They are in your wardrobe for YOUR pleasure. Get the jacket and wear your fab new shoes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cotton-moto-jacket-pass-or-explore#post-52033 Wed, 25 Feb 2009 10:40:35 +0000 Inge 52033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm keeping my fingers crossed that the jacket will still be there Tam.</p> <p>Looking forward to your leather jacket thread. It will be a good opportunity to see what's out there;-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cotton-moto-jacket-pass-or-explore#post-52028 Wed, 25 Feb 2009 09:35:08 +0000 yublocka 52028@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh now I am wishing I had listened to my Mum and bought it whilst making up my mind. She is the queen of returning things. </p> <p>I do love the moto look, I just wonder how much wear I'll get out of it. I don't think I'd wear it whilst at work (maybe on the way too and from). I would have to force myself to wear it as a casual or smart casual top and not just save it for special occasions. Kind of like I am having to do with my shoes that I have had sitting there but never worn. I don't really have an everyday jacket apart from a denim one, so its a good place to start.</p> <p>Well looks like I may need to go back to that shopping centre this weekend. Good excuse to go have one of the cheap pedicures there. Now I'll be bummed if its gone!!!</p> <p>Inge I will definitely take you up on that offer of leather jacket searching!!!! I'll start a new thread for that - probably on the weekend!! Thanks so much for offering - its lovely of you!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cotton-moto-jacket-pass-or-explore#post-51941 Tue, 24 Feb 2009 18:47:33 +0000 Inge 51941@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree Tam: go get it! It's such a fun and beautiful jacket.</p> <p>And of course you can have more than one, I'd be happy to have a few in my closet;-)</p> <p>By the way: do you have a preference for a specific colour for the leather one? Perhaps we could help you look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cotton-moto-jacket-pass-or-explore#post-51934 Tue, 24 Feb 2009 18:16:35 +0000 Angie 51934@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Get! It's fab. </p> <p>There is room for many variations if you love the look, Tam. I am still searching for the perfect cream biker jacket with silver hardware and I have three biker-inspired jackets already. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cotton-moto-jacket-pass-or-explore#post-51907 Tue, 24 Feb 2009 15:42:41 +0000 Tanya 51907@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The jacket is gorgeous and I would definitely get it! And because it's hounds tooth it would look amazing with jeans.</p> <p>I do not think you are crazy at all. If moto jackets suit your lifestyle, you can have as many as you want as long as they are different. I have a leather one and am hoping to get two more: one cotton, and one really casual made from sweatshirt like material. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cotton-moto-jacket-pass-or-explore#post-51891 Tue, 24 Feb 2009 13:10:56 +0000 Lee Hovey 51891@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really love the jacket and could see it really smarting up a casual outfit well. And you could mix it with alot of colors.</p> <p>As for if you are crazy to get it and then shop for a leather, I say, not if you will get use out of both!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cotton-moto-jacket-pass-or-explore#post-51886 Tue, 24 Feb 2009 10:37:46 +0000 yublocka 51886@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So while I was at the shops on the weekend I ran across a lightweight cotton moto jacket by Ben Sherman. The print was a really fine houndstooth that looked a light grey from far away. I had seen and tried it on before, but still wasn't sure if I should take the plunge or no.</p> <p>The pluses:</p> <p>- its a moto jacket<br /> - fit was great<br /> - up close i loved the houndstooth<br /> - lightweight means i can start wearing it sooner rather than later</p> <p>The minuses:</p> <p>- Its not leather. What I really need for my bike is a leather (or some other windproof) material.<br /> - From a distance you can't make out the print, so its more a light grey colour.</p> <p>I didn't have my camera (shame!) so I couldn't take pics but I think its this one also listed on their UK site:</p> <p><a href="http://www.bensherman.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product2_11052_-1_13972_23897_10551_13963" rel="nofollow">http://www.bensherman.com/weba.....0551_13963</a></p> <p>Would I be crazy to get one moto jacket and then look for another in leather still? What about the pattern not being evident from far away?</p> <p>Appreciate any input. There was only 1 left so I'm kinda worried this will be a moot point anyway!</p> <p>tam </p>
