I will never be over rose-gold.

Why not. It's a really fun piece. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ruh-roh-unplanned-rose-gold-muubaa-kr/page/2#post-1017684 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 13:04:05 +0000 Suz 1017684@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae, thank you for those stylings; I am sorry I had to run out and didn't get back. I love the close up photo of you -- you are so beautiful and glamorous.&nbsp;</p> <p>I think it is worth keeping and wearing at least to the event you've planned. See how it feels then. If you are loving it and reaching for it for work, too, then you have your answer. If not, as Denise says, you can always sell it. No real loss.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ruh-roh-unplanned-rose-gold-muubaa-kr/page/2#post-1017670 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 12:23:21 +0000 AnnieMouse 1017670@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Please don't misunderstand - it looks perfect on you, and I get the strong feeling you want to keep it. And I don't know the whole history of you + leather or you + poly linings, so my opinion isn't worth much. *laughing at self* </p> <p>BUT... I see a number of comments about those two things, and I have a vague recollection that you were trying to stop accumulating for a bit, and I always need help with my accountability when I'm trying to stop adding to my wardrobe - I can rationalise ANYTHING to myself, if I wanna. But that's not helpful for me or my goals. Feel free to tell me to hush - I won't take it personally at all. It's a hard balance, I suspect, for many of us: the urge to minimise against the "but it's PRETTY! And I WANTS it, Precious!" </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ruh-roh-unplanned-rose-gold-muubaa-kr/page/2#post-1017571 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 06:10:23 +0000 catgirl 1017571@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you don't find ways to wear it soon it is still current and totally sellable so I'd see where you go with it.&nbsp; All part of the style journey (bearing in mind I've had a few too many glasses of wine!).... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ruh-roh-unplanned-rose-gold-muubaa-kr/page/2#post-1017529 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 04:06:27 +0000 goldenpig 1017529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Intriguing! It looks lovely on you I vote keep!<br />(Plus that way, at least I won't feel silly for buying a gold lame blouse!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ruh-roh-unplanned-rose-gold-muubaa-kr/page/2#post-1017512 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 03:40:07 +0000 annagybe 1017512@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here it is on the Outnet</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.theoutnet.com/product/397920">http://www.theoutnet.com/product/397920</a></p> <p>That's where I first saw it. Now that I think about it I od'ed on rose gold. I'm not even reaching for my rose gold watch much anymore.&nbsp;Probably part of the reason I didn't pounce. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ruh-roh-unplanned-rose-gold-muubaa-kr/page/2#post-1017511 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 03:38:41 +0000 Day Vies 1017511@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If I hadn't already spent what little clothing budget I had I'd be looking for one myself. OMG -- this is SO divine. I thought it was cute with the destroyed shorts then I got to the LBD and couldn't close my mouth. That is a keeper I agree with your ideas this would glam up or give edge to any of those combinations. KEEPER!!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ruh-roh-unplanned-rose-gold-muubaa-kr/page/2#post-1017504 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 03:30:48 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 1017504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE this jacket!&nbsp; I vote keep it, wear it, and eventually, if you tire of it, sell it.</p> <p>And if that day should come... let us know the size and asking price&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ruh-roh-unplanned-rose-gold-muubaa-kr/page/2#post-1017497 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 03:24:23 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1017497@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So it's only the sleeves lined in poly but the body lined in cotton? To me the poly sleeves would not be a deal breaker - if you're like me at all, it's my body that gets over heated not my arms. And like you mention, scrunching the sleeves leave some arm exposure for cooling down. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ruh-roh-unplanned-rose-gold-muubaa-kr#post-1017491 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 03:18:04 +0000 rae 1017491@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Denise, you are a much better forecaster than I - will the rose gold be So Totally Over in a couple of months? If it's trending super hard right now, does that mean it will look old and dated super fast?</p> <p>Angie, thank you so much for chiming in! Hm, it is worrisome that I have stumped you to a degree... although I think I finally figured out that part of the trouble I had with my previous leathers is that I did not make a distinction between indoor and outdoor leather. Even though my double zip steampunk jacket has a viscose lining, it is hard to wear inside because it is so much heavier than everything else I'd wear to work. Your input on the color and style is very encouraging!</p> <p>Vildy, that is <i>wonderful</i> to know. Wonderful! Not just for this piece but forever after. High five!</p> <p>Annie, thanks for the honest opinion.</p> <p>Una, here are some photos from the web. On my monitor, none of the colors looks exactly like real life; I think it's a combo of all of them - either that or it changes with the light. The prettiness and non-chopped aspect of this one probably works in my favor for work. I'm always trying to pretty up my comfortable shoes and twill pants so that they make the cut for dress code. