You’re giving me pangs. I was ‘this’ close to ditching the Sam Edelman shearling for this one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas---black-bottoms-aquatalias-and-wildcard-moto-jacket#post-1942835 Mon, 30 Jul 2018 18:21:03 +0000 Angie 1942835@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YES. I know some of them, <b>Denise</b>.&nbsp;</p> <p>First pair of Blondos run VERY short. The second style might run a little narrow - but worth a try. The Munros are BETTER and come in widths.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas---black-bottoms-aquatalias-and-wildcard-moto-jacket#post-1942342 Sat, 28 Jul 2018 15:31:58 +0000 karen13 1942342@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I probably should have tried a size down in the W&amp;Ws. It is good you are getting the next size for comparison. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas---black-bottoms-aquatalias-and-wildcard-moto-jacket#post-1942326 Sat, 28 Jul 2018 14:38:31 +0000 MTBGirl 1942326@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi CocoLIon. I tried the first one, the Lanka, and I think the sole would be ok for you. (It is natural rubber) For me they ran small so I returned.<br />I think the jacket is spectacular on you! I also think you should check out the whiskey color in person.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas---black-bottoms-aquatalias-and-wildcard-moto-jacket#post-1942283 Sat, 28 Jul 2018 07:59:40 +0000 CocoLion 1942283@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Taking another look at the comments and forgot to thank Suz for the suggestion of Blondos. &nbsp;I've never tried that brand. &nbsp;The description does not say "slip resistant" but it follows they could be. </p> <p>Has anyone tried on these Blondos? The third pair aren't part of NAS but get high reviews and look like they have a true slip resistant sole.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas---black-bottoms-aquatalias-and-wildcard-moto-jacket#post-1942243 Sat, 28 Jul 2018 02:13:21 +0000 Anonymous 1942243@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Please keep the black jacket. It looks like it was made for you. It is too bad the Aquatalia booties did not fit but you must not work in uncomfortable shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas---black-bottoms-aquatalias-and-wildcard-moto-jacket#post-1942127 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 20:10:42 +0000 AviaMariah 1942127@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cocolion - I think you should try the W&amp;W.&nbsp; I liked the ones I had I just remembering thinking that I could have ordered a size down. But this was also a few years ago when I was in the throws of true skinny jean love so who knows what I'd think now.&nbsp; &nbsp;Enough people love them and I think it would be an inexpensive experiment. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas---black-bottoms-aquatalias-and-wildcard-moto-jacket#post-1942124 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 19:44:57 +0000 GeeCee 1942124@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I bet you'll love the Wit &amp; Wisdoms in the smaller size you have on order. I bought them last year and initially went with my regular size based on initial fit, but they stretched a ton throughout the day. All the reviews that say to size down were spot on! I love them so much that I ordered another pair (sized down) this year! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas---black-bottoms-aquatalias-and-wildcard-moto-jacket#post-1942111 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 18:33:57 +0000 CocoLion 1942111@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks YLF friends. I think we need an ENABLER button because y’all are making it so easy for me to keep this. Have I said that the jacket is at a great price point? And that the quality is quite good given the price?</p> <p>Aviah Mariah this jacket is in size S. And I think it’s the right size. Although the sleeves would fit better in XS, it might be too tight around the hip and thigh. So I would go ahead and return the XS. </p> <p>As far as the Wit &amp; Wisdom jeans go, would you recommend I pass on this brand? Due to stretching. I don’t mind some loosening but that sliding thing where you’re constantly yanking them up drives me batty. </p> <p>Karen13 what a great idea! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas---black-bottoms-aquatalias-and-wildcard-moto-jacket#post-1942100 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 18:10:29 +0000 Beth 1942100@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Don't you dare return that jacket. It is all kinds of fabulous on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas---black-bottoms-aquatalias-and-wildcard-moto-jacket#post-1942091 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 17:37:36 +0000 Ginkgo 1942091@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fabulous in this jacket!&nbsp; And you are wearing the jacket, not the other way around.&nbsp; A definite keep and wear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas---black-bottoms-aquatalias-and-wildcard-moto-jacket#post-1942085 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 17:27:47 +0000 JAileen 1942085@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The jacket looks really good. Yes it’s black, but do you have a black jacket like this one? