Una, mebbe this jacket will become a part of your "uniform" kind of like the equipment blouse? </p> <p>Mo, I'm glad you kept this one and did not risk a sell-out. It would have been tragic to be jacketless because of what-might-have-been with a size 4, especially since you like the looks of the 6. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here/page/2#post-666320 Wed, 11 Jul 2012 23:52:29 +0000 Mo 666320@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh no on the cancelled order!! Hate that.<br /> I did settle on this size . . . mostly because I was not willing to risk having the 4 sell out while I waited for credit on the refund. I am happy with my choice and know I'll have years of love with this one :)<br /> Una, can't wait to see the grey one, too! Ooh, duplicating leather - that's a big step up from knit tops lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here/page/2#post-666313 Wed, 11 Jul 2012 23:34:34 +0000 catgirl 666313@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay, confession time: I ordered the grey. And I'm not sorry. I would have gotten it instead of the blush had it been on sale then. I love the blush one too.</p> <p>Mo, have you settled on this size now? I think it's right for you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here/page/2#post-666303 Wed, 11 Jul 2012 23:08:36 +0000 cciele 666303@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the 6 looks really good as is, Mo. Definitely a keeper.</p> <p>Unfortunately they cancelled my order for the size 8 -- oh well, I just spent that money at the NAS presale </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here/page/2#post-665521 Wed, 11 Jul 2012 03:49:33 +0000 velvetychocolate 665521@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very late to the party - but what a fabulous jacket on you Mo! I love the blush colour, and I think the size you got fits just perfectly. Agree with the comment upthread re: a slightly boxy fit in a moto jacket is very fab. </p> <p>What a great jacket you got! Just fabulous on you!!</p> <p>It sure seems like you're very, very good at researching, really thinking about what you'll get and then seizing on just the perfect thing. You did that with the suit you got too...you're good at this </p> <p>Now, if fall can just start right about now, then we'll be set...right? </p> <p>When does fall start where you are anyway? December? ....*kidding*. That said, you have done very, very well ...love this jacket on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here/page/2#post-660280 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 19:23:39 +0000 Lisa 660280@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't mind the fit here. And this color is gorgeous on you. You wear blush and pastel tones quite well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here/page/2#post-660216 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 18:47:19 +0000 catgirl 660216@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oops double post. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here/page/2#post-660183 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 18:27:32 +0000 catgirl 660183@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oops just saw your edit. I am at the cabin but will check my armholes when I get home<br /> To see if I think size would make a difference. Body quirks sure make things interesting sometimes... I didn't even think to measure that part! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here/page/2#post-660174 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 18:18:46 +0000 catgirl 660174@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hey Mo, just to clarify, I could have sized down but it would have been a tighter fit, and as I said in your other thread I prefer cropped items a little looser. I know you like a close fit so it can't hurt to try one down, unless you end up<br /> liking this one better. FWIW mine has not stretched much but has confirmed. Not sure it would need to stretch though since it's not tight. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here/page/2#post-660116 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 17:51:33 +0000 Jem 660116@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just wanted to say how gorgeous that color looks on you! I hope you can get the sizing issue worked out! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here/page/2#post-660070 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 16:52:41 +0000 Mo 660070@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can hope! I'll be holding on to this one for sure until and unless a trade comes around. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here/page/2#post-660067 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 16:43:12 +0000 rae 660067@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh noes! Is there anyone out there in YLF Land who needs a 6? Maybe they could get the 4 and then trade with you? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here/page/2#post-660055 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 16:06:19 +0000 Mo 660055@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Rae, I am thinking I will try the 4. If I hike the jacket up on so my arms fit at the right part of the sleeve, there is plenty of extra shoulder room. And I can cross the front at least an inch overlap where it zips.</p> <p>EDIT: ARGH. Of course there is always a catch . . . if I return the 6 I have to wait for the credit to be applied before I can order the 4. Which means it may sell out before that happens. In which case I won't have a 4 *or* a 6!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here/page/2#post-660044 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 15:45:22 +0000 rae 660044@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mo, if it helps you any, when I tried on Muubaa I needed a size 2 because the 4 was too big on my shoulders. The one I tried on was supposed to be more fitted, though. Hopefully that gives you some idea, since we have the VS jacket in common. