1231624@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think petite is &nbsp;little bit better. Great jacket on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all---loft-lace-jacket-in-petite-or-regular#post-1231618 Thu, 24 Apr 2014 01:46:53 +0000 pil 1231618@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the input everyone. FWIW I went with the petite after taking some more pictures. I liked the longer length of the regular but preferred the fit across the back of the petite - as well as the no alterations required sleeve length. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all---loft-lace-jacket-in-petite-or-regular#post-1229974 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 18:46:16 +0000 Gigi 1229974@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the petite looks better by far. The regular just seems a little "ho-hum," which is the effect I get when I wear misses' instead of petites' (I am short waisted). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all---loft-lace-jacket-in-petite-or-regular#post-1229959 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 18:35:25 +0000 texstyle 1229959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not sure which size to say but I love it on you pil! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all---loft-lace-jacket-in-petite-or-regular#post-1229909 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 17:50:08 +0000 pil 1229909@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, thanks for taking a look! Decisions, decisions!<br /> Suz, Jeanne and Astrid, thanks for the reminder to compare feel. I need to do a reach test too.<br /> Joyce and Dee, pictures are funny. When I hold the two side by side the only real difference in the sleeves is length, though the shoulder width and back length are wider and longer on the regular.<br /> Jules' comment about the boyfriend vibe of the regular, even though she preferred the petite, got me to thinking how even though I bought this for a wedding I'll probably wear it more with pants.<br /> Like Diana, I prefer the regular with the jeans -<br /> but as Merwoman commentented the petite is alteration free!<br /> Kellygirl, ha! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all---loft-lace-jacket-in-petite-or-regular#post-1229890 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 17:25:54 +0000 kellygirl 1229890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>At least I was only wrong by a hair. I think I prefer the regular length because that's what I have been wearing--more of a BF fit like Jules said. That's what I'm telling myself at least </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all---loft-lace-jacket-in-petite-or-regular#post-1229866 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 16:58:28 +0000 merwoman 1229866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>without looking at the responses I went back and forth - and decided petite.<br />The jacket lengths look similar, but petite seems to fit you better across the back - less fabric wrinkling. Also petite sleeve length looks spot on - no alterations necessary. Gorgeous jacket btw, and I like how you're styling it. It's so versatile - dress it up and dress it down! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all---loft-lace-jacket-in-petite-or-regular#post-1229859 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 16:49:53 +0000 Joyce B 1229859@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the petite. The sleeves seem a bit long and wide in the regular. The petite length is a bit shorter overall and looks nicer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all---loft-lace-jacket-in-petite-or-regular#post-1229858 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 16:49:25 +0000 Dee 1229858@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the petite. I think it's just a tad shorter and works better with the dresses, and also maybe fits a little better across the back? Although that may just be the pictures. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all---loft-lace-jacket-in-petite-or-regular#post-1229850 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 16:37:47 +0000 Diana 1229850@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote for the regular although I think they are both good.&nbsp; I prefer the longer length with the jeans and I think both work with the dress outfits.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all---loft-lace-jacket-in-petite-or-regular#post-1229833 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 16:26:34 +0000 Astrid 1229833@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the jacket on you! I think petite looks just a tad better in the pictures, but how does it feel? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all---loft-lace-jacket-in-petite-or-regular#post-1229828 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 16:22:57 +0000 Jjsloane 1229828@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the jacket and both seem good - and only slightly different. Go with your gut on this in how they feel (can you move your arms the same in both? try the sitting test,) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all---loft-lace-jacket-in-petite-or-regular#post-1229823 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 16:17:17 +0000 Angie 1229823@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Prefer the petite by a hair. Gorgeous on you, Pil. Wow. #1 is Killer.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all---loft-lace-jacket-in-petite-or-regular#post-1229784 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 15:40:01 +0000 Jules 1229784@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Prefer the petite! So perfect on you! I think the petite works with the feminine vibe of this blazer. The other one looks a bit more boyfriend-y in fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all---loft-lace-jacket-in-petite-or-regular#post-1229781 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 15:39:30 +0000 kellygirl 1229781@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gosh, that is so pretty on &nbsp;you. I'm not a jacket expert by any stretch of the imagination but I prefer the regular size on you. To my eye, the petite looks too short in the body. Will be checking back in to see what I missed since I'm probably wrong!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all---loft-lace-jacket-in-petite-or-regular#post-1229780 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 15:39:06 +0000 Suz 1229780@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gosh. The difference is subtle (well, on my laptop, with my ancient eyes). Which one feels better?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all---loft-lace-jacket-in-petite-or-regular#post-1229777 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 15:37:17 +0000 pil 1229777@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, so tricky to load similar photos from the phone! They did load correctly so 1-4 is the petite and 5-8 is the regular. I wore outfits with slightly different hem and necklines so I could differentiate. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all---loft-lace-jacket-in-petite-or-regular#post-1229770 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 15:30:51 +0000 Suz 1229770@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a feeling the pictures might not be loaded right, Pil. I do love the jacket on you and am so glad you ordered it! Will come back later to see edits to photos.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all---loft-lace-jacket-in-petite-or-regular#post-1229762 Tue, 22 Apr 2014 15:20:11 +0000 pil 1229762@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry about the bad pictures, I hope the bright sun doesn't make it too difficult to judge. Kind of funny since I've been hoping for sun!</p> <p>The Loft lace jacket came yesterday. Since the sleeves are too long I ended up ordering a petite as well and am wondering which to keep. Per your suggestion I also styled it with boyfriend jeans and decided to wear my Birkenstocks.</p> <p>I hope to be able to wear this to a Labor Day weekend wedding.</p> <p>If the pictures load as I hope:<br /> 1-4 are the petite with a dress and boyfriend jeans.<br /> 5-8 are the regular with Halogen skirt/Dobbin tank and boyfriend jeans - with the sleeves tucked up a hem length.</p> <p>I would like to be able to wear it with a skirt/dress and the jeans so if neither work, I'm ok with sending both back.</p> <p>Thanks! </p>