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas---black-bottoms-aquatalias-and-wildcard-moto-jacket#post-1942082 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 17:12:13 +0000 karen13 1942082@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the black jacket. Whiskey could be a better one for you if you ahve sworn off black, but try to check it out in person per AviaMariah's caution.</p> <p>As to the Wit &amp; Wisdoms being a tad short for fashion in petite - I had the same problem last year with a pair, so I did a DIY released hem and now love them. That ~1 inch was exactly what I needed and I now have a trendy pair of dark wash release hem jeans that is actually the right length. So if you end up wanting to wear them with a heel, give it a try.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas---black-bottoms-aquatalias-and-wildcard-moto-jacket#post-1942071 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 16:32:33 +0000 Angie 1942071@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER JACKET.&nbsp;</p> <p>MUST KEEP OR I WILL BE ANGRY. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas---black-bottoms-aquatalias-and-wildcard-moto-jacket#post-1942035 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 14:34:14 +0000 AviaMariah 1942035@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the black jacket on you!&nbsp; What size do you need?&nbsp; I am getting ready to return an XS in the whiskey.&nbsp; It is a little tight on me and I think the S would fit me better.&nbsp; I know I'm an outlier here but I really didn't like the look of the whiskey. When I opened the box I almost didn't even try it on I disliked it so much. To me it looks a little cheap and fake.&nbsp; ***runs and ducks!***&nbsp; I do have the black coming to me in a S.&nbsp; Anyway - all that to say that if you do need an XS I'll hold off on returning mine. </p> <p>And - I've only had one pair of W&amp;W jeans and I found that they stretched quite a bit after wear.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas---black-bottoms-aquatalias-and-wildcard-moto-jacket#post-1942006 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 13:52:11 +0000 Windchime 1942006@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The style of the jacket is wonderful for you! The black looks fantastic; as someone else suggested, you could try to get it in the other color. If you do, that’s a bonus, and if you don’t, you have a fabulous new black jacket. Win-win!</p> <p>Good calls on the jeans. I really like the Wit and Wisdom pair which you’re keeping!</p> <p>Also a smart call to not keep the booties, although it’s very disappointing. The fit has to be completely perfect for working on your feet. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas---black-bottoms-aquatalias-and-wildcard-moto-jacket#post-1942003 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 13:11:05 +0000 minnaheadsure 1942003@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>love the jacket and please keep it.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas---black-bottoms-aquatalias-and-wildcard-moto-jacket#post-1942001 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 13:00:59 +0000 julesegr 1942001@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's the kind of jacket that instantly ups your fashion game, so I'd keep it and have fun with it!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas---black-bottoms-aquatalias-and-wildcard-moto-jacket#post-1941996 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 12:49:25 +0000 Anonymous 1941996@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this jacket on you but would recommend stalking the whiskey colour as I think it might work better with your light hair.<br /> That said, the black does look great! There is a lot going on with this jacket and I think it makes it more fun, funky and statement-y than a regular black jacket which end up blending in sometimes.</p> <p>Yes, I agree that the Aquatalia booties are slightly narrow in the forefoot (but not worthy of sizing up). I thought the leather might stretch out (the leather seems supple enough to stretch.) But then again, they are fabric lined, which might mean they do not stretch! So who knows.</p> <p>The heel felt secure to me but I have only a slightly narrow heel. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas---black-bottoms-aquatalias-and-wildcard-moto-jacket#post-1941994 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 12:39:12 +0000 Janet 1941994@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE that jacket on you!

I think you should keep stalking for the other colour just in case it comes in stock so you can compare, but this is cool and edgy and unique!&nbsp;</p> <p>Sad about the booties. Ah, the bootie holy grail. Your review proves to me that they would not work on me, either.&nbsp;</p> <p>Did you look at any of the Blondos? Also weather resistant (spill resistant) and slip resistant.&nbsp;</p> <p>Glad at least you have found some work-ready jeans even if most did not come from the sale.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-nas---black-bottoms-aquatalias-and-wildcard-moto-jacket#post-1941977 Fri, 27 Jul 2018 12:00:08 +0000 Aquamarine 1941977@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That jacket is fantastic on you.
