I hope you do try it. The color would be delicious on you. Give it a whirl and report back! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase/page/2#post-252590 Thu, 18 Nov 2010 00:05:58 +0000 catgirl 252590@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Blargh! I think I'm going to give it a try - I can always return directly to our Nordstrom here. I too am smitten, and I need to see for myself. I will probably come groveling back to you saying sorry for not taking your advice! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase/page/2#post-252587 Thu, 18 Nov 2010 00:04:40 +0000 Beth 252587@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>AG, I bought the Small. I tried a Medium and it was really odd: the sizing was bigger everywhere except the shoulders, which were just as tight as the Small. Very weird.</p> <p>I do adore it though, and I wear it everywhere:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase/page/2#post-252584 Wed, 17 Nov 2010 23:55:41 +0000 catgirl 252584@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh, Beth - thank you for the (sad but helpful) input. Darn, I love this coat! Can I ask what size you got? I don't layer under my old peacoat either, but I don't want to be uncomfortable. If you don't want yours, should I buy it from you? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase/page/2#post-252576 Wed, 17 Nov 2010 23:42:59 +0000 Beth 252576@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey, how did I miss this? I'm so sorry AG:/</p> <p>I hate to say it, but if your shoulders are at all wide, this jacket will be a miss. I never have a problem with a narrow shoulder in clothes, but Miss Sixty consistently seems to cut their tops tight in that area. Both the peacoat and a pleather jacket from NAS were similarly tight.</p> <p>Honestly, if I wasn't having such a love affair with this coat, I wouldn't have bought it. There's definitely no layering under it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase/page/2#post-252570 Wed, 17 Nov 2010 23:37:41 +0000 catgirl 252570@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bumping for Beth </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase/page/2#post-252207 Wed, 17 Nov 2010 06:49:50 +0000 catgirl 252207@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beth, AJ was kind enough to point out that you own this coat! Can you tell me if you still love it and how it fits you? I'm fairly petite but I have wide shoulders. There's only S and L left. Thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase/page/2#post-192789 Sun, 01 Aug 2010 01:43:13 +0000 Angie 192789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Got to love America :0) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase/page/2#post-192719 Sat, 31 Jul 2010 22:44:59 +0000 Beth 192719@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, we did. We found a place nearby that could order and deliver a new fridge/freezer in 24 hours so we were back the game in no time:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase/page/2#post-192673 Sat, 31 Jul 2010 20:57:26 +0000 Angie 192673@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*very happy*</p> <p>Have you sorted out your freezer, Beth? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase/page/2#post-192623 Sat, 31 Jul 2010 19:01:52 +0000 Beth 192623@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>MPJ, I decided to keep it. I put it through all its paces and it'll be fine.</p> <p>My mom was in town until a few hours ago and we ran by Nordstrom while we were out. I tried on a Medium, and she agreed it was too big everywhere but the arms, which were nearly the same as the Small. So I'm keeping the Small and I can't wait until fall so we can all wear our loot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase/page/2#post-192600 Sat, 31 Jul 2010 17:48:33 +0000 Mamapicklejuice 192600@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>BethW - What's the verdict?? Is it a keeper? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase/page/2#post-189699 Sun, 25 Jul 2010 14:16:17 +0000 Beth 189699@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL AJ, DH suggested that. I gave him the Death Glare. He wasn't really serious but I was :P</p> <p>Thank you Sparky! If it wasn't for my stylist, I'd be very curly and gray. My current hair is a result of permanent color and thermal straightening.:)</p> <p>And Maya, that's hilarious! I'm pretty sure I don't flap my arms too often~ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase/page/2#post-189648 Sun, 25 Jul 2010 07:01:44 +0000 AJ 189648@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, rotten luck! I hope you won't be starting a new thread about returning your NAS purchases becasue you have to buy a new fridge! : ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase#post-189570 Sun, 25 Jul 2010 03:40:35 +0000 Tanya 189570@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL Maya!</p> <p>Beth, I am sorry about the troubles of the day. I hope tomorrow is much better! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase#post-189558 Sun, 25 Jul 2010 03:23:55 +0000 Maya 189558@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This reminds me of a conversation I had a few years back on the same subject. I just got my red Michael Kors toggle coat and I loved it but was afraid it might be too big. I explained to a friend that "You can really only see it when I do this," while raising my arms the way you would if you were measuring your arm span. His response was simple: "um, well then don't do that."</p> <p>I still have the coat.</p> <p>It looks killer on you and unless you regularly flap your arms around as if to take flight, I don't anticipate any problems :p But surely try it on around the house to make sure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase#post-189536 Sun, 25 Jul 2010 02:31:48 +0000 Angie 189536@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*bust a gut" - great expression. </p> <p>Urrgh, Beth.