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here/page/2#post-659967 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 13:43:53 +0000 Diana 659967@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Late to the party but this looks good to me! I like this slightly boxier fit for motos - I don't think they should be skintight. My black leather moto jacket does the arm thing a little too but it's softened up enough that it feels fine now. I would not have wanted to size down because I don't think the smaller one would have zipped up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here/page/2#post-659962 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 13:38:58 +0000 Suz 659962@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, this is fantastic on you! I always think when YLF starts up a rash of ordering that's a good sign the item flattered the wearer!! </p> <p>I hope you feel good about the fit now. It would be nice to try the other size just to make sure, but in terms of looks, this one is fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here/page/2#post-659960 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 13:33:10 +0000 Mo 659960@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Una, I know it sounds counterintuitive, but if I sized down, there would be a smaller armhole, and it would therefore hit closer up to my actual underarm. Right now, I have constriction because the armhole hits lower on my arm and so it cuts across near my bicep when I go to raise up. Make sense? Picture the exaggerated version of an armhole opening hitting halfway down your ribcage - there would be no rotation there - your arm would only move so far away from your body.<br /> Knowing that you could size down if it weren't for your shoulders has me thinking I'll try it around the house today and decide if I should go down to a 4. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here#post-659911 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 11:28:06 +0000 Deborah 659911@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mo this looks fabulous on you! Love the cut, love the color. Fit looks good in the photos. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here#post-659909 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 11:26:10 +0000 ManidipaM 659909@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mo, I hope Rae's experienced estimate that the leather will soften up and mould to allow unrestricted movement soon is spot on, because this is just divine on you. What a gorgeous, gorgeous colour! Suits you to a T. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here#post-659813 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 05:42:58 +0000 AJ 659813@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad to see you made it to Florida!</p> <p>This jacket is FAB on you! Like Una, I'm also a bit confused why you would want to size down if the sleeves feel restrictive. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here#post-659811 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 05:04:58 +0000 catgirl 659811@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mo, you look so fab in this jacket! I am confused about the armhole issue. If you are having trouble with arm fit being restrictive, how will sizing down help? I love the fit as is. Since you don't have my shoulders you could probably size down if you preferred. I think I could but for the shoulders. Can't wait to see you rock it!</p> <p>BTW I am seriously contemplating the grey which would have been my color of choice had I been able to find it at that price! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here#post-659729 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 02:25:24 +0000 Janet 659729@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, drool. It looks great on you! I think the size is fine, especially if you may want to wear some thicker layers underneath it in cool months. And it's Muubaa! </p> <p>Lord have mercy, they have it in grey too. I'd be soooo tempted if I hadn't just bought that blue leather jacket in Boston. But if I were going to get one more leather jacket, I think it would be white. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here#post-659697 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 01:49:51 +0000 Jonesy 659697@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really love it and the color looks lovely on you! Not sure what to think about the arm constriction....is it a deal-breaker? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here#post-659625 Tue, 03 Jul 2012 00:04:36 +0000 City Poodle 659625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The jacket looks like it fits you similar to the model. It's a gorgeous jacket and I think it looks terrific on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here#post-659563 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 22:42:43 +0000 Mo 659563@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm glad you all like it as much as I do. It is also reassuring to hear the fit looks good, if maybe on the roomier side.<br /> For Greenglove, a few (I hope better) pics of the color. Laid next to my taupey beige jacket and pink lounge tank for comparison. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here#post-659530 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 21:57:53 +0000 Tanya 659530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the blush jacket on you Mo! And I like the fit just as is. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here#post-659521 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 21:52:47 +0000 Mo 659521@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay!! Can't wait to see yours!<br /> I might have to play dress up in the house with mine mostly for a few months - I got it the first day I landed in FL for the summer lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here#post-659518 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 21:48:08 +0000 cciele 659518@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, I pulled the trigger :b I was going to save for that turquoise one at NAS, but this is more my style, and I like the light color! Plus, I don't have any real leather jackets (just pleather) so that's my excuse and I'm sticking to it.</p> <p>Looking forward to joining the Mo/Una clan! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here#post-659510 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 21:42:17 +0000 Care 659510@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Maybe a little off topic, but I've been looking for some longer shorts and really like yours. What brand are they? Thanks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/the-crop-blush-moto-is-here#post-659508 Mon, 02 Jul 2012 21:40:15 +0000 Beth Ann 659508@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll defer to more experienced leather wearers on fit, except to say that this one doesn't seem droopy or oversized. I wanted to pop in to say that it is amazingly lovely, and fits your style perfectly! </p>
