Do you have anything even close to it ? Will it take away from what you need ?</p> <p>R&amp;J - I also adore camping gear/gadgets. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-tell-me-to-forget/page/2#post-372100 Thu, 23 Jun 2011 20:43:59 +0000 RoseandJoan 372100@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bless you Scarlet, what I'm really needing to focus on is camping gear....bother. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-tell-me-to-forget/page/2#post-372099 Thu, 23 Jun 2011 20:42:34 +0000 Scarlet 372099@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I could always send it to you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-tell-me-to-forget/page/2#post-372098 Thu, 23 Jun 2011 20:41:27 +0000 RoseandJoan 372098@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bother, bother, bother...I have been avoiding this thread because the jacket keeps calling my name. It dropped off of the front page and I could breathe and now here it is again....thankfully it is not on the UK website.....bother. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-tell-me-to-forget#post-372083 Thu, 23 Jun 2011 20:25:13 +0000 Scarlet 372083@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Astrid, thanks for the sympathy, yes, it was quite a chore!</p> <p>Heather, you are so right about asking and meeting I will follow-up with piccies.</p> <p>Jonesy, you are the best. Funnily enough, I really wouldn't have thought of that pairing--blazers and I are just starting to work things out after years of separation--but I will try it out! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-tell-me-to-forget#post-372073 Thu, 23 Jun 2011 20:15:21 +0000 Jonesy 372073@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Late here, but the jacket looks fab and perfect for you! I'll bet it will look cute over some of your dresses, like that fitted navy shirtdress that you were wondering about styling a while back (if my memory doesn't fail me!). Congrats on passing the driving test; that sounds pretty intense. Are you officially a German now :)? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-tell-me-to-forget#post-372054 Thu, 23 Jun 2011 19:30:39 +0000 Heather 372054@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hooray, Scarlet.</p> <p>I will encourage keeping the jacket (please post!!!): I feel you never asked yourself about the jacket because you had yet to meet each other. :D</p> <p>Congrats on passing the driving test--now drive it like you stole it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-tell-me-to-forget#post-372053 Thu, 23 Jun 2011 19:29:33 +0000 Astrid 372053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's a great blazer, I understand why you felt like you had to have it. </p> <p>Congratulations on passing your driver's license test! I know how hard it is (also German here!) - I had to take the practical test two times because I had a really strict examiner the first time who made me soo nervous I couldn't think straight. I was so angry about it and it did cost me so much money additionally! I'm out of probation period since this spring and I'm really glad about it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-tell-me-to-forget#post-372045 Thu, 23 Jun 2011 19:16:57 +0000 Scarlet 372045@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Charmian - you hit the nail on the head. I ask myself maybe twice per week, why don't I have non-skinny dark wash jeans? and zero times, why don't I have a gray summer blazer? This is really smart advice from you AND I love penguins.</p> <p>Nevertheless, I tried on the jacket after work and made the purchase. It's not that often that something really jumps out at me like this, and I am reassured knowing that a number of you also thought this was extra-adorable. I know exactly the jeans I want, and they are always available in some version, so they will have to wait another month or two. This is officially my reward for passing the f@!#$*@#$ German driver's license test this week. Although I had to give up my American license, sniff. sniff. sniff. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-tell-me-to-forget#post-372013 Thu, 23 Jun 2011 18:09:55 +0000 Charmian 372013@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It *is* adorable, and I really wish I could encourage you because I also have a blazer-shaped hole in my wardrobe.</p> <p>But -- here's the question you should ask yourself -- when you were dressing yourself last month, how often were you sighing to yourself "I wish I had non-skinny jeans" vs "I wish I had a gray summer blazer"? If the lack of non-skinny jeans has bugged you more, then I would encourage you to concentrate there first. When you're done filling that hole, you can always come back for the blazer ... with the added benefit of end-of-season sales! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-tell-me-to-forget#post-372000 Thu, 23 Jun 2011 18:00:00 +0000 Heather 372000@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't tell you to forget it because I want it, too! Love, Love! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-tell-me-to-forget#post-371978 Thu, 23 Jun 2011 17:11:56 +0000 tarzy 371978@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ann Taylor recently had a similar jacket that I almost bought, but passed on, and I'm so mad at myself! It sold out in a flash. I live in a warm climate though, and could have worn it quite often. I think that's a great, classic style! (Helping much?) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-tell-me-to-forget#post-371968 Thu, 23 Jun 2011 17:01:58 +0000 rute 371968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So pretty! A good investment! Those pieces never go out of style! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-tell-me-to-forget#post-371953 Thu, 23 Jun 2011 16:44:11 +0000 Scarlet 371953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you are talking me into this. I think I will go check if they still have it in-store. </p> <p>ETA: It's June and high tomorrow is 65. No problem there, sigh. It is cotton, not seersucker. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-tell-me-to-forget#post-371362 Wed, 22 Jun 2011 22:44:03 +0000 Anonymous 371362@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I absolutely love this blazer! If I didn't already have a striped blazer I'd be really tempted too. Sorry I can't help discourage you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-tell-me-to-forget#post-371335 Wed, 22 Jun 2011 21:34:13 +0000 Suz 371335@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are not getting very far with us, are you? I vote for buy and return if necessary, but I doubt it will be necessary. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-tell-me-to-forget#post-371327 Wed, 22 Jun 2011 21:24:15 +0000 morethanbeige 371327@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>very cute jacket. I can totally see you wearing this and looking adorable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-tell-me-to-forget#post-371325 Wed, 22 Jun 2011 21:22:17 +0000 taylor 371325@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Scarlet...that is adorable...and quite versatile as well:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-tell-me-to-forget#post-371314 Wed, 22 Jun 2011 21:05:28 +0000 lynn 371314@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Where do you live, weather wise? I bought a full price striped J Crew blazer this spring and only wore once or twice due to our hot, hot climate! I don't think mine can go in the fall but yours might be able to depending on the fabric. Is it seersucker or cotton? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-tell-me-to-forget#post-371303 Wed, 22 Jun 2011 20:52:33 +0000 Scarlet 371303@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz - I am not expert but I feel like the shrunken blazer will be good for at least a couple of years. Anyway I like the 3/4 length because I often scrunch anyway.</p> <p>Modgrl - I didn't try it on--I was afraid it might possibly stick to me and follow me home. In general Esprit cuts are really good for me, so I expect it would work. They cater well to petites,like most french and italian brands in my experience. At least I am pretty sure it's french.</p> <p>Lisa - good point with the turtleneck--i can envision that looking very cute.</p> <p>Well ladies, you are not doing a good job of discouraging me, I must say. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-tell-me-to-forget#post-371292 Wed, 22 Jun 2011 20:43:40 +0000 Ornella 371292@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I tell you - forget. Because you asked us to.</p> <p>Now I ask you if it's returnable. If yes, buy it, give it a few weeks and you'll know if you should really keep it or not. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/please-tell-me-to-forget#post-371270 Wed, 22 Jun 2011 20:28:45 +0000 nancylee 371270@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good luck with the forgetting. Its cuteness is now imprinted on my brain! </p>