Hope you find that it's comfortable enough to keep!</p> <p>Oh, and can I please have your gorgeous hair??</p> <p>Angie, you almost made me bust a gut with that jumping jacks comment. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase#post-189520 Sun, 25 Jul 2010 02:13:47 +0000 Beth 189520@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I got a little sidetracked this afternoon while having a minor Rosie moment (her car died, and now our refrigerator/freezer died with a Nordstrom haul's worth of groceries in it). Will try again tomorrow! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase#post-189453 Sat, 24 Jul 2010 23:18:19 +0000 Angie 189453@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What's the verdict hubby-kissing and driving Beth - who I hope has not collapsed from heat stroke outside road testing her killer coat. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase#post-189409 Sat, 24 Jul 2010 21:29:02 +0000 cciele 189409@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a fab coat -- the back pleats are so cool and so is the military detailing. I hope you can work out the arm issue! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase#post-189365 Sat, 24 Jul 2010 20:01:40 +0000 Anonymous 189365@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks killer on you. I hope you wear it enough around the house before taking the tags off, to make sure the loss of full motion doesn't really bother you after awhile. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase#post-189349 Sat, 24 Jul 2010 19:44:12 +0000 londonkiwi (now back in NZ) 189349@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ohhh - that is lovely!

I hope it works out, since it does look wonderful on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase#post-189330 Sat, 24 Jul 2010 19:18:40 +0000 Bianca 189330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It really looks great on you! Have fun with it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase#post-189327 Sat, 24 Jul 2010 19:04:40 +0000 Beth 189327@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ordinarily, I wouldn't keep a piece that wasn't a good fit or an alteration candidate, but I do love it so. And I got DH to buy it for me as an early birthday gift :D</p> <p>Your responses made me think about what I'd really be doing while wearing the coat. I don't have to keep up with children, DH does the grocery shopping, and I don't do jumping jacks. Actually, I have a horror of the gym. :P</p> <p>I do need to drive my car, lift a fork to my mouth and hug DH with ease:) I think I'll go put the coat on and try some activities to see if it's comfortable. Then I'll have my answer. </p> <p>Imagine me, in my new coat, shorts and flip-flops (only for around the backyard, thankyouverymuch), taking a turn around the neighborhood in my car in 103° heat. I'll make it fast, just in case I have to return the coat. And no WIW pictures! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase#post-189315 Sat, 24 Jul 2010 18:29:15 +0000 Scarlet 189315@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Without reading other opinions, it looks FREAKING AWESOME! especially from the back. Only you can know how comfortable you are. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase#post-189306 Sat, 24 Jul 2010 18:21:50 +0000 Mamapicklejuice 189306@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look SO amazing, it pains me to say the following - I would return it because of the range of motion issues. </p> <p>Personally, I engage in a wide variety of non-jumping jack activities on a daily basis that require far more range of motion than you demonstrate in the arm-raising picture. I would feel like I were wearing a strait-jacket. A FAB strait-jacket, mind you, but still. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/need-input-on-nas-miss-sixty-peacoat-purchase#post-189304 Sat, 24 Jul 2010 18:18:44 +0000 agrace 189304@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like this on you. It really is very chic and the fit is great. You look fantastic! </p>
