I like it like that! </p> <p>Laura, you HAVE TO be my '80s style sister. Pull the trigger. Pink hair and all </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blast-from-the-80s-past/page/2#post-947084 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 02:06:29 +0000 Laura 947084@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>At this point I have zero justification for buying a denim jacket but Angie,&nbsp;if you pulled the trigger I have no idea how I am supposed to resist! Still resisting -- for now </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blast-from-the-80s-past/page/2#post-946989 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 23:07:35 +0000 Sveta 946989@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, I just came back from the Gap where I tried this jacket on. How does it suppose to fit? M was too snug but L while fits in the shoulders an hips feels loose in the body. Does it suppose to fit like this? Also I did not realize the sleeves are 3/4...not sure if this is a deal breaker or now.<br />I think I will order size L in regular and tall anyway so I can decide at home...and get your opinion too. I really like the wash and the fact that it is a biker style and different from my other denim jackets. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blast-from-the-80s-past/page/2#post-946879 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 17:50:25 +0000 Angie 946879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Ali and Janet :)</p> <p>Marley, I retired some jackets in Dec, Jan and Mar, so there is room for jackets in my wardrobe.&nbsp; I am VERY STRICT about the available space in my wardrobe. Nothing is allowed to look cramped or overflowing - so I have to edit in order to refill. And I have more room in fact! I am editing for the pending arrival of new Fall &amp; Winter jackets too. Good question :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blast-from-the-80s-past/page/2#post-946861 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 17:12:44 +0000 Marley 946861@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great jacket!&nbsp; Angie - I'm curious - I know you practice the 'one in - one out' philosophy.&nbsp; Will you retire one of your other jackets to make room for this one?&nbsp; Or, because this was a "from the heart" purchase -&nbsp;will it be an addition, rather than a replacement? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blast-from-the-80s-past/page/2#post-946858 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 16:42:33 +0000 Anonymous 946858@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ha ha ha!!!!</p> <p>So glad you caved, Angie!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blast-from-the-80s-past/page/2#post-946854 Sun, 02 Jun 2013 16:03:28 +0000 Janet 946854@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aha!

Cost per wear on great denim jackets has to be pennies in a short time. Rosie would want her mommy to wear this on walks </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blast-from-the-80s-past#post-945394 Fri, 31 May 2013 02:11:07 +0000 Carole 945394@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, have been there and done that:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blast-from-the-80s-past#post-945381 Fri, 31 May 2013 02:06:15 +0000 Angie 945381@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I haven't seen the Zara version, Sveta. This one is from the Gap. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blast-from-the-80s-past#post-945368 Fri, 31 May 2013 02:00:25 +0000 Sveta 945368@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Angie, how timely! I was looking at <a href="https://www.zara.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ShopCartPage?calculationUsageId=-1&amp;updatePrices=1&amp;catalogId=24056&amp;orderId=.&amp;langId=-1&amp;storeId=11715&amp;URL=ShopCartPage" rel="nofollow">this one at Zara </a>thinking that it would be a nice change from a regular denim jacket - I don't have a single biker jacket yet - and this Gap one looks pretty similar. Have you seen Zara one? How do they compare? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blast-from-the-80s-past#post-945363 Fri, 31 May 2013 01:58:44 +0000 Angie 945363@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blast-from-the-80s-past#post-945350 Fri, 31 May 2013 01:50:33 +0000 Jaime 945350@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the light denim jacket - since I was oblivious in the 80's it looks new to me! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blast-from-the-80s-past#post-945340 Fri, 31 May 2013 01:44:07 +0000 Parsley 945340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blast-from-the-80s-past#post-945334 Fri, 31 May 2013 01:38:22 +0000 Angie 945334@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I eventually tried it too and IT WAS GORGEOUS ON!</p> <p>I need another denim jacket like I need a hole in my head. But I can't stop thinking about this nostalgic beauty. </p>
