It looks fantastic on you, and I've no doubt it will become a very versatile player in your wardrobe.<br /><br />I sent you an email earlier today:&nbsp;No sign of my jacket yet-((( https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets/page/2#post-881165 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 17:08:13 +0000 Transcona Shannon 881165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I really like your reasoning here Sveta - I agree, play with it and see how it works with your wardrobe. I think you're going to fall even MORE in love with that pretty white moto! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets/page/2#post-881160 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 17:05:08 +0000 Sveta 881160@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Wow, such a flurry of comments and such devided opinions - no wonder I could not make my mind in the store!<br />Sorry ths was 'post and run' so far - I had a splitting headacke yesterday and could not be on the computer at all. And today I came to work afetr 2.5 weeks of vacation and got immediately sucked into 2.5 hour customer meeting...really I want to go back to Portugal!<br />Mochi, I see your point about the striped top but on the other hand it helpw to assess the length better, don't you think?<br />Suz, I tried on that jacket with snake trim but it was not a good fit at all for me. Angie, it is a good point on the length, I have to remember that longer jackets were my goal for this year!<br />Inge, did you get your jacket yet? I begin to worry...<br /><br />I am leaning towards&nbsp;#3 now for the followig reasons:<ul><li>it has the most comfortable fit of the 3 while still being fitted;</li><li>it has the longer body length;</li><li>it has longer sleeves;</li><li>I don't have a moto jacket yet so it will expand my wardrobe both with color and style. I usually don't like the tab collars but this one is really well designed. It is lower and not as tight as usual so I can wear it closed - something I was not able to do with any other tab colar as they were choking me.</li></ul>I think my next step is to play with it in my closet and see how many ways I can style it - fun!<br />Thank you all so much for your feedback, it really helped me to make up my mind!!!!&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets/page/2#post-881157 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 17:04:41 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 881157@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ It's crazy, but until I saw them on you, #2 was my hands-down favorite (going by the online website photo).&nbsp; Then #3, then #1.&nbsp; On you, I like #1 best, but #3 is a very close contender.&nbsp;&nbsp; <br /><br />But you look happier and more at ease somehow in #3, so that gets my vote.<br /><br />Actually, scratch everything I said above. &nbsp;&nbsp; <i>The one that makes you feel happiest gets my vote. </i><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets/page/2#post-881117 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 16:34:33 +0000 Suz 881117@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Pssst, Sveta, maybe you could get #1 <b>and</b> #3....<br /><br />I tried on #2 as well. &nbsp;I didn't care for it on myself. It was hard to put my finger on why. The taupe jacket has a different neckline:&nbsp;<br /><br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.danier.com/leather-lookbook-womens-campaign-spring-2012-110030363-P6175.aspx?lang=en&amp;colour=198|cab485&amp;mc=yes"><a href="http://www.danier.com/leather-lookbook-womens-campaign-spring-2012-110030363-P6175.aspx?lang=en&#038;colo" rel="nofollow">http://www.danier.com/leather-.....&#038;colo</a>...</a><br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets/page/2#post-881059 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 15:53:40 +0000 Angie 881059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Such a mixed bag of responses, Sveta! Do you have a preference at all?<br /><br />I forgot to add in my first comment&nbsp;that #2 also looks too short. I do prefer you in longer jackets. Still holding strong that #3 is my favourite and #1 is a close second. I actually love the contrast buttons!&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets/page/2#post-881053 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 15:47:29 +0000 Anonymous 881053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I actually like 1 the best I think, if you swapped the buttons out. I like the classic longer blazer shape, and then the fun is that it is leather instead of cloth.<br /><br />But 3 looks good too :)<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets/page/2#post-881047 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 15:40:01 +0000 Tina.b 881047@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like #1 best. It is a great shape on you. #2 feels like something is missing on the collar. I also like #3 but am unsure about the collar shape on you. But the fit is perfect. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets/page/2#post-881045 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 15:38:36 +0000 Mochi 881045@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ To be honest, the horizontal white stripes of your shirt were a little distracting, so I'd wear something solid next time. But I prefer 3. I also think it's very you.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets/page/2#post-880964 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 14:19:40 +0000 texstyle 880964@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I saw a lot of love for 2 and 3 but you know, right away just looking at the photos&nbsp;I thought the fit of #1 was&nbsp;so great - front and back - but those dark buttons did kind of throw me off. MarkK (I think) made a great suggestion of changing them out. After #1 I prefer #3. I guess I agree that #3 is more "modern"&nbsp;but I guess that depends on what you're after. &nbsp;I do not like the neckline of #2 and don't love the way it&nbsp;lays when open nearly as much as the other two. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets/page/2#post-880956 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 14:09:28 +0000 Sona 880956@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ We missed you Sveta!<br /><br />I am all for #3 or #1 depending on which will be more versatlie in your wwardrobe. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets/page/2#post-880953 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 14:06:15 +0000 Transcona Shannon 880953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ We missed you too Sveta!