Good trade, IMO, provided that the jacket works. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-talk-me-out-of-these#post-496970 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 12:07:36 +0000 Deborah 496970@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad you have ordered the jacket... its fabulous.

GET. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-talk-me-out-of-these#post-496851 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 04:07:09 +0000 annagybe 496851@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So even though Alexander Wang's sizing is extremely inconsistent. I ordered a large. Luckily, net-a-porter does free shipping and returns. Y'all are a bunch of enablers. I also ordered some booties on super sale from Neiman's. I will so be on SYC come 1/1/2012.<br /> To offset I will return the Fiorentini + Baker boots to Barneys. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-talk-me-out-of-these#post-496802 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 03:01:36 +0000 Anonymous 496802@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry I can't help you.

I don't care fir the look of belly buttons through clothing, personally.</p> <p>The jacket is amazing and a great price. Sorry. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-talk-me-out-of-these#post-496742 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 01:13:44 +0000 cciele 496742@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The tank looks like lingerie and the jacket is boxy. Not sure that helped but, there you go </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-talk-me-out-of-these#post-496735 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 01:04:31 +0000 annagybe 496735@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The thing is Seattle rain is mostly drizzle. My navy suede slouch boots are over three years old and I'm haphazard at best at spraying them and they still look good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-talk-me-out-of-these#post-496731 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 01:02:16 +0000 Jonesy 496731@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay, here goes: The tank looks cheap (i.e., inexpensive) and I'll bet that thin fabric will ride up over your stomach and refuse to stay smooth when you wear it. I have a harder time dissing the jacket, since it looks pretty cool. How does suede outerwear hold up in a rainy climate? That's all I got :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-talk-me-out-of-these#post-496692 Fri, 30 Dec 2011 00:11:38 +0000 Angie 496692@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Leave the tank alone. </p> <p>I do love the jacket, and that's a great Seattle piece. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-talk-me-out-of-these#post-496671 Thu, 29 Dec 2011 23:56:51 +0000 Ana 496671@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I seem to be having trouble seeing the links you post from Saks Fifth Avenue, but if it's a tank top, it's probably not that practical for your climate. I can see the jacket however, and I'm sorry, but I can't manage to think of a good reason to talk you out of it, because I think it's gorgeous and seems to suit your style very well. Why do you want to be talked out of it? : )</p> <p>ETA: Okay, having looked at it again, it IS suede, which also may not suit your climate since it rains there a lot. I'd be worried about it getting wet any time I wore it, which might take all the fun out of it for me. Does that help? ; ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-talk-me-out-of-these#post-496666 Thu, 29 Dec 2011 23:52:13 +0000 san 496666@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not sure how you'd wear the tank. It doesn't look like outerwear for Seattle.<br /> The jacket is very nice but I'm a bit concerned with it's boxyness and the epulets might make the shoulders very wide. You wouldn't know till you tried it though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-talk-me-out-of-these#post-496663 Thu, 29 Dec 2011 23:47:14 +0000 Isis 496663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>AND I really like the skirt it's shown with!</p> <p>ETA: Actually it's a really cool dress! even better! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-talk-me-out-of-these#post-496660 Thu, 29 Dec 2011 23:46:09 +0000 Isis 496660@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Saks tank is not suited for your climate; you won't get much wear out of it....</p> <p>I'm having a lot more trouble talking you out of the jacket; it's really great! I guess you could argue that suede would be a pain in a rainy climate....but wow, it's a great piece...if it's not a duplicate a black cropped super-cool jacket in your closet, I'd very tempted!</p> <p>Sorry to be of little help on the second piece..... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-talk-me-out-of-these#post-496654 Thu, 29 Dec 2011 23:41:51 +0000 annagybe 496654@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><a href="http://www.saksfifthavenue.com/main/ProductDetail.jsp?FOLDER%3C%3Efolder_id=2534374306418056&#038;PRODUCT%3C%3Eprd_id=845524446426192&#038;R=478538455539&#038;P_name=VPL&#038;N=1553+306418056&#038;bmUID=jiaTEoC" rel="nofollow">http://www.saksfifthavenue.com.....ID=jiaTEoC</a></p> <p>And</p> <p><a href="http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/161581" rel="nofollow">http://www.net-a-porter.com/product/161581</a> </p>
