But if the fit is uncomfortable, let it go and find something better.<br /><br />And no...you don't look like a waiter https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---waiter-syndrome#post-938825 Wed, 22 May 2013 12:40:31 +0000 annaj 938825@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love how it looks, but I'm Team Comfort! Wait for a better one https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---waiter-syndrome#post-938808 Wed, 22 May 2013 11:53:19 +0000 Thistle 938808@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy - perhaps they are cut more for ITs. I have no shoulder (maybe I will get some weight lifting?) and a generous bustline. My arms were never thin, but I never had muscle before either. I am actually more than a bit surprised how quickly my arms got muscle. Must've been prepped from carrying DD so much! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---waiter-syndrome#post-938744 Wed, 22 May 2013 05:55:42 +0000 lyn* 938744@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think the fit issues make this a return; but you don't look like a waiter! Where's your bow tie?! :)<br /><br />I hope you find an even more fabulous jacket! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---waiter-syndrome#post-938730 Wed, 22 May 2013 05:08:54 +0000 carolbee 938730@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Hmmmm, not up to your usual standard, return. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---waiter-syndrome#post-938726 Wed, 22 May 2013 05:04:26 +0000 Deborah 938726@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You need to be comfortable! &nbsp;And you don't look like a waiter. &nbsp;I have a similar but cropped jacket and was planning to wear it to a wedding when my sister commented that I would fit right in and could assist with the drinks service!!<br />Funny girl she is. &nbsp;I have to go sleeveless under mine and I it is defiitely limiting how often it gets worn. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---waiter-syndrome#post-938644 Wed, 22 May 2013 02:52:50 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 938644@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Wow, those are definitely your colors!&nbsp; But this is not your jacket.&nbsp; &nbsp; I can see it in your expression - you don't have your thrilled, radiant face on for this jacket.<br /><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---waiter-syndrome#post-938640 Wed, 22 May 2013 02:50:23 +0000 Echo 938640@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I agree that I don't get a waiter vibe at all, but the arm fit would be a deal-breaker for me. I have the same issue much of the time. You can do better. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---waiter-syndrome#post-938617 Wed, 22 May 2013 02:31:07 +0000 Anonymous 938617@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's disappointing that the fit is not working for you. For the record, I wish I could buy this jacket in every color, it fits so well. But I have broad shoulders, no bust and skinny arms. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---waiter-syndrome#post-938604 Wed, 22 May 2013 02:16:27 +0000 Adelfa 938604@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I have trouble with Halogen fit too and so does DD. Wonder why. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---waiter-syndrome#post-938602 Wed, 22 May 2013 02:13:02 +0000 Lantana 938602@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thistle, I love the blue, black and white with your complexion and your up do is adorable. Keep on looking for that perfect jacket, the sleeves on this one aren't the right cut for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---waiter-syndrome#post-938597 Wed, 22 May 2013 02:04:28 +0000 Sveta 938597@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ All jackets which are too tight in the arms just drive me crazy so I vote pass&nbsp; and look for a better fit. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---waiter-syndrome#post-938516 Wed, 22 May 2013 00:14:49 +0000 pil 938516@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's beautiful but If it isn't comfortable, you won't reach for it. Sounds like everyone has you sorted out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---waiter-syndrome#post-938510 Wed, 22 May 2013 00:02:31 +0000 Thistle 938510@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, this is the Halogen jacket in the YLF store. Halogen and I just don't get along, and I so thought we would! They just don't fit my body shape. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---waiter-syndrome#post-938491 Tue, 21 May 2013 23:35:03 +0000 rachylou 938491@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Mm. I say pass. The fit is weird.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---waiter-syndrome#post-938487 Tue, 21 May 2013 23:33:44 +0000 kellygirl 938487@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Agreeing with Beth Ann. I can't remember the last time I saw a waiter in a jacket. I'm thinking polo shirt and goofy hat is de riguer at In-n-out? Anyways, I don't think this looks waiter like at all. I prefer it unbuttoned but if the biceps are tight, I'd return. Is this the one in the YLF store?&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---waiter-syndrome#post-938483 Tue, 21 May 2013 23:28:12 +0000 Beth Ann 938483@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You must go to better restaurants than I!&nbsp; Don't all waiters work the drive-thru?<br /><br />Love this look, but I bought a jacket last year that was a little snug in the bicep and it drives me crazy!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---waiter-syndrome#post-938475 Tue, 21 May 2013 23:12:14 +0000 unfrumped 938475@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I don't see a waiter vibe, just doesn't look like quite as good a fit as some of your other pieces. I think a white jacket is still a great option for you, but this one may not be it. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---waiter-syndrome#post-938453 Tue, 21 May 2013 22:54:23 +0000 Caro in Oz 938453@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You don't look like a waiter - honestly.&nbsp;<br />The arm fit isn't great imo - it would bother me :)&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---waiter-syndrome#post-938451 Tue, 21 May 2013 22:52:05 +0000 Anonymous 938451@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it, but uncomfy is a no go. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---waiter-syndrome#post-938448 Tue, 21 May 2013 22:42:55 +0000 donnat 938448@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Sorry Thistle, &nbsp;my mind is still thinking about those gorgeous dresses Shannon posted about. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---waiter-syndrome#post-938446 Tue, 21 May 2013 22:39:21 +0000 donnat 938446@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Shannon, you can do better. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---waiter-syndrome#post-938443 Tue, 21 May 2013 22:37:50 +0000 Lyn D. 938443@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Hi Thistle.<br />I like the jacket, and could see it working well undone with darker pants/skirt.<br />Would also lean towards return though, if you won't be able to wear anything underneath due to the arm fit. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---waiter-syndrome#post-938438 Tue, 21 May 2013 22:31:37 +0000 Thistle 938438@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ My gorgeous new white jacket arrived. <br /><br />It is really very pretty, but I worry that I look a bit like a waiter in it. Does not look closed, IMHO, better open.&nbsp; Still, not sure this is my jacket. It is also a bit tight through the biceps. I actually have a bicep now thanks to all the weight lifting!<br /><br />I am leaning towards return, but would appreciate your opinion!
