I hope I can make it work somehow, as I really like the streamlined look of the zipper instead of buttons (double breasted styles aren't so great on me). The leather jacket was kind of an afterthought, based on the recommendations Angie made. If both work, it will kind of blow the coat budget for fall, and I will still need a grass green wool coat! Oh, well, unless the weather from last winter and this summer keeps up (unusually warm), coat season is dominant here, so it is worth it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-items---coatjacket-questions#post-675005 Sun, 22 Jul 2012 01:21:14 +0000 velvetychocolate 675005@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the leather jacket looks like it has a lot of potential - looking forward to hearing your review once it arrives. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-items---coatjacket-questions#post-675001 Sun, 22 Jul 2012 01:12:38 +0000 Echo 675001@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, no. I should have asked Angie first! My hopes are still high for the leather jacket, as I am very long-waisted despite not being very tall (how's that for winning the genetic lottery? Short with short legs!). I will update when things arrive. Thanks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-items---coatjacket-questions#post-674685 Sat, 21 Jul 2012 17:21:46 +0000 annagybe 674685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Laundry jacket fit me well, but the taupe was so, so, so soul-sucking on me. Which is weird because normally I can wear colors like that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-items---coatjacket-questions#post-674682 Sat, 21 Jul 2012 17:18:11 +0000 Angie 674682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pass on the bebe trench - although you have already ordered it. It flares in a very awkward way from the belt down. Not flattering. I'm sure it's pinned on the model. </p> <p>The Laundry jacket has great potential. The fabric section under the sleeve makes it very comfortable. You need a long waist to carry off the style. Hope it works! Fingers crossed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-items---coatjacket-questions#post-674589 Sat, 21 Jul 2012 15:52:39 +0000 Kari 674589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I haven't tried it myself as it just wasn't something I needed, but it is awfully cute! I hope that the trench works on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-items---coatjacket-questions#post-674536 Sat, 21 Jul 2012 14:30:51 +0000 Nadya 674536@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I adore that bebe trench in the photos. I resisted tracking it down because a trench without a hood just doesn't work in my umbrell- free Pacific Northwet lifestyle. I'm excited to see you model it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-items---coatjacket-questions#post-674516 Sat, 21 Jul 2012 14:04:29 +0000 JR 674516@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*bump* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-items---coatjacket-questions#post-674430 Sat, 21 Jul 2012 05:04:13 +0000 Echo 674430@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are the two items I ordered from NAS.<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/bebe-mixed-media-trench-coat/3296037?origin=keywordsearch&#038;fashionColor=&#038;resultback=0" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/be.....sultback=0</a></p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/laundry-by-shelli-segal-asymmetrical-zip-colorblock-leather-jacket/3300767?origin=keywordsearch&#038;fashionColor=&#038;resultback=0" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/la.....sultback=0</a></p> <p>See a pattern?! I ordered the leather jacket due to Angie's review, as I am long-waisted. I am hesitant about the fabric under the arms, but I will wait to see the quality before dismissing it. How does it fit - does anyone know? And did anyone try the Bebe coat on? Opinions? The coat is back-ordered, but I'll try to review when I receive it. I haven't seen it mentioned anywhere else, even though it was in the NAS catalogue. Maybe everyone else just finds it ugly! Anyway, I really liked the Burberry trenches with the leather sleeves last year, so hopefully these will be quality stand-ins. They surely are much more affordable! </p>
