The color is gorgeous and the peplum is so fun. Once again I wish Nordstrom's would hurry up and open here in Vancouver! I'm scared to order online with the costs of duty and the difficulty of returning items from here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa-gibson-equestrian-blazer-back-in-deep-crimson-at-nordstrom#post-729229 Mon, 24 Sep 2012 01:54:12 +0000 Suz 729229@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks terrific on you, but you were right to walk away if it isn't *you.* Thanks for posting pics - they really help!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa-gibson-equestrian-blazer-back-in-deep-crimson-at-nordstrom#post-729222 Mon, 24 Sep 2012 01:49:12 +0000 Beth 729222@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nancy, thanks so much for the photos. It really helps! </p> <p>I'm not a fan of the ruching either, but this jacket looks fab on you and it's so pretty in the crimson that I might have to consider it anyway:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa-gibson-equestrian-blazer-back-in-deep-crimson-at-nordstrom#post-728480 Sat, 22 Sep 2012 23:44:03 +0000 Transcona Shannon 728480@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks positively smashing on you Nancy, but if you don't like the sleeves then you were right to walk away. It is a lovely rich colour, isn't it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa-gibson-equestrian-blazer-back-in-deep-crimson-at-nordstrom#post-728476 Sat, 22 Sep 2012 23:41:28 +0000 nancylee 728476@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK, I was actually in a Nordstrom today and tried on the Gibson blazer. It does run small IMO. The medium fit me perfectly, and I'm normally a Small/size 4-6 in more upscale brands (although I have needed a 6-8 or a Medium on occasion due to my broad shoulders). It is really cute, especially the peplum detail. It does have the gathered/ruched sleeves that many (all?) Gibson blazers seem to feature, and I have to confess I'm not a fan of that styling so I decided not to buy. Good luck to all who've ordered (Laura)..and remember that I do have somewhat broad shoulders. :)</p> <p>Here are a few photos.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa-gibson-equestrian-blazer-back-in-deep-crimson-at-nordstrom#post-728374 Sat, 22 Sep 2012 22:02:22 +0000 Keix 728374@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>We all have different bodies and proportions, so I will keep my fingers crossed for you, Laura! I wore the blazer today (rare, I usually like to let my new purchases sit for a while) and it was comfortable for all-day city shopping but also definitely a closely tailored fit for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa-gibson-equestrian-blazer-back-in-deep-crimson-at-nordstrom#post-728073 Sat, 22 Sep 2012 10:55:39 +0000 Laura 728073@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Uh-oh, KL, I too ordered the burgundy in a SP, which is usually a sure thing. I hope it's not teeny tiny. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa-gibson-equestrian-blazer-back-in-deep-crimson-at-nordstrom#post-727946 Sat, 22 Sep 2012 02:11:48 +0000 catgirl 727946@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I tried this newer version on too and felt it ran quite small in the shoulders - I have a S in the older version and the M was straining at the seams on me in the burgundy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa-gibson-equestrian-blazer-back-in-deep-crimson-at-nordstrom#post-727929 Sat, 22 Sep 2012 01:24:47 +0000 Keix 727929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I received my blazer today--LOVE the burgundy color and the peplum is very flattering--and I do think that it runs small. I bought the Small Petite and it JUST fits in the armholes and waist with a sleeveless top underneath. The shoulders are a tiny bit wide but I certainly couldn't size down; if I had more of a bust, I would consider going up to a Small Regular for more arm mobility. </p> <p>I'm normally a size 2 in structured button-downs and size 0 in knit tops, very small bust and a waistless torso. I think the XSP in this jacket could probably fit a 00 who has not-narrow shoulders. The SP fits me like an Anthro size 2 or a juniors' size XS. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa-gibson-equestrian-blazer-back-in-deep-crimson-at-nordstrom#post-727178 Fri, 21 Sep 2012 02:48:47 +0000 fern 727178@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just received my Large in the green color (also online) - I don't think it's running way too small. I'm a 10-12 for tops but not busty.<br /> I'll try to take pics for a K/R tomorrow. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa-gibson-equestrian-blazer-back-in-deep-crimson-at-nordstrom#post-727002 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 23:49:48 +0000 Suz 727002@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh! Nancy - thank you! I really like it in that colour. Hmmmm..... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa-gibson-equestrian-blazer-back-in-deep-crimson-at-nordstrom#post-726991 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 23:41:46 +0000 Beth 726991@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, I didn't even realize it came in colors other than black! Verrrry tempting:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa-gibson-equestrian-blazer-back-in-deep-crimson-at-nordstrom#post-726949 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 23:01:20 +0000 Beth Ann 726949@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I SO want this blazer, but it only goes to a large, which is listed as a size 10, and the website suggests ordering a size up! Such a shame, because I think this styling is really flattering on a larger frame.</p> <p>Petite YLFers, I'll enjoy it on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/psa-gibson-equestrian-blazer-back-in-deep-crimson-at-nordstrom#post-726831 Thu, 20 Sep 2012 20:24:46 +0000 nancylee 726831@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know some YLFers were eyeing the Gibson peplum blazer, but were disappointed that it was sold out in deep crimson/burgundy. Well, it's back in stock:</p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/gibson-equestrian-blazer/3341186?cm_ven=Linkshare&#038;cm_cat=partner&#038;cm_pla=10&#038;cm_ite=1&#038;siteId=fV7QgDWUWe0-C7n31za7byjk.yTzTN82Iw" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/gi......yTzTN82Iw</a></p> <p>It's getting great reviews and is also featured in Angie's store here on YLF. </p>
