I love the funnel neck option! You look fantastic! Great call on the alterations.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/praise-the-alterations-lady-outerwear-edition#post-1556023 Sat, 12 Sep 2015 22:30:58 +0000 Caro in Oz 1556023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Woo hoo jacket &amp; coat options!! You look fantastic Astrid.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/praise-the-alterations-lady-outerwear-edition#post-1555952 Sat, 12 Sep 2015 20:27:38 +0000 Astrid 1555952@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone! And Suz, it definitely gives me more options. I would say the jacket isn't a replacement for anything else, it really is right between denim jacket and wool coat temperature wise. It will be nice to have on days when it's to warm for the coat but a denim jacket wouldn't be quite warm enough. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/praise-the-alterations-lady-outerwear-edition#post-1555943 Sat, 12 Sep 2015 20:19:00 +0000 shedev 1555943@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both coats look great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/praise-the-alterations-lady-outerwear-edition#post-1555936 Sat, 12 Sep 2015 20:06:45 +0000 Anonymous 1555936@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I only saw the coat pre-alterations, and it's just perfect now. Your hair look amazing, too. The days we spend attending to the details can turn out to be the best </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/praise-the-alterations-lady-outerwear-edition#post-1555935 Sat, 12 Sep 2015 20:06:38 +0000 Suz 1555935@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay!! Wins all round. I would wear that coat to death, too. What a great buy for you. At long last! And brava for fixing the jacket, too -- it will give you fall options, which is always nice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/praise-the-alterations-lady-outerwear-edition#post-1555934 Sat, 12 Sep 2015 20:02:25 +0000 Susie 1555934@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The coat is just perfect now!

And she takes so little money for it too.

I love the coat now and the jacket should be great for transitional wear. I LOVE your hair. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/praise-the-alterations-lady-outerwear-edition#post-1555821 Sat, 12 Sep 2015 15:01:21 +0000 Maneera 1555821@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow....fabulous job on the coats!

I love the look of it when it's really short, directly after the cut. I think I have to schedule my cuts a bit more frequently. And yes, I'm all sorted with outerwear now... </p> <p>Thank you, Angie! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/praise-the-alterations-lady-outerwear-edition#post-1555801 Sat, 12 Sep 2015 14:26:39 +0000 Angie 1555801@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your hair is adorable and the new coat is killer, Astrid.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/praise-the-alterations-lady-outerwear-edition#post-1555793 Sat, 12 Sep 2015 14:21:41 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 1555793@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>First, your hair cut is almost too cute for words. &nbsp;</p> <p>Great job on the alterations too. &nbsp;Both jackets fit well and look really nice. &nbsp;You are set for the cooler weather now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/praise-the-alterations-lady-outerwear-edition#post-1555789 Sat, 12 Sep 2015 14:15:51 +0000 Astrid 1555789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Finally got my hair cut today and then went to fetch both my new coat and another jacket from my alterations lady afterwards. Some of you might remember the moleskin jacket - I bought it last spring but didn't wear it much because of the bulky sleeves. I got them slimmed down and it looks and feels so much better! I think I'm definitely going to wear it more this fall now that the issue is fixed. And of course I had the sleeves of my new coat shortened, again slimmed down a bit at the same time. I LOVE the result, it's awesome. Now it doesn't feel at all oversized, with the sleeves being the proper width and length. I can already tell that I will love this coat to death... </p>
