A small size of the same jacket showed up on Bluefly (just one!) so I ordered it and the SA will adjust the price to what I originally paid for the bigger size ($206). Now I can try all the different options. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-leather-jackets#post-725268 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 13:29:44 +0000 MNsara 725268@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay - Your Tahari comes down almost to your crotch, whereas cinnamonfern's comes down to her high hip!</p> <p><a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-2" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-2</a></p> <p>That tells me why the length of this Tahari doesn't workas well on you as her. I do prefer it to the Halogen, but looking into shorter length jackets sounds wise! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-leather-jackets#post-725263 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 13:26:24 +0000 Diana 725263@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the Tahari but agree that it looks too big. I personally prefer my leather jackets to fit very close to the body. I also think that it might be too long. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-leather-jackets#post-725262 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 13:24:51 +0000 Anonymous 725262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the color of the second one on you. Really lovely with your hair, and the style seems really good. Thanks for taking pictures of the collar all different ways! I agree that it might be wise to leave the tags on while you search for a smaller size (somewhere) to try. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-leather-jackets#post-725260 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 13:22:14 +0000 Makrame 725260@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am 5'5". This is a medium, and the small is not available anywhere. Not sure how a smaller size would fit over a sweater, anyway. Although those nice stretchy side panels would probably accomodate another layer underneath.</p> <p>It's probably not perfect so I have some more options on their way - cool Moobaa jackets from Yoox.<br /> <a href="http://www.yoox.com/us/59127871QF/item?dept=#cod10=59127871QF&#038;sizeId=" rel="nofollow">http://www.yoox.com/us/5912787.....38;sizeId=</a><br /> <a href="http://www.yoox.com/us/59127871WH/item?dept=#cod10=59127871QF&#038;sizeId=" rel="nofollow">http://www.yoox.com/us/5912787.....38;sizeId=</a><br /> <a href="http://www.yoox.com/us/59127893EP/item?dept=#cod10=59127893EP&#038;sizeId=" rel="nofollow">http://www.yoox.com/us/5912789.....38;sizeId=</a></p> <p>These are quite edgy and cropped so I will see how they work out.</p> <p>Jayne, I am not sure about bomber or motorcycle style jackets, although I might end up trying some since it looks like I need something quite cropped. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-leather-jackets#post-725244 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 12:59:47 +0000 cinnamon fern 725244@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Tahari jacket does look too big to me - I think it's meant to be quite fitted through the body. Is there a smaller size somewhere else you could try? I am not convinced that either of these are perfect.</p> <p>How tall are you? It looks longer on you than on me, but I thought you were tall. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-leather-jackets#post-725180 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 11:51:35 +0000 Preppy Pear 725180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the Tahari! Like to see it with some other looks as well - I'm finding the center seam on your skirt a little distracting in these pictures - I think it's messing with how my mind perceives the angles of the jacket. How's the fit? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-leather-jackets#post-725106 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 07:46:33 +0000 lyn67 725106@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>lOVE THE SECOND SO MUCH BETTER THAN THE FIRST!(sorry for the caps lock:-)) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-leather-jackets#post-725051 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 04:53:45 +0000 jayne 725051@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I must agree. They don't seem fab enough for you. Are you interested in the bomber style? Gut feeling says it might work for you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-leather-jackets#post-725023 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 04:31:30 +0000 MNsara 725023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good call to return the Halogen - it pales next to the Tahari! I like the Tahari and also wonder about one size smaller but it's a moot point. (Although if it was Nordstroms, continue to check it each day -- they do pop back in briefly after a return)</p> <p>Have you tried it with the underlayers you want? Try that, and styling it, and post more pics? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-leather-jackets#post-724972 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 03:27:55 +0000 Suz 724972@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That Tahari jacket really is an amazing piece, isn't it? Did you get it in the same colour as CF? </p> <p>I think you are right to return the Halogen; it looks like nice leather in the pics but it doesn't seem like what you were looking for. </p> <p>The Tahari does seem a lot closer. I actually like it on you. Can we see it with pants, too? That might shirt perception a bit. Does it feel too large? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/more-leather-jackets#post-724929 Wed, 19 Sep 2012 02:06:23 +0000 Makrame 724929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I suspect that both of these are going back, although I will keep the Tahari jacket for now (with tags on). The first one is Halogen jacket ( <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/halogen-seamed-leather-jacket/3271555" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/ha.....et/3271555</a> ) and the other is the same Tahari jacket from Bluefly that Cinnamon Fern has. </p> <p>I love the feel, color, and style of the Tahari jacket but it does not look as cool and edgy on me as it does on Cinnamon Fern. Perhaps I should have sized down (but it is gone now). I think I may need to play around with styling it some more before making the final decision.</p> <p>ETA: here is a photo of Tahari jacket with jeans (#3). </p>
