However, as you do have a beautiful leather moto, it is possible that a bomber may give you more outfit variety. I am still on team blue moto, I am sure you look incredible wearing this with jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/moto-or-bomber#post-1728238 Fri, 16 Sep 2016 22:20:15 +0000 Staysfit 1728238@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My quandary arose when looking at current trends. I was thinking that perhaps a moto would be a less current look, or even one that is getting stale? I know they are supposed to be classic, but like many classic items, they go through phases. Moto's waning bombers rising. I think bombers are also considered classic. I kind of like the look of the new longer length bombers. I have owned many bomber style jackets in the past. My HS Varsity jacket is a great example. I certainly had a Members Only jacket in the past, as well as an Adidas bomber style track jacket. They're nostalgic in a way that a moto isn't (in my life anyway). </p> <p>However, I love the look of a moto jacket. I have a coral leather moto that I wear frequently. I have had two moto style sweaters. I love the blue suede moto. I can see myself wearing it with dresses and jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/moto-or-bomber#post-1728125 Fri, 16 Sep 2016 18:49:51 +0000 rachylou 1728125@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I want to echo JAileen...and wonder a little if you feel a moto is too visually heavy...because I can't think of anything you wear that's as visually heavy like a moto... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/moto-or-bomber#post-1728087 Fri, 16 Sep 2016 17:07:02 +0000 Elizabeth P 1728087@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, you have to keep this.&nbsp; But I'm not quite sure why you can't look for a bomber as well?&nbsp; Esp if you look for a cheapish price point, which is logical for something trendier.&nbsp; I think they serve very different purposes.&nbsp; </p> <p>signed,<br />Elizabeth the Enabler.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/moto-or-bomber#post-1728082 Fri, 16 Sep 2016 16:57:40 +0000 MsMary 1728082@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Are you kidding me?

Bombers are out for me because they just don't work with my petite frame + large bust + unremarkable neck length. Have you tried on any bombers? That could bring you an answer--or just tempt you with more to buy... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/moto-or-bomber#post-1728039 Fri, 16 Sep 2016 15:53:53 +0000 Kaelyn 1728039@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am heavily biased in favor of moto jackets. &nbsp;But that said, I still think you should keep it because it was hard to find and it sounds like you really love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/moto-or-bomber#post-1728038 Fri, 16 Sep 2016 15:52:15 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1728038@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keep the moto. It's so beautiful. You can find a trendy bomber anywhere at a non-budget busting price. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/moto-or-bomber#post-1727995 Fri, 16 Sep 2016 14:23:18 +0000 El Cee 1727995@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How about playing in your closet this weekend and creating some outfits with the moto jacket? That sort of endeavor always helps me to make a decision regarding a keep or return question. By the way -- have you tried the jacket with your new pleated maxi skirt?</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/moto-or-bomber#post-1727990 Fri, 16 Sep 2016 14:17:31 +0000 unfrumped 1727990@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>More moto mania!<br /> Especially for an upscale leather item. </p> <p>If you get bomber- itis there are lots of options in different fabrics/ pricepoints.<br /> If you had 2 options on the chopping block of course you could compare relative fits. </p> <p>Or say for example if bombers actually are a targeted fit style for body type( which I think is less true here), then one could discuss, yes moto's are timeless, but be sure to get what fits you well, don't just follow a list ( classic black moto! Classic tan trench!).<br /> Is there some reason you started to have second thoughts? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/moto-or-bomber#post-1727987 Fri, 16 Sep 2016 14:14:56 +0000 JAileen 1727987@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's a great jacket, but you don't seem to be in love with it. Why is that? Look for a bomber and see which you like better. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/moto-or-bomber#post-1727985 Fri, 16 Sep 2016 14:13:23 +0000 Janet 1727985@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with everything Tanya said. I like my bombers but find motos easier to style. This one looks beautiful. Since bombers are a bit more of a trend piece for right now, maybe one of the more budget-friendly ones would suffice? I love the one I got from Zara and I expect it will outlast the trend, making it a bargain for what I paid for it. My motos were mostly more expensive pieces but I'll wear them forever. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/moto-or-bomber#post-1727980 Fri, 16 Sep 2016 14:04:21 +0000 Banoffi 1727980@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a beautiful jacket. &nbsp;It's a HEWI. &nbsp;I say keep it and enjoy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/moto-or-bomber#post-1727971 Fri, 16 Sep 2016 13:44:01 +0000 Angie 1727971@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote moto.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/moto-or-bomber#post-1727962 Fri, 16 Sep 2016 13:31:14 +0000 Colette 1727962@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No. This jacket is sunning and I bet it looks gorgeous on you. And especially since it was a HEWI, the fit is perfect; keep, wear, and enjoy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/moto-or-bomber#post-1727910 Fri, 16 Sep 2016 12:15:48 +0000 Murph11 1727910@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your moto is so divine! Cut off the tags and enjoy. You will not regret it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/moto-or-bomber#post-1727905 Fri, 16 Sep 2016 12:07:42 +0000 RobinF 1727905@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is a beautiful jacket. I agree with the others, a moto seems fairly timeless where a bomber is more trendy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/moto-or-bomber#post-1727898 Fri, 16 Sep 2016 11:52:10 +0000 Inge 1727898@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I echo everything Tanya said, plus this particular jacket is just sooooo stunning!-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/moto-or-bomber#post-1727897 Fri, 16 Sep 2016 11:52:08 +0000 El Cee 1727897@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agreeing with Tanya that motos are classic and almost timeless. This jacket sounds perfect in terms of fit, color and fitting in with your polished style. I say keep!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/moto-or-bomber#post-1727891 Fri, 16 Sep 2016 11:46:24 +0000 Tanya 1727891@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Since it is a HEWI and it was difficult to find, I say stick with the suede moto.&nbsp; Motos are pretty much timeless while bombers are more of the " of the moment" pieces.&nbsp; Plus, bombers are also more casual, while your style strikes me as more polished. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/moto-or-bomber#post-1727890 Fri, 16 Sep 2016 11:44:32 +0000 Staysfit 1727890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I recently purchased a beautiful blue suede moto jacket. The fit is perfect. The sleeves are long enough for me and the torso isn't too wide. The color is divine. I thought this was a HEWI. My question is should I have put my budget money towards a Bomber instead? It still has the tags attached and can be returned. </p>
