But they don’t carry a lot in store, so online it is! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/succumbed-to-a-new-jacket#post-2370202 Tue, 17 Sep 2024 11:26:34 +0000 Sisi 2370202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would have succumbed as well! Beautiful jacket. I would need something like that myself (but I do not buy online, too much fuss ).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/succumbed-to-a-new-jacket#post-2370200 Tue, 17 Sep 2024 10:20:14 +0000 Karie 2370200@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great jacket, I’m loving the side zippers. Nice that you found it in the store- I always end up shopping Athleta online, because our local store never carries things in stock. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/succumbed-to-a-new-jacket#post-2370153 Mon, 16 Sep 2024 15:04:18 +0000 Jenny H 2370153@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hope you enjoy your jacket! I quite like it and would be interested in trying it if I didn't already have so many jackets. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/succumbed-to-a-new-jacket#post-2370086 Sun, 15 Sep 2024 17:44:19 +0000 Angie 2370086@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Gap group has made Finds impossible at this point :(</p> <p>Rest assured your mind is 100% </p> <p>Waving at my jacket twin!

As the days get shorter I start itching to break out my jackets. Still 30C/90F+ here though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/succumbed-to-a-new-jacket#post-2370057 Sat, 14 Sep 2024 21:58:02 +0000 Sal 2370057@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this jacket! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/succumbed-to-a-new-jacket#post-2370051 Sat, 14 Sep 2024 20:10:54 +0000 Lisa 2370051@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That bomber jacket is awesome! I've been eyeing it myself, but they never seem to have the navy in stock in my size. Congratulations on the new jacket! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/succumbed-to-a-new-jacket#post-2370043 Sat, 14 Sep 2024 18:21:11 +0000 Janet 2370043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, I knew you’d featured this jacket but could not find it in Finds — now I realize it’s because it’s a custom find! I thought I was losing my mind, LOL. </p> <p>It’s a great jacket. I like the moss color too, but it would have been more of a slam dunk for me in a cooler olive green. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/succumbed-to-a-new-jacket#post-2370042 Sat, 14 Sep 2024 17:13:48 +0000 kellygirl 2370042@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awesome! I have an older model of this in black which I love. It's a fab style. I was considering this in grey but it's sold out. Glad you went with the white - the tan doesn't look as sharp. Enjoy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/succumbed-to-a-new-jacket#post-2370039 Sat, 14 Sep 2024 15:20:36 +0000 Angie 2370039@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is the top pick Athleta jacket, <b>Janet</b>! (3rd Fab Find)</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://youlookfab.com/2024/06/17/fab-finds-skirts-dresses-and-hangers/">https://youlookfab.com/2024/06.....d-hangers/</a></p> <p>It's awesome and I have it in navy! It looks great when all three zips are unzipped too. I like it with wide jeans and wide Ponte pants. It's a fab travel jacket. I wear it on long flights. Many of my clients and friends got it too.</p> <p>Welcome to Team Athleta Bomber! I bet the white is fabulous on you :)&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/succumbed-to-a-new-jacket#post-2370038 Sat, 14 Sep 2024 15:16:43 +0000 Suz 2370038@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice jacket!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/succumbed-to-a-new-jacket#post-2370037 Sat, 14 Sep 2024 14:53:31 +0000 JAileen 2370037@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hahahaha! &nbsp;I’m exactly the same WRT jackets and coats. &nbsp;The jacket looks cute and will be just right for your climate. Of course, my eyes immediately went to the moss green one. &nbsp;I think the white will look good with your hair color.<div><br /></div><div>BTW, I just ordered a new jacket yesterday - a swim parka! &nbsp;We have a new municipal pool that I’ve been going to. &nbsp;It’s already cool enough to wear sweats to and fro, and it’s not even cold yet. &nbsp;I wanted something warm and cozy that I didn’t care if it were ruined by chlorine.</p> <p></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/succumbed-to-a-new-jacket#post-2370035 Sat, 14 Sep 2024 14:23:01 +0000 Janet 2370035@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Y’all know that I have a jacket weakness, despite the fact that our climate isn’t jacket-friendly from May through September. LOL But I have leaned into the cropped button-front shirt as a lightweight jacket this summer and am loving that.</p> <p>But… jackets call to me for the fall and winter. And I tried on this jacket in Athleta and really liked it, so it came home with me. It’s sporty but not gear. I chose the bright white after also considering the abalone, which is a nice neutral, but I think the bright white is more flattering on my coloring and makes a bit more of a statement. I have gotten good use out of white jackets as long as they are easy-laundering and this one should be. </p> <p>The length is nice — cropped but not too much so — and the zips at the hem are a nice touch. The ruching gives it some interest without being bulky. And the weight is good — light but substantial. I’ll be able to layer a bit underneath it. </p> <p>Now we just need some cool weather! And I may need to do a jacket edit to make a little room in my closet.</p> <p>Side note: my Finds collection tool doesn’t seem to be working. It seems ok while I’m on the Athleta website, but the find doesn’t show up here at YLF after I collect it. </p>
