You are sorted and look beautiful in your new coat, April! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/results-of-coat-alterations#post-62454 Sun, 26 Apr 2009 18:30:11 +0000 Alecia 62454@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't believe the difference. It's really amazing. I'm so glad you posted the two pictures. It's a lesson for us all. It's a beautiful coat. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/results-of-coat-alterations#post-62443 Sun, 26 Apr 2009 16:39:14 +0000 shana 62443@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, that did make a big difference! The coat looks great on you - it's going to be such a treat to pull it out later this fall (my favorite part of off-season shopping!). I love that chocolate brown color... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/results-of-coat-alterations#post-62410 Sun, 26 Apr 2009 11:40:35 +0000 April 62410@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I realized that even before Angie suggested the three-inch shortening, Shiny had given the advice to hem the coat. So thanks also to you, Shiny! </p> <p>I am capable of trusting good advice and acting on it, but I swear I'm not sure I will ever get to the point where I can see these things without needing advice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/results-of-coat-alterations#post-62393 Sun, 26 Apr 2009 04:29:28 +0000 Anonymous 62393@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>AMAZING! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/results-of-coat-alterations#post-62387 Sun, 26 Apr 2009 02:20:39 +0000 susand 62387@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks super! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/results-of-coat-alterations#post-62376 Sat, 25 Apr 2009 22:45:05 +0000 Mai 62376@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking good! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/results-of-coat-alterations#post-62375 Sat, 25 Apr 2009 22:23:12 +0000 Maya 62375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, what a difference!

I remember when you posted it I thought it was too big. It's not that now -- the hem on the bottom resolved that! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/results-of-coat-alterations#post-62361 Sat, 25 Apr 2009 21:15:18 +0000 marianne 62361@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks very sleek, April! The length makes a huge difference. It would have never occurred to me before YLF. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/results-of-coat-alterations#post-62356 Sat, 25 Apr 2009 20:36:18 +0000 April 62356@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The YLF crew helped me, a month or so ago, to select from between two winter coats for next year. (I know, I know -- it's in the 80s here on the East coast today, and the thought of winter coats is *so* unappealing, but I was determined to buy one in the amazing post-season sales.)</p> <p>This is the one I ended up keeping -- forgive the blurry picture taken with my old camera: <a href="http://s649.photobucket.com/albums/uu218/AprilYLF/?action=view&#038;current=131.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s649.photobucket.com/al.....nt=131.jpg</a></p> <p>Obviously the sleeves needed shortening, but Angie suggested hemming the bottom up three inches as well. Now, when I looked at the photo, I thought the length looked fine and it would never have occurred to me to hem it, but I took her advice and had it done. Well, it came back from the tailor's today, and that three inches made such a difference! See for yourself: <a href="http://s649.photobucket.com/albums/uu218/AprilYLF/?action=view&#038;current=IMG_0125.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://s649.photobucket.com/al.....G_0125.jpg</a></p> <p>Thanks, Angie! </p>
