I'm returning two *cashmere* sweaters for itchiness. You just gotta be comfortable in your clothes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ef-jacket-received-and-will-be-returned#post-1827389 Fri, 21 Jul 2017 20:30:07 +0000 JAileen 1827389@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm so sorry it wasn't what you expected. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ef-jacket-received-and-will-be-returned#post-1827382 Fri, 21 Jul 2017 20:19:21 +0000 Anonymous 1827382@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is disappointing.

On my monitor, it's also a purplish-blue. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ef-jacket-received-and-will-be-returned#post-1827328 Fri, 21 Jul 2017 19:04:25 +0000 Barbara Diane 1827328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Bridgie</b> and <b>Knitting Gene,&nbsp;</b>thanks for the support. Luckily, the itching made the choice clear, so I'm not wavering. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ef-jacket-received-and-will-be-returned#post-1827325 Fri, 21 Jul 2017 19:00:00 +0000 Suz 1827325@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, that is too bad. You were really looking forward to this one. I see it as a sort of purplish bright blue on my monitor. That is one disadvantage of online shopping for sure. Colour reproduction can be iffy.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm so sorry it didn't work out. But, onwards! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ef-jacket-received-and-will-be-returned#post-1827318 Fri, 21 Jul 2017 18:31:13 +0000 KnittingGene 1827318@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh that is sad but sounds like you're confident in your choice. What a poor decision by your local store not to carry plus sizes. Very frustrating. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ef-jacket-received-and-will-be-returned#post-1827314 Fri, 21 Jul 2017 18:26:30 +0000 bridgie 1827314@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Barbara Diane, I am sorry the jacket did not work for you.&nbsp; I think returning it was the right thing to do. Something better will come along for you!&nbsp; Hopefully, real soon. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ef-jacket-received-and-will-be-returned#post-1827303 Fri, 21 Jul 2017 17:57:51 +0000 Barbara Diane 1827303@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was beginning to question my purchase before it arrived. I had many needs, and this was not one of them. I had not made any other NAS purchases.However, I was looking forward to upping my style with this jacket as the incentive. Same mistake I made with sheath dresses last year.<br />I admit it, I get so excited to fit into non-plus sized clothing that I tend to make slightly off purchases. Note, yes,this is a size/head thing, but it is also the fact that my Nordstrom doesn't have an Encore department. It is so nice to see something, try it on, know it fits, and order it.</p> <p>So, for the important information. I saw it in one color in store, and ordered it in the other. Here are the pros and the cons.</p> <p>1. The fit is still fabulous on me. It fit perfectly, just like on the model.<br />2.&nbsp;On both my monitor and the SA's monitor, the jacket appears to be a fairly bright cobalt blue. IRL it is a heathered? navy. So not the statement color I wanted,<br />3, I don't know how I missed it in store, but I am VERY sensitive to wool and when I put it on at home my neck started itching in 2 seconds.<br />4. If you don't tend to be extremely sensitive to wool, it is about as soft and comfortable as can be and look this polished. It is knitted material, cut and sewn into a jacket.&nbsp;<br />5. The edges weren't finished, which makes me wonder how well they will last, given the material. </p>