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ruh-roh-unplanned-rose-gold-muubaa-kr#post-1017466 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 02:33:00 +0000 catgirl 1017466@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do you have a stock photo? I'm having a hard time seeing details - is it as RATE as mine? I think the hacked off look of mine may no longer appeal, but what are your thoughts? The color certainly steps it up glam wise! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ruh-roh-unplanned-rose-gold-muubaa-kr#post-1017447 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 02:13:14 +0000 AnnieMouse 1017447@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this is a gorgeous piece, in keeping what I've seen of your WIW style, and I like the colour on you (it's perhaps not the BEST colour ever, but it works, and the shine is quite nice). </p> <p>But I see a lot of comments about you and poly-lined things being a problem? If the sleeves are lined in poly, as you noted uplist, and have had bad track records with them AND leather, I think I'd have to advise to let it go. It's nice, but it's not nice enough to override what seem to have been major dealbreaker/ problems in the past, no matter how drool worthy it is. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ruh-roh-unplanned-rose-gold-muubaa-kr#post-1017445 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 02:10:21 +0000 Lisa 1017445@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well I'm not going to talk you out of this piece, it's gorgeous on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ruh-roh-unplanned-rose-gold-muubaa-kr#post-1017440 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 02:08:42 +0000 Jaime 1017440@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely keep for now and sell later if you don't end up using/liking it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ruh-roh-unplanned-rose-gold-muubaa-kr#post-1017434 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 01:55:30 +0000 Vildy 1017434@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Plus, if you really, really hate the sleeve lining, all a tailor has to do is turn it inside out, break the stitching at armhole and cuff and cut a new one out of fabric you prefer and then restitch it to the lining. Doesn't even have to mess with the leather except at the turned back edge of the inside sleeve end. And there'll be holes already in that leather to sew the new sleeve liner to without even needing a thimble. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ruh-roh-unplanned-rose-gold-muubaa-kr#post-1017404 Fri, 30 Aug 2013 01:03:57 +0000 Anonymous 1017404@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is a gorgeous jacket and looks perfect on you. I agree that you can always sell it later if you change your mind - no need to give it up now! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ruh-roh-unplanned-rose-gold-muubaa-kr#post-1017320 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 23:46:19 +0000 CocoLion 1017320@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's very flattering on you. &nbsp;You can always sell it in a few months. &nbsp;You'll most likely make the same amount, providing you don't wait for the rose gold thing to be over. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ruh-roh-unplanned-rose-gold-muubaa-kr#post-1017319 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 23:44:23 +0000 Angie 1017319@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the jacket and colour on you, Rae. I think it's in line with the next leg of your style journey. A prettier and more refined and sophisticated UWP. </p> <p>That said, you have had many, MANY challenges with polyester linings and leather jackets over the last few years, that I am now at a loss as to how to advise you further. The only thing that gives me confidence and vote yay is that your style is shifting - and from what I can piece together and guess - this leather jacket fits the bill sartorially. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ruh-roh-unplanned-rose-gold-muubaa-kr#post-1017289 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 22:37:28 +0000 rae 1017289@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anna, exactly. That's why I need help! This is much lighter than any of my others have been and looks way better open, which is good for indoors. My other sleeves can't even scrunch. But like I said to Una, I have such a bad history of choosing ones that are tough to wear inside. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ruh-roh-unplanned-rose-gold-muubaa-kr#post-1017287 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 22:35:43 +0000 rae 1017287@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shannon, the sleeves are stilly lined in poly, but with scrunch ability, it feels like enough air flow. Do you think that is still a deal breaker?&nbsp;</p> <p><span>Cciele and Anna, I had not considered the color might be bad - thank you for bringing it up! Close up has been added up top.&nbsp;<br /></span><br />Una, you know my wants too well. I have definitely thought more than once that I would buy your cropped Muubaa if I could go back in time - perfect for work. But I have had such a bad track record with leather jackets - do you think this would be another mistake?</p> <p>Janet, aside from the wedding topper, it would fill a need for a lightweight blazer alternative for work.&nbsp;</p> <p>Suz, I have followed your advice. Not too many, cuz it's so hot... but it's pretty much the idea.&nbsp;</p> <p>Joy, I'll bust out the dress later in the evening, maybe. It is lavender chiffon. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ruh-roh-unplanned-rose-gold-muubaa-kr#post-1017283 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 22:33:19 +0000 annagybe 1017283@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Also didn't you say earlier that your leather jackets were harder to wear than envisioned. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ruh-roh-unplanned-rose-gold-muubaa-kr#post-1017280 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 22:27:55 +0000 Anonymous 1017280@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay! Keep, at least for now. If you find something you like better you can always sell it later. Can we see it with the bridesmaid dress? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ruh-roh-unplanned-rose-gold-muubaa-kr#post-1017277 Thu, 29 Aug 2013 22:18:38 +0000 lyn* 1017277@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE IT.
