What a fit those are on you, just lovely! Oh yes, I also vote small for the jacket. Nice color on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr----spring-leather-jacket#post-587483 Wed, 04 Apr 2012 16:34:28 +0000 Meredith1953 587483@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>CocoLion,<br /> What a beautiful color and style of jacket on you! And I love it with the yellow pants particularly although it also looks great with the denim. Sizing down would be a great idea, but I have my gray faux leather and I know it is a little "roomy" but I love it anyway! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr----spring-leather-jacket#post-586246 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 13:15:18 +0000 Kirti 586246@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If it is too big in the shoulders, you should get a small. Lovely jacket though </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr----spring-leather-jacket#post-586205 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 12:12:46 +0000 Jjsloane 586205@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another vote for the smaller one! This is beautiful and works nicely with the yellow skinnies, but seems it could work well with a lot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr----spring-leather-jacket#post-586204 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 12:10:01 +0000 Janet 586204@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great jacket! I hope you can get it a size smaller. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr----spring-leather-jacket#post-586177 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 10:58:18 +0000 Anonymous 586177@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is hard to look at the jacket when we have those yellow skinnies in front of us!<br /> I think a size down is best. I did ask a similar question a while back and I think the consensus is that leather will stretch out a lot, so its best to buy snug.<br /> It held true for me. My lambskin leather one got soo big, I'm looking for a replacement. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr----spring-leather-jacket#post-586173 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 10:28:49 +0000 Meghan R 586173@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous jacket!

Hope the size down works better! If not, would it be possible to alter this one at all? Or isn't it worthwhile? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr----spring-leather-jacket#post-586129 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 07:36:38 +0000 Deborah 586129@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great but glad you are sizing down. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr----spring-leather-jacket#post-585966 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 01:53:04 +0000 Angie 585966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking forward to seeing the small.

Definitely agree about the sizing down. Good luck! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr----spring-leather-jacket#post-585917 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 01:20:11 +0000 celia 585917@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks a little roomy. perhaps a smaller size would be better.<br /> it is a lovely jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr----spring-leather-jacket#post-585896 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 01:01:08 +0000 Jaime 585896@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agree it might be big but looks good nonetheless. Love the neon pop in #2, and how the jacket looks with dark jeans in 5. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr----spring-leather-jacket#post-585893 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 00:56:30 +0000 catgirl 585893@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ooh, love it. Can't wait to see it in a size down. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr----spring-leather-jacket#post-585879 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 00:32:56 +0000 Mo 585879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll be curious to see the small on you. I twice almost pulled the trigger on a drapey BB Dakota leather jacket last year but never did. If this is a success for you, it might be my pick instead of a stop gap faux one this fall! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr----spring-leather-jacket#post-585867 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 00:16:59 +0000 CocoLion 585867@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Victoria and Alicat! I just ordered the small, we'll see how it compares. It ships from San Diego so should be here by the end of the week. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr----spring-leather-jacket#post-585862 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 00:07:42 +0000 Victoria 585862@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the jacket and how you styled it with yellow jeans! But I do agree with everyone, may be try a small? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr----spring-leather-jacket#post-585828 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 23:02:31 +0000 Anonymous 585828@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful jacket! I also vote for trying the smaller size. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr----spring-leather-jacket#post-585827 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 23:01:34 +0000 CocoLion 585827@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kelly and Emily -- thanks for looking. I think the shoulders bug me the most, they are hanging past my shoulder point which makes the sleeves even longer.</p> <p>Yes it is buttery soft and lightweight, perfect for spring or even summers indoors. It is unlined which makes it lighter but also makes it tricky to layer over sleeved tops. But I still like it a lot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr----spring-leather-jacket#post-585822 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 22:56:24 +0000 Emily 585822@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks big to me too - I would try the small. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr----spring-leather-jacket#post-585816 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 22:44:52 +0000 kellygirl 585816@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous jacket. It looks buttery soft and fabulously drapey. I think it looks a bit roomy--perhaps sizing down would be a good idea. Since this is a spring piece you won't be layering much under, right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr----spring-leather-jacket#post-585810 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 22:39:49 +0000 CocoLion 585810@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have been hunting for a lightweight spring leather jacket and this one fit the bill.</p> <p><a href="http://www.djpremium.com/shop/G1-V193076-R0-P1178034/bb-dakota/kiona-lightweight-pig-nappa-jacket.html" rel="nofollow">http://www.djpremium.com/shop/.....acket.html</a></p> <p>The same BB Dakota jacket but in a slightly peachier color is available at Shopbop.<br /> <a href="http://www.shopbop.com/kionia-leather-jacket-bb-dakota/vp/v=1/845524441929775.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.shopbop.com/kionia-.....929775.htm</a></p> <p>Since the difference seemed subtle, I thought I'd go for the one that was less than half the price. What do you think? </p> <p>My main concern is fit. Should I try the small? The medium fits nicely in the bust and torso but the shoulders are too big and the sleeves (picture 5) are very long.</p> <p>I have tried to style it a bit but admit I am feeling vera vera tired today. </p>
