It is a definite 10. Love the blouse too. You got some fab NAS stuff this year. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-nas-bernardo-quilted-leather-jacket#post-399220 Sat, 06 Aug 2011 11:31:34 +0000 Deborah 399220@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am echoing Angie and others, but my first thought was this jacket looks better on you that on the model. I think it's a keeper. It seems to fil well and is a lovely shape for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-nas-bernardo-quilted-leather-jacket#post-399148 Sat, 06 Aug 2011 05:29:09 +0000 mamaKate 399148@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Late to the party and Angie beat me to the punch, it looks better on you than the model. KEEP! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-nas-bernardo-quilted-leather-jacket#post-399067 Sat, 06 Aug 2011 02:36:54 +0000 marianna 399067@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this jacket. I tried it on and it fit me really weird in the shoulders... it fit my body but felt uncomfortably tight to move my arms (hard to describe). Keep and enjoy it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-nas-bernardo-quilted-leather-jacket#post-399066 Sat, 06 Aug 2011 02:35:23 +0000 Kappy 399066@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! Thanks for all the opinions. I guess this one isn't destined for the NAS fail pile. I just need to wait 3 months for cooler weather. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-nas-bernardo-quilted-leather-jacket#post-398912 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 23:30:21 +0000 rachylou 398912@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Forget all those other jackets. You're hot in this jacket. The model is not. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-nas-bernardo-quilted-leather-jacket#post-398810 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 21:13:13 +0000 Aida 398810@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FAB jacket and fit! It looks like it fits perfectly to me. Does it give you enough layering room (if that's something you're interested in)? I MUCH prefer the way this fits you over the baggy look on the model. Another vote for not perfectly matching your cognac boots This jacket would look great with black boots, too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-nas-bernardo-quilted-leather-jacket#post-398761 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 20:18:56 +0000 Ginkgo 398761@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I much prefer the fitted look of the jacket on you compared with the baggy look the model is sporting.

Do not worry about the zipping or bunching. </p> <p>And mismatched boots get my vote. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-nas-bernardo-quilted-leather-jacket#post-398645 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 18:31:24 +0000 Kappy 398645@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am determined to find the "PERFECT" leather jacket this season. I bought a less than perfect black leather moto and a few pleather jackets last season, but I don't want to settle this season.

This jacket has gorgeous detailing and is a rich, beautiful color! I think if you are doing to wear it as a lightweight piece--perhaps as an all day topper--keep as is; however, if you plan to wear with thicker gauge knits or other layers, then I would size up.</p> <p>Hope you are on the mend! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-nas-bernardo-quilted-leather-jacket#post-398619 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 17:56:41 +0000 amyreh 398619@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it is a beautiful jacket - but size up if you plan to layer over bulkier items I think. And I definitely don't think it needs to match your boots exactly - I would prefer it didn't! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-nas-bernardo-quilted-leather-jacket#post-398612 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 17:50:49 +0000 Jonesy 398612@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And if I'm not mistaken, melon stashing is a 3rd degree misdemeanor in most states :)!</p> <p>Srsly, I think this jacket looks beautiful on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-nas-bernardo-quilted-leather-jacket#post-398608 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 17:47:50 +0000 Kappy 398608@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just tried it on again, and I can easily zip it up all the way. I probably *wouldn't* because it looks like I stashed two melons in my jacket, but I can do it. Also, I wouldn't be able to wear this for a looooong time. Maybe October, definitely November. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-nas-bernardo-quilted-leather-jacket#post-398605 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 17:46:52 +0000 geetha 398605@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>if you cannot zip it up all the way (and still be able to move in it) don't get it. it's simply not practical having a jacket that you cannot close all the way. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-nas-bernardo-quilted-leather-jacket#post-398587 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 17:31:03 +0000 Vildy 398587@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll tell you my thinking about the zip issue. The model in the photo has the jacket<br /> partly unzipped over the chest but she's probably lean and straight and it looks<br /> boxy on her or "big." You look gorgeous in this jacket and it's much more<br /> appealing on you. But you have a very curvy figure to show off and if it's obvious<br /> that you couldn't possibly comfortably zip it over your chest - and I don't know<br /> from the photos whether it is - then people are going to be continually drawn to<br /> looking at where you're popping out. Would the next size up be just as<br /> flattering on you, who knows. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-nas-bernardo-quilted-leather-jacket#post-398578 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 17:19:50 +0000 morethanbeige 398578@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the jacket with the top. I think it is a fabulous look. As far as if you should try one size up, I'll leave that for others...I often struggle with this myself with leather jackets. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-nas-bernardo-quilted-leather-jacket#post-398572 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 17:17:09 +0000 rae 398572@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, it looks amazing on you - Good question on whether or not you will want to zip it, though. If you know you don't care about zipping, then that's a moot point. </p> <p>RE: matching the boots, I actually think it's better that they don't match perfectly. They will still bookend fine and the slight difference will look more effortless IMO. I think Angie also did a post about repeating a color using slightly different tones, though of course I cannot find it ATM. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-nas-bernardo-quilted-leather-jacket#post-398570 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 17:12:28 +0000 devon7 398570@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it from the front, but am a bit worried about the bunching in the back in photo #4. Is that because it's not zipped up all the way? It looks much better in photo #9, so maybe it's zipped up there. Would you wear it unzipped or zipped? I think it looks better zipped from the side and back views (it looks good both ways from the front), so it's more a matter of how you would wear it.</p> <p>Also, do you love it? Would you wear it right away if the weather was suitable for it? If not, perhaps you should hold out for something better. It's a beautiful jacket, but what matters most is if you truly love it. Just because the price was right doesn't make it right for you. I've made far too many mistakes in buying things that were on sale. Now I try to make sure I am itching to wear something. Otherwise, it goes back. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-nas-bernardo-quilted-leather-jacket#post-398568 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 17:09:57 +0000 rachylou 398568@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the jacket, like the colour, and I'm against matching this season. I like the fitted fit... but can you zip it all the way up comfortably? If you can, I'd keep it. If not, return. Although I admit I have a marc jacobs jacket that does not close all the way, but which I love and bought anyway.</p> <p>The top is great too IMO. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-nas-bernardo-quilted-leather-jacket#post-398563 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 17:07:15 +0000 Vildy 398563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can you zip this all the way if you want to? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-nas-bernardo-quilted-leather-jacket#post-398560 Fri, 05 Aug 2011 17:03:19 +0000 Kappy 398560@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, here's another NAS purchase (with a non-NAS purchase top). How does it fit? It;s so loose on the model and so tight on me. Maybe I should size up? Do you like it? Should I keep it? DH liked it, and I'm pretty sure I do.</p> <p>If it were slightly more cognac and less brown it would match my cognac boots, but it doesn't. Would it need to match my boots? Sigh, lots of questions. Thanks for any input. Keep (Yay) or Return (Nay).</p> <p>Jacket:<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/bernardo-distressed-lambskin-leather-jacket-plus/3184544?origin=keywordsearch&#038;resultback=0" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/be.....sultback=0</a><br /> Top:<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/tahari-woman-beth-knit-top-plus/3201632?origin=keywordsearch&#038;resultback=0" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/ta.....sultback=0</a> </p>
