That would annoy me terribly ... but of course it's about what you will wear and enjoy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---jackets#post-1167925 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 20:40:35 +0000 Deborah 1167925@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good move, primarily because my impression is you don't like them. #2 is workable but I feel I would like to see you I. That style but in a solid colour? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---jackets#post-1167923 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 20:39:13 +0000 April 1167923@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That sounds smart, Deb. &nbsp;"All tens" is not a bad wardrobe motto. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---jackets#post-1167920 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 20:32:53 +0000 deb 1167920@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all for the help. I am going to send them both back. They are not 10's and this year I want all 10's added to the wardrobe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---jackets#post-1167916 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 20:29:23 +0000 Debra 1167916@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #2, a great shape that looks comfy and a nice neutral that will work with other colours. It looks like a good fit.<br /> I like #1 too, but something about the fit is not right. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---jackets#post-1167906 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 20:18:42 +0000 Joyce B 1167906@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the only keeper is the dog, so cute! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---jackets#post-1167904 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 20:15:43 +0000 deb 1167904@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Laura, I missed this one, Thanks. I will order it and see how it fits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---jackets#post-1167878 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 19:26:00 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1167878@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deb, I posted about a knit jacket from Nic &amp; Zoe that's at Nordstrom right now on yesterday or Thursday - might be a good option for your knit jacket search if you're still looking. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---jackets#post-1167798 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 17:01:49 +0000 Jewell 1167798@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry to say it, but I'm leaning toward return for both. #1 looks too big, and though I really like the fabric and color of #2, I think the fit is off. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---jackets#post-1167789 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 16:50:24 +0000 Angie 1167789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>To be fair, I'd like to see #1 pulled straight in the front and back. And a smaller size may have been better too.&nbsp;</p> <p>Love #2 open.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---jackets#post-1167725 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 15:16:08 +0000 Mo 1167725@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #1 better by a mile. &nbsp;It does look more like 'kick around the house on a Saturday fall afternoon' than a coat coat, if you know what I mean. &nbsp;If you have need for that, I'd keep it. &nbsp;If you really don't and are just looking for a way to make it work, I'd return.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---jackets#post-1167480 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 03:59:38 +0000 deb 1167480@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Carter, I actually thought it was a Tussah silk. I think I will try styling it with a pencil skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---jackets#post-1167434 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 03:31:59 +0000 Gigi 1167434@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not superexcited about either coat, but I am also a pretty classic dresser. So I have a harder time with oversized fits, man coats, and the like---they always look "off" to me.</p> <p>I do prefer coat 2 to coat 1, but it seems to cut you in half. Are proportions important to you when dealing with coats? I think the coat would have to be a little bit longer so that the coat covers about 2/3 of your height. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---jackets#post-1167421 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 03:21:28 +0000 carter 1167421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Scratchy would be a deal killer for me, but I may be a tad overboard on that issue. Are you good with it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---jackets#post-1167413 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 03:17:04 +0000 Kiwibird 1167413@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Echoing Sona - return both. &nbsp;I prefer #2 on you but as ATLynn said, it doesn't make you sparkle... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---jackets#post-1167399 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 03:06:34 +0000 deb 1167399@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Carter, it is more scratchy.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---jackets#post-1167355 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 02:30:47 +0000 ATLynn 1167355@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Neither of these makes you sparkle in the photos.&nbsp; I do like 2 better than one, and would liek it for upscale loungewear, but I don't know if it's really taking your look up a notch.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---jackets#post-1167341 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 02:20:06 +0000 carter 1167341@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 looks a bit fussy to me. #2 looks super comfy. Is it soft or scratchy? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---jackets#post-1167335 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 02:14:26 +0000 DonnaF 1167335@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #2 better than #1, but esp. since you seem ambivalent about both, I think you can do better particularly if you want 10s. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---jackets#post-1167300 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 01:43:20 +0000 Sona 1167300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote return both.</p> <p>:(</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---jackets#post-1167294 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 01:37:28 +0000 Anonymous 1167294@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Same as Laura. 1. Looks so comfortable but like it isn't fitting quite right. I like it worn open best.<br /> 2. I vote keep. It looks like a great example of a cocoon jacket and looks great on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---jackets#post-1167216 Sat, 15 Feb 2014 00:19:01 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 1167216@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1 I like the idea of, but the fit doesn't look right. Closed, it pulls and open it looks too baggy; it's like it's too long or something as well. </p> <p>2 I actually like a lot - it references the cocoon trend and the fabric is nice. I can see this being really handy for traveling. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---jackets#post-1167194 Fri, 14 Feb 2014 23:43:06 +0000 deb 1167194@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have two jacket for all of you to see. I am not sure I want to keep either one.</p> <p>&nbsp;<br /># 1,2,3 - An Angie recommended jacket. In my NoRepeat November series, I stated that my work at home wear needed to be taken up a notch and the recommendations were knit jackets in case I need to lay down. I ordered it in the large and the reviews say it runs big but I do not see that. &nbsp;The reviews also state that it pulls when snapped, as you can see, it does. It is a terry type material with unfinished edges, and is definitely soft and comfy. </p> <p>#4,5,6 is a cocoon jacket from H &amp; M. It is a poly blend that looks like a rough silk. I asked for advise on it from a gal in line and she thought I needed a smaller size. The size down was tight around my hips, so that was not an option. She told me I looked little in it, so naturally it came home with me. Should I keep it? It would be very good for wearing on the plane and such as I would not be afraid of losing it because of the cost.</p>
