Beautiful jacket, however. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/between-these-two-leather-jackets#post-1708005 Thu, 04 Aug 2016 13:12:50 +0000 AZBeth 1708005@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>HI April,</p> <p>The Marc Ink jacket was beautiful but it wasn't exactly what I was looking for since I want to use as an indoor jacket didn't feel like one I would wear indoors so I kept the Halogen pieced leather jacket.</p> <p>Beth </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/between-these-two-leather-jackets#post-1707991 Thu, 04 Aug 2016 12:43:48 +0000 April 1707991@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FRCD -- although some of these definitely look black at a glance, they're actually all either deep blue or deep green. &nbsp;Which is the one you found cool and modern? &nbsp;I'll definitely keep your assessment in mind as I make my decision!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/between-these-two-leather-jackets#post-1707970 Thu, 04 Aug 2016 12:12:19 +0000 FashionRCD 1707970@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the black one and it's cool and modern. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/between-these-two-leather-jackets#post-1707959 Thu, 04 Aug 2016 11:46:47 +0000 April 1707959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Brooklyn, it is a gorgeous jacket and I do hope it works for you! &nbsp;It's possible that I just got one that was oddly made -- that happens.</p> <p>Keep us posted. &nbsp;</p> <p>AZBeth -- did your Marc ink blue jacket work out? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/between-these-two-leather-jackets#post-1707905 Thu, 04 Aug 2016 04:37:54 +0000 Brooklyn 1707905@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I already&nbsp;ordered the Sam Edelman jacket. Now I am worried. But I do have broad shoulders, so hopefully it will be OK... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/between-these-two-leather-jackets#post-1707695 Wed, 03 Aug 2016 19:02:35 +0000 April 1707695@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aquamarine, the XS looks better from a fit perspective, but for practicality, if I actually wanted to put a sweater beneath it, it would be *very* snug. </p> <p>I am now waiting on yet another green one: <a href="http://m.shop.nordstrom.com/s/truth-pride-hip-leather-jacket/4391072?origin=keywordsearch-personalizedsort&#038;fashioncolor=DARK%20GREEN" rel="nofollow">http://m.shop.nordstrom.com/s/.....RK%20GREEN</a> to compare. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/between-these-two-leather-jackets#post-1705970 Sun, 31 Jul 2016 13:19:19 +0000 Suz 1705970@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking forward to your final report! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/between-these-two-leather-jackets#post-1705966 Sun, 31 Jul 2016 13:11:24 +0000 Aquamarine 1705966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I ordered the blue Marc too, in my regular size and one size down despite the recommendation to size up, knowing leather will stretch. Curious to see how it fits you and what you think, April. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/between-these-two-leather-jackets#post-1705952 Sun, 31 Jul 2016 12:36:51 +0000 April 1705952@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>UPDATE: </p> <p>DS came home and immediately agreed with DH about the ink blue Marc jacket: too big. &nbsp;</p> <p>The green Sam Edelman jacket had arrived by then and they both said there was something wonky about the cut. &nbsp;It fit beautifully except in the shoulders, which looked like they needed some extra padding inside to fill them out. (!!!) &nbsp;This never happens to me. &nbsp;Usually the shoulders on things are too tight.</p> <p>So now I'm waiting on the XS in the ink blue Marc jacket. &nbsp;Cross your fingers! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/between-these-two-leather-jackets#post-1704554 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 20:50:56 +0000 JAileen 1704554@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For you, wait and see which fits better and which best brings out your own coloring. For me, I would get the blue one. If the green were olive, though, then I would be in a quandry. But still, fit and how the color looks on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/between-these-two-leather-jackets#post-1704550 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 20:46:38 +0000 Lisa 1704550@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote green for you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/between-these-two-leather-jackets#post-1704411 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 16:52:31 +0000 Cerinda 1704411@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They're both smashing! &nbsp;So you are free to choose just on fit and feel; lucky you!&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/between-these-two-leather-jackets#post-1704405 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 16:48:48 +0000 Diana 1704405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree it's going to depend on how long your torso is and also your length preference.&nbsp; The blue looks to be shorter and more suited to a shorter torso with the higher lapels and waist,etc.&nbsp; For me (a very short waisted person) the green would almost certainly be too long and even the blue might be too long.&nbsp; Personally, I prefer motos to be on the shorter side especially if you want to wear it closed.&nbsp; Both colors are gorgeous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/between-these-two-leather-jackets#post-1704396 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 16:41:18 +0000 Liz A. 1704396@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How is the length on the Marc for you? &nbsp;I have a long torso, so the length would be a big consideration for me (the green is longer). Personally, I prefer the look of the green, but obviously would need to see them on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/between-these-two-leather-jackets#post-1704385 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 16:28:58 +0000 AZBeth 1704385@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have ordered the Marc New York in Ink.... impatiently waiting its arrival... it is not scheduled to arrive until Monday!! Can't wait to see this on you. So I vote for the Marc. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/between-these-two-leather-jackets#post-1704374 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 16:15:45 +0000 Angie 1704374@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Get the XS in both and you will look extra amazing in the green. Matches your mesmerizing light green eyes.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/between-these-two-leather-jackets#post-1704368 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 16:05:13 +0000 April 1704368@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Suz. &nbsp;I haven't seen the green one IRL yet, so I'm not certain about which color I prefer.</p> <p>I have had to give away two green leather jackets (one because -- some of you may remember -- I couldn't get rid of its heavy musty smell, and one because it was just too snug in the shoulders so it went to a dainty-shouldered niece) so I would love to have a green one, but I have never had -- and have long wanted -- an ink blue one, so there's no real help there.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/between-these-two-leather-jackets#post-1704358 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 15:48:45 +0000 Suz 1704358@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them both. The second one appears a bit softer than the first, but that may not turn out to be true. Do you have a preference for the colour?&nbsp;</p> <p>Will you wear mostly with pants? One looks a bit more cropped than the other (blue vs. green) but that may turn out to be mistaken also. SO hard to tell from the stock photos.&nbsp;</p> <p>I think both are beautiful and you can't go wrong. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/between-these-two-leather-jackets#post-1704356 Thu, 28 Jul 2016 15:44:38 +0000 April 1704356@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay, I only have these stock photos right now, but will get photos of myself in these when a.) one of them arrives in the mail, and b.) my photographer son arrives home for the weekend.</p> <p>I have this Marc New York leather jacket in the "Ink" color. &nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/marc-new-york-by-andrew-marc-liv-lambskin-leather-jacket/4344027?origin=category-personalizedsort&amp;fashioncolor=INK">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/ma.....27?origin=</a></p> <p>I got a size S, which my husband thinks is a little too roomy on me, but I fear if I get an XS, I won't be able to fit a light sweater beneath it when leather jacket season arrives.</p> <p>I also ordered this Sam Edelman one <a rel="nofollow" href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/sam-edelman-pintucked-leather-jacket/4356201?origin=category-personalizedsort&amp;fashioncolor=ARAGON">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/sa.....ersonalize</a>&nbsp;in the "Aragon" green. &nbsp;If it arrives by the weekend, when DS comes home, I will have him photograph me in both and you ladies can give me your opinions. &nbsp;</p> <p>But in the meatime, any thoughts? </p>
