It's a good lesson for me because I always ignore those class action suit letters. The jacket looks like it will become a real workhorse. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/edgy-tweed-a-zara-double-windfall#post-1640210 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 14:09:09 +0000 Anonymous 1640210@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the jacket!

Wow! It's like the heavens wanted you to get that piece.&nbsp;<br />It is indeed beautiful on you. It complements your lovely long locks.&nbsp;<br />Fabric: the question is, how do you feel in it? If you feel at all uncomfortable, restricted, too hot, then it's no good. Today's synthetics can be very enjoyable, so if this one is not, pass. If it feels cosy and fitting, do keep though, because it looks great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/edgy-tweed-a-zara-double-windfall#post-1640107 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 09:16:17 +0000 Anonymous 1640107@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I absolutely 100 percent love it. &nbsp;It is perfection. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/edgy-tweed-a-zara-double-windfall#post-1640035 Wed, 06 Apr 2016 03:09:41 +0000 Debbie 1640035@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this jacket on you!

Interesting your theory on Zara - might need to take another look at their higher-end stuff. Woohoo to a cash windfall. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/edgy-tweed-a-zara-double-windfall#post-1639877 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 21:38:11 +0000 Greyscale 1639877@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's lined, yes, but the lining isn't bonded to the tweed so it doesn't help much. The edges are my real concern and those aren't lined. But I'll risk it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/edgy-tweed-a-zara-double-windfall#post-1639853 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 21:22:27 +0000 catgirl 1639853@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Is it lined?&nbsp; That might help hold it together.&nbsp; I saw another similar jacket I liked at H&amp;M but it looked like a 3rd grade crochet project that would unravel at the first snag.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/edgy-tweed-a-zara-double-windfall#post-1639852 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 21:22:20 +0000 Greyscale 1639852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Also, a thought on Zara - their basics are hit or miss, often flimsy or not cut in my shape. But with their higher-end pieces I find a killer statement item once or twice a year. Unfortunately, those almost never go on sale at the end of the season. I have to decide if I want to jump on something right away or miss it entirely. So the prices are honestly higher than I usually spend at other stores. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/edgy-tweed-a-zara-double-windfall#post-1639840 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 21:15:03 +0000 Greyscale 1639840@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Alaskagirl</b> - The shoulders are surprisingly great on me. That's one reason I fell in love with it - it's so rare for me to find a jacket in that shape that's not too tight in the shoulders. This is a small. The XS was too tight. To calibrate: I've been tending towards S rather than XS in many brands recently, though like many Zara things, this does run a little smaller than some brands.</p> <p><b>Diana, Deb&nbsp;</b>- You're right about the fabric not touching my skin, and I agree, synthetics in tight pants bother me the most.</p> <p><b>Rachy&nbsp;</b>- I can totally picture you in this type of tweed, or the ones with crazy color highlights like Angie's new outfit.</p> <p><b>Smittie</b> - I tried it with a black tee but it didn't photograph well, and then I realized that it's way better with white even in real life. I don't wear a lot of white tees but I think I'll need to buy a few more.</p> <p>I will say that the raw edges on this fabric fray very easily (by design). I need to clean this one up with scissors before I wear it for the first time.&nbsp;I might even consider putting some fabric glue on the inside to hold the hems in place. Does that work? Obviously the frayed look is intentional but I don't want it to get too ratty over time. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/edgy-tweed-a-zara-double-windfall#post-1639801 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 20:42:41 +0000 deb 1639801@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute jacket and I think you are meant to have it since the funds came from Zara. It is easier to listen my fabric standards when it comes to toppers. I think it is because they are not directly against my skin. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/edgy-tweed-a-zara-double-windfall#post-1639754 Tue, 05 Apr 2016 19:30:11 +0000 rachylou 1639754@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok ok!