<br /><br />These all look lovely on you, but I do prefer #3. I like the moto fit on you and think it will be a more versatile style with your wardrobe. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets/page/2#post-880867 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 11:34:26 +0000 Parsley 880867@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Welcome back, Sveta! I hope your trip was great. I'm currently in Paris and it's quite chilly.<br /><br />You look great in all the jackets, so it's hard to choose. My personal favorite is #1, though. &nbsp;The style is classic, but the white leather keeps it trendy. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets/page/2#post-880845 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 10:03:34 +0000 Inge 880845@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oh welcome back, Sveta! I hope you had an amazing time in Portugal.<br /><br />So fun to see you immediately got to work on the white leather jackets;-)<br />I too prefer jacket 3 (maybe I'm a little biased;-). The blazer style in 1 is nice, but I'm not keen on the darker buttons and I think I prefer the fit of 3. I also like jacket 2 unzipped, but am not crazy about this collarless style zipped up.<br /><br />Let us know what you decide? https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets/page/2#post-880843 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 09:54:11 +0000 Jjsloane 880843@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like 1 best - the fit and style, but it's the least YOU I think<br />I think 2 seems snug zipped up<br />3 fits well and is a great look, but the neck would be bothersome to me https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets#post-880840 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 09:47:44 +0000 Mona 880840@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Nice to see you again, Sveta. They all fit so you nice but my favourite is #3 with #2 a close second.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets#post-880839 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 09:42:21 +0000 Anonymous 880839@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ My favorite on you is #1, including the black buttons, then #3. &nbsp;You look wonderful in all of them. &nbsp;If the third seems the most comfortable fit, go with that one. &nbsp;It may also be the best for your style.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets#post-880837 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 09:32:08 +0000 Suz 880837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Wow, responses here are fascinating! I think the jackets all look so good on you, Sveta, that a lot of the comments are more about what would work on the poster or what she would like personally for herself vs. what is necessarily best for you. I don't mean people <i><b>intend</b></i> to comment that way. Just that it's maybe the default when there is no obvious winner objectively for you? I wonder.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets#post-880818 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 06:31:12 +0000 Ingunn 880818@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Welcome back! I can see why this is difficult, because you could really keep them all. I think I prefer #2, but #1 is also a great option. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets#post-880816 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 06:20:08 +0000 Lyn D. 880816@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Hi Sveta,<br />1 and 2 are my faves.<br />3 looks a little space-suite to me. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets#post-880811 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 05:38:20 +0000 jayne 880811@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ boy, we are all over the place, I will vote for 2! i liked it best seen from the back, so shapely, and the front, even zipped as it seemed to pull less than 3 https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets#post-880803 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 05:34:36 +0000 lyn* 880803@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ 1) #2 - so versatile and mod!<br />2) #3 - I'm more worried this collar would be limiting.<br />3) #1 - I don't like this one as much<br /><br />:)&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets#post-880801 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 05:31:55 +0000 Aida 880801@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ For you I like #1 (might swap buttons to a lower contrast) and #3 (the tab at the neck is from functional moto jackets) https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets#post-880789 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 05:20:46 +0000 Ariadne 880789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ #3, or #2 if only wearing unzipped.<br /><br />You look lovely in white! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets#post-880722 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 03:03:04 +0000 Deborah 880722@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Sveta so nice to have you back!&nbsp; I love #2.&nbsp;I actually love the neckline of #2 open and zipped.&nbsp; Im afraid it's just my personal preferece but I don't like the neckline on #3 and tend to think that neckline looks a bit funny when turned down. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets#post-880718 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 03:00:46 +0000 Jaime 880718@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Tough call, but I think I like #1 the best. You look terrific in white leather! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets#post-880714 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 02:57:12 +0000 Tanya 880714@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Welcome back Sveta! &nbsp;Can't wait to hear all about your trip!<br /><br />#3 gets my vote, hands down. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-battle-of-white-leather-jackets#post-880700 Mon, 18 Mar 2013 02:31:09 +0000 Carla 880700@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The fit of # 2 is amazing, but I wonder that the open neckline might reduce it's versatility ( would need a scarf or something in cooler weather.). # 3 is a&nbsp;<i>very&nbsp;<b></b></i><b></b>close second, and with the ability to style the neckline in different ways, is probably the more versatile choice.<br /><br />&nbsp;Welcome back!
