I actually like the little stand collar better than no collar. To me it looks fun with your short hair! I hope you got it - you can always return it if you have buyer's remorse later. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/uh-oh-n-leather-jacket-1#post-667282 Fri, 13 Jul 2012 01:56:26 +0000 Anonymous 667282@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you are wearing it as outerwear, ignore my comments about the neck! Of course you will want it to go right up! The colour is versatile, and the fit looks good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/uh-oh-n-leather-jacket-1#post-667189 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 23:53:17 +0000 Anonymous 667189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Did you try the next size down? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/uh-oh-n-leather-jacket-1#post-667150 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 22:44:20 +0000 JulieJohn 667150@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks cute on ya. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/uh-oh-n-leather-jacket-1#post-667147 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 22:34:58 +0000 Anonymous 667147@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You fell in love with it, right? Otherwise you wouldn't have posted from the fitting room. If you're comfortable with the neckline, trust your instinct and keep it. Remember, you're the one who will be wearing it, and as alaskagirl so aptly said, she was expressing her personal issues with the neckline, which to me, looks pretty much exactly the neckline one would expect to find on a "biker-inspired" jacket. </p> <p>For what it's worth, I have three: a black one, a tobacco-coloured one, and a cream-coloured one for summer. All have stand-up collars, although I admit I have a long neck.</p> <p>It seems to me that a taupe jacket is the perfect all-season colour choice. So now you have to decide if the shape suits you. I think it does, but ultimately all any of us can do is express an opinion. Mine (and I'm an opinionated girl) is keep it and enjoy wearing it. The leather will soften, and the collar will be less of an issue as it "relaxes". </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/uh-oh-n-leather-jacket-1#post-667115 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 21:42:43 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 667115@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I did get it to try at home, figuring it'd probably sell out if I didn't. I'll take some better pics later and post. The collar didn't bother me @ the try on; I wouldn't buy this silhouette for a blazer but for a outerwear coat I'd prefer something that closes all the way for warmth whether it's the most flattering or not. Now you all have got me thinking... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/uh-oh-n-leather-jacket-1#post-667039 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 20:14:43 +0000 catgirl 667039@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, Shannon's is different - sorry about that. I was just pointing out my own neckline issues, which of course are only mine and no one else's! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/uh-oh-n-leather-jacket-1#post-667036 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 20:12:52 +0000 Transcona Shannon 667036@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just for clarification, the one I'm considering doesn't have this type of neckline. Your neckline is almost a Neru style collar whereas mine has no collar at all.</p> <p>I love this colour (Claire has a beautiful taupe one that is very versatile) and I think the fit is fab on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/uh-oh-n-leather-jacket-1#post-667025 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 20:01:17 +0000 Anonymous 667025@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it! The color is good on you and it seems to fit really well. You're looking good Laura! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/uh-oh-n-leather-jacket-1#post-667024 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 20:00:54 +0000 Anonymous 667024@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think the neck does you any favours, it looks stifling, and it does shorten your neck. Other than that, the colour and the shape are nice. I think you can do better though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/uh-oh-n-leather-jacket-1#post-667014 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 19:52:11 +0000 catgirl 667014@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a huge aversion (as I posted to Shannon) to this style of neckline on me. I think it's shortening and it bothers me physically. If you can handle that aspect, the jacket itself looks good on you and leather jackets are worthwhile investments! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/uh-oh-n-leather-jacket-1#post-666974 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 19:15:53 +0000 Anonymous 666974@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you're still there, Laura, GET IT!!! Yes, a nice leather jacket is an investment, even on sale, but it's also one of the absolute basics. A really useful garment that will look better as it ages. You can wear it with casuals, as well as to 'rock up' more girly things, and give an unexpected twist. In Paris, they are an absolute must-have, and that one is cute! (Hope I'm not too late!!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/uh-oh-n-leather-jacket-1#post-666960 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 18:59:00 +0000 qpswan 666960@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Decisions, decisions, decisions...</p> <p>The jacket nips in nicely at your waist but, I am not sure if the neck line works. It seems to make your neck looks short but that could just be the angle of the photo. I tend to have a long, goony neck so I notice these things...</p> <p>Good luck! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/uh-oh-n-leather-jacket-1#post-666959 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 18:58:57 +0000 Anonymous 666959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks good, although I will add that collars like that tend to bother my neck after awhile. Just something to consider! For that amount of money, you'd hate to find that wearing it ends up annoying you. Otherwise, go for it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/uh-oh-n-leather-jacket-1#post-666950 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 18:54:17 +0000 Ginkgo 666950@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it also! Both the color and the lines of the jacket are flattering on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/uh-oh-n-leather-jacket-1#post-666945 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 18:48:37 +0000 Laura (rhubarbgirl) 666945@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just because it's pricey even tho it's on sale I'm still in the dressing rm but I think I may get it, at least to think about. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/uh-oh-n-leather-jacket-1#post-666939 Thu, 12 Jul 2012 18:45:00 +0000 Kristin L 666939@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the jacket as well!
