My hubby suggested getting the sleeves hemmed but it wouldn't be worth it since the jacket wasn't expensive.</p> <p>rachylou and deb - thank you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-zara-purchases#post-1643730 Tue, 12 Apr 2016 18:42:16 +0000 deb 1643730@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks good on you and the shoes are so cute. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-zara-purchases#post-1643719 Tue, 12 Apr 2016 18:08:38 +0000 rachylou 1643719@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the way you wear a moto </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-zara-purchases#post-1643717 Tue, 12 Apr 2016 18:06:52 +0000 Angie 1643717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Motos are a classic and therefore have a high-longevity factor. And pleather is quite robust, so you're in good shape.&nbsp;</p> <p>Great jacket - although a little long in the sleeves, don't you think? You can tuck under the hems of the sleeves to shorten them.&nbsp;</p> <p>Super cute sling backs too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-zara-purchases#post-1643714 Tue, 12 Apr 2016 18:03:09 +0000 citygirldc 1643714@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Manerra - thanks for your input. I will definitely be in search of real leather jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-zara-purchases#post-1643692 Tue, 12 Apr 2016 17:09:02 +0000 Maneera 1643692@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the jacket and the shoes! Both are fab. </p> <p>I don't think the moto will go out of fashion anytime soon (I've owned some form or the other of a leather jacket forever). Honestly, I love Zara faux leather jackets (mine is veryyyy similar to yours). In fact, I like all zara winter wear. My oldest jacket is about 4 years old and still looks great. I wear it quite a bit in winters and its traveled a lot too. That being said - I do have a pure leather jacket and it definitely looks &amp; feels better. It's more classic than my black zara moto (it's brown) but I'm pretty sure I'll still wear it 10 years later. </p> <p>If you love a moto, do look for a real leather jacket while you enjoy this one....though there's no need to rush! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-zara-purchases#post-1643608 Tue, 12 Apr 2016 14:11:44 +0000 citygirldc 1643608@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy - I thought of keeping this one while still looking for a real leather jacket. True faux doesn't breathe but then how many times do we really zip up the jacket anyway.</p> <p>Chris987 - My old faux was pretty old and so maybe that's the reason why the shoulders got worn. It started flaking when I took it to Amsterdam and I could not wear once.</p> <p>Also, I still want a little edge to my leather jacket. I wish this particular jacket had the silver buttons on the lapels giving it more of a moto look. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-zara-purchases#post-1643590 Tue, 12 Apr 2016 13:53:33 +0000 Chris987 1643590@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think a black leather moto jacket is a super classic AND classy&nbsp;style. They have been on-trend the last few years,&nbsp;but they have really been around for a long time and I suspect they will be on trend&nbsp;for a long time&nbsp; because they are so versatile.&nbsp; </p> <p>This one looks great on you and it's really great with&nbsp;the "dressy" skirt and shoes. Plus I'm sure it would work with jeans/boots etc. </p> <p>Interesting comment about the faux ones wearing out faster, good to know. I have never found a good fit but remain hopeful would love to find one! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-zara-purchases#post-1643589 Tue, 12 Apr 2016 13:51:49 +0000 Anonymous 1643589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think the moto jacket ever goes away, especially as it can make a look more casual in a lux way. You might keep the faux leather jacket and keep looking for your perfect leather version. Faux leather can be useful on rainy days when you might not want to expose leather to the elements. On the down side, faux does not usually breathe and may not be desirable for your humidity. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-zara-purchases#post-1643581 Tue, 12 Apr 2016 13:42:34 +0000 citygirldc 1643581@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi all. I received my faux leather jacket from Zara and fits perfectly. The faux leather is quite "leather" like and am really loving how soft it is. On the other hand, I'm afraid it will wear out faster since it is soft especially since I use over the shoulder bags that tend to wear out the shoulders. That's what happened to my last faux jacket. Second, a part of me wants real leather so that it can last longer but I'm afraid the moto jacket trend won't be around the next few years. What do you all think?</p> <p>The slingbacks fit perfectly and are so adorable. I'll be wearing these to death. </p>
