I'm somewhere between S and M recently with my jackets, if you usually wear XS (which I never do) I would try the S first, I think. Aida on "Should I order the Zara jacket?

I had been hesitating to buy because I thought it was muted but if you say it's a more vibrant green then I think I should try. I was also debating between the S and M, usually wear XS but often have to size to S for my shoulders. Astrid on "Should I order the Zara jacket?

I went to another Zara store today and they had it there. It looked nice, but unfortunately the color looks completely different IRL than on my screen. It's a much more vibrant warm deep olive green. Not my color at all. Seems like I have to keep looking. Vicki on "Should I order the Zara jacket?

It is a great-looking jacket and I hope you get it. Mo on "Should I order the Zara jacket?

No help on sizing, I'm afraid. Astrid on "Should I order the Zara jacket?

I'm thinking about having another look in a different Zara tomorrow to see if they have it there so I don't have to order it at all. Just not sure. Inge on "Should I order the Zara jacket?

They say they don't deliver to a store for orders that are placed before the 29th. No idea why. I could wait, but I'm not sure it won't be sold out then. And the normal delivery times are longer now. Express is now as fast as standard delivery normally is. Inge on "Should I order the Zara jacket? And in what size?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-order-the-zara-jacket-and-in-what-size#post-656793 Thu, 28 Jun 2012 19:47:14 +0000 Inge 656793@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I believe I chose express delivery because I really wanted to wear the blouse to a party that same week. But if it's not that urgent, I would just go with standard delivery (less expensive). Or you could even have it delivered to a store near you, that option is free.

I'm thinking about ordering both sizes now. Did you do standard delivery, Inge? Also good to know about PayPal. Inge on "Should I order the Zara jacket?

I recently ordered something via Zara online and was very happy with their service. Fast delivery, and if something doesn't work out you can return to a brick and mortar store. FYI: I did need to return something, and by the time I got home from the shops the money had already been refunded to my PayPal account. rae on "Should I order the Zara jacket?

You might want to try two sizes. Astrid on "Should I order the Zara jacket? And in what size?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-order-the-zara-jacket-and-in-what-size#post-656775 Thu, 28 Jun 2012 19:30:15 +0000 Astrid 656775@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thanks Diana! I also had a look at the size chart and I think I'll try the Medium. I already looked for it in the store, but they didn't have it. I have never ordered online with Zara before, but well why not. Diana on "Should I order the Zara jacket? And in what size?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-order-the-zara-jacket-and-in-what-size#post-656773 Thu, 28 Jun 2012 19:27:18 +0000 Diana 656773@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Yes, try it! I find Zara to run small, although I realized when looking at the size chart the other day that they think a US size 8 is a Large. Which explains why I can fit into both my normal size 8 and a Large there. So I think the size chart is actually somewhat accurate... Best if you could find it in a store, though, of course. Astrid on "Should I order the Zara jacket? And in what size?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-order-the-zara-jacket-and-in-what-size#post-656765 Thu, 28 Jun 2012 19:21:02 +0000 Astrid 656765@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ So the other jacket obviously didn't work out, should I try the Zara jacket? It's even on sale now, only 40€. Any ideas about the size? I'm not sure if a s or a m would be better. I think I'd try the m first, Zara normally runs small, right?
