I don't like the trend towards fast fashion which shops like Zara are infamous for. If I buy something there, I expect to wear it and for it to last, the same as other purchases. I only buy items from Zara that I feel are good quality and I will wear.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-53/page/2#post-1812793 Sun, 04 Jun 2017 21:49:22 +0000 Jenni NZ 1812793@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I only have the one item from Zara, the floral orange top that I posted, calling it "unloved". I loved it when I bought it but find it difficult to wear. At that stage we had no Zara here and I bought that in Melbourne. Now we have Zara but it is a 40 minute drive away across the city. It was good to see they got an "A" on the Baptist World Aid Australia ethical fashion report, but I still feel a little uneasy due to the sheer volume of clothing they produce.... and I am trying to shop less anyway! If later I get a really specific need though, I may take a trip to look x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-53/page/2#post-1812679 Sun, 04 Jun 2017 13:05:33 +0000 Bijou 1812679@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Jenni </b>- so glad you like it. Zara is funny, I can go in there and find absolutely nothing and other times find a few treasures. Definitely a bit hit and miss for me, so it is wonderful to get the YLF seal of approval on this one.</p> <p><b>Chris987</b> - thank you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-53/page/2#post-1812664 Sun, 04 Jun 2017 11:33:40 +0000 Chris987 1812664@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keep! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-53/page/2#post-1812661 Sun, 04 Jun 2017 10:54:49 +0000 Jenni NZ 1812661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well I'm late but totally agree, it is beautiful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-53/page/2#post-1812621 Sun, 04 Jun 2017 02:48:50 +0000 Bijou 1812621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Joy</b>, you make me laugh, I had not thought about a co-ordinating umbrella, but now I want one!</p> <p><b>Rachy</b> - I honestly think some jackets are designed for their look rather than function. Not particularly sensible when it comes to raincoats. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-53/page/2#post-1812607 Sat, 03 Jun 2017 22:44:18 +0000 Anonymous 1812607@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A keeper.

I have a traditional trench, but it is way too heavy for tropical conditions.</p> <p><b>Iozz oz </b>- thank you. It is definitely more fun than a usual drab raincoat.</p> <p><b>Harmonica &amp; Diana </b>- thank you for the feedback. I was not sure on this, so it is so nice to be able to tap into the fashion wisdom of my YLF friends to make a call on a wildcard item.</p> <p><b>Inge </b>- I so appreciate your thoughts on this. Lovely to hear that the gold works for me.</p> <p><b>Staysfit&nbsp;</b>- Thanks for the yes vote. I was a bit worried about buying this, but decided to take it home on the proviso that I got my YLF seal of approval. </p> <p><b>Tulle </b>it is likely to be a nice topper in the evening, in addition to its function as a raincoat. Thanks for mentioning this, as travelling it is nice to have versatile pieces. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-53#post-1812250 Fri, 02 Jun 2017 12:54:35 +0000 tulle 1812250@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE it on you--what a lift on a rainy day! It looks perfect for travel, too, and you may even find yourself building outfits around it.&nbsp; I have a couple of silky raincoats, and have discovered how useful a lightweight, shimmery coat can be in dressing up a basic look for evening. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-53#post-1812240 Fri, 02 Jun 2017 10:52:19 +0000 Staysfit 1812240@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-53#post-1812216 Fri, 02 Jun 2017 08:11:14 +0000 Inge 1812216@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh I think it's perfect! The gold does not look over the top at all, just interesting, modern and great with your complexion. Love the fit and drape too. And it sounds perfect for rainy weather both at home and on your trips.</p> <p>I vote keep!-) </p>
