Which size are you wearing in the pic? 36 or 38? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-astridrae-uwp-jacket-mikka-jacket#post-737521 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 02:22:03 +0000 catgirl 737521@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That was my fear. Too much neck flappage, and I already have a stubby neck. But I am waiting to see it on Rae. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-astridrae-uwp-jacket-mikka-jacket#post-737516 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 02:19:57 +0000 bj1111 737516@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>dj, you are spot on. i haven't worn the zara jacket which is the same weight as the mikka because it wasn't warm enough for outerwear and too warm for indoor wear. i'm returning mikka...i had sale goggles and i do love origami coats.</p> <p>rae...i'm not sure you will like it any better than i did. there was a lot of material under the neck and nape. uncomfy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-astridrae-uwp-jacket-mikka-jacket#post-737349 Wed, 03 Oct 2012 00:34:28 +0000 rae 737349@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hm, I like the Mikka better closed, but the Zara better open. Maybe that is why the model has her hands in her pockets in this pic... rats, I'm not nearly as optimistic about it on me now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-astridrae-uwp-jacket-mikka-jacket#post-737290 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 23:56:21 +0000 DeclawedJaguar 737290@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>BJ, is the coat to be used as actual outerwear? Not knowing where you live, it seems a little impractical as a cold weather jacket and too elaborate as an indoor topper. With all the other fabulous jackets in your closet, I'm not sure what this one can add. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-astridrae-uwp-jacket-mikka-jacket#post-737283 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 23:53:16 +0000 Caro in Oz 737283@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it closed but not open. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-astridrae-uwp-jacket-mikka-jacket#post-737213 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 23:02:07 +0000 rae 737213@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>NO Fair you got yours so fast! I have to wait until tomorrow. I can' see the photos well on my phone but I know what I'm looking at when I get home! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-astridrae-uwp-jacket-mikka-jacket#post-737173 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 22:39:28 +0000 catgirl 737173@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it closed, don't like it open. Hmmm, interesting how they didn't show it open in the Nordstrom photos. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-astridrae-uwp-jacket-mikka-jacket#post-737097 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 21:15:34 +0000 Angie 737097@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE the old Zara coat on you!! </p> <p>I am not as fond of the UWP coat. I find it a little overwhelming on your petite self - it's "over designed" to my eye. That said, I prefer the look of it closed, if that makes a difference. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-astridrae-uwp-jacket-mikka-jacket#post-737091 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 21:07:00 +0000 Suz 737091@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, dear...you are making me SO envious here. I love this coat and really wish I could justify the expense.....</p> <p>I can only say keep, because that is what I would do!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-astridrae-uwp-jacket-mikka-jacket#post-737090 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 21:06:22 +0000 Anonymous 737090@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ummm...I'm not sure on the Rae coat. I'd go postal with all of that flappage, if worn open. I like it closed. I don't mind that you have a black coat already. You live in a cold climate, just like me, I justify getting multiple coats because I will use them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-astridrae-uwp-jacket-mikka-jacket#post-737082 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 21:02:05 +0000 biscuitsmom 737082@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it done up! Both of them...which way would you wear it? If you'd wear it done up, Id keep it, for sure...if not, I'd keep looking </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-astridrae-uwp-jacket-mikka-jacket#post-737063 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 20:36:02 +0000 bj1111 737063@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>when rae linked to this jacket (#1), i fell hard. got it in 2 sizes. the 38 fits looser than a 36 with room for a thin sweater but not a jacket. detail close-up here.</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/eleven-paris-mikka-structured-wool-jacket/3372319?origin=keywordsearch&#038;contextualcategoryid=0&#038;fashionColor=&#038;resultback=0" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/el.....sultback=0</a></p> <p>then that new wool coat smell reminded me of a zara jacket sourced in 2008 that i've worn a handful of times (#2--with detail close-up).</p> <p>k/r? i really need to stop shopping. </p>
