Of course, the cardigan is supposed to be long... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olsen-europe-quilted-jacket#post-1324890 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 22:34:20 +0000 catgirl 1324890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was going to say leave it - it looks a little too long and not quite the right fit.&nbsp; In theory, it's great for you so let's look for a substitute! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olsen-europe-quilted-jacket#post-1324889 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 22:34:16 +0000 Angie 1324889@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm glad you left it, Shannon. I found it a little long for your petite height. Next. xo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olsen-europe-quilted-jacket#post-1324882 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 22:26:02 +0000 Anonymous 1324882@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm late, but glad that you left it, at least until you mulled it over more.&nbsp; I liked it but was not wowed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olsen-europe-quilted-jacket#post-1324871 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 22:14:11 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1324871@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>At home now and glad I left the jacket. The "wow" doesn't match the price, you know? And the fabric is thin enough at the back that what I wear underneath kind of shows through as per Janet's observation. </p> <p>So thank you for your wisdom and keen eyes ladies :). I did spend a portion of my jar pennies on the long cardigan by Olsen that I had linked to back on my Olsen lusting thread. It's a bit EFish with a touch of avante garde thrown in. Loved it instantly and didn't need any feedback Will show you later but gotta get dinner started. The men are getting restless - lol! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olsen-europe-quilted-jacket#post-1324833 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 20:56:42 +0000 Janet 1324833@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm, I love a black and white jacket, and I especially love black and white on you, but I'm not sure this is my favorite. I do see the same thing Rachy sees. It seems like the seams in the back are too visible, almost like the fabric is too thin. Is it lined?&nbsp;I think this is tricky when it comes to jackets that aren't heavy -- if it's thin enough to not overheat you, does it lie smoothly over the layers beneath? If you'll never zip it up, I could see it working, but I'm not sure this is worth all your fashion pennies.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olsen-europe-quilted-jacket#post-1324830 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 20:49:13 +0000 Anonymous 1324830@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Welllll, that all said, buy it! &nbsp;It's pretty darn nice. &nbsp;I just love that look on you. &nbsp;I wear those open too, and with little in the way of thickness underneath. &nbsp; You know though, if it's out now, it will be marked down in another 6 weeks.......</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olsen-europe-quilted-jacket#post-1324829 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 20:48:28 +0000 Alana in Canada 1324829@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote buy if (based on what you've said, here and elsewhere):</p> <p>1) It fills a true wardrobe hole for you (i.e., providing much needed lightness)<br />2) You can truly wear it with your other pieces<br />3) It will be happy to lose weight with you<br />4) This will make you SO HAPPY that you will be content to stop shopping and looking for more until your pennies are all saved up for something else.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olsen-europe-quilted-jacket#post-1324826 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 20:44:00 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1324826@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My two cents worth. I will never wear it done up. Just zipped to show that I could. It honestly isn't snug - I didn't even have to suck it in to zip - lol!</p> <p>It fits my shoulders which is the hardest part to fit for me usually.</p> <p>Still mulling it over...</p> <p>Ps. Won't wear anything heavy underneath - my hot flushes couldn't take it. </p> <p>Gonna leave it for now and pick DH up at work. Thanks all </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olsen-europe-quilted-jacket#post-1324823 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 20:36:28 +0000 Anonymous 1324823@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shannon - love this idea and the combo of a touch of black on white for you. But I have to say I agree with rachylou - fit looks a bit off. &nbsp;Mind you, would you really wear it done up? &nbsp;I think you might want a tad more room if wearing anything with any degree of texture or heaviness underneath.&nbsp;Hmm, I'm no help here. I loved that t too but could not figure out why it was so ridiculously long either. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olsen-europe-quilted-jacket#post-1324822 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 20:34:25 +0000 Kim 1324822@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmmm, way too long on you might be good for long-torso-ed (is that a word??) me...Must stop by the Bay tonight...LOL </p> <p>I completely agree that it would be a great way to add white into your winter wardrobe, and in our climate we need as much help as we can get to get through those looooooong winter months! (I can't believe I'm even let myself think about the dreaded W months...Only to help another Fabber...LOL)</p> <p>I vote yes, because another perfect white jacket may be hard to come by in the right weight for Winter.</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olsen-europe-quilted-jacket#post-1324820 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 20:31:57 +0000 rachylou 1324820@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote pass. I feel like it's a little snug and the fabrication could be better... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olsen-europe-quilted-jacket#post-1324819 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 20:30:49 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1324819@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deliciously comfy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olsen-europe-quilted-jacket#post-1324818 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 20:29:57 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1324818@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In the actual Olsen change room - different SA. She's pleasant and non pushy.</p> <p>The cardigan and striped sweater are fab btw. Behind me is the graphic tee. Gorgeous quality and weight but waaaaay too long on me.</p> <p>I'm thinking this jacket could be a way for me to add some winter white and lightness to my darker wardrobe? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olsen-europe-quilted-jacket#post-1324816 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 20:28:02 +0000 Debra 1324816@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like it and it would work with your wardrobe.....is it comfy ? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olsen-europe-quilted-jacket#post-1324815 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 20:27:33 +0000 Kim 1324815@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it a lot, but I like jackets (have too many) and love black and white anything!&nbsp; </p> <p>The fit looks great on you!&nbsp; Are you in the "economy class" change rooms or did the siren call of Olsen lure you back to their change rooms? (And what is that lovely thing hanging up on the wall behind you??)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olsen-europe-quilted-jacket#post-1324807 Wed, 06 Aug 2014 20:14:15 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1324807@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In the change room - this is the Olsen Europe cream/black quilted moto jacket. For fall. Would take all my dollars in my fashion fund jar to date but lovely on. Sleeves need shortening.</p> <p>Buy or leave? Would work well with wrigjt changes. </p>
