And it fits you so well.&nbsp;I'll remember to keep in mind the stretch factor if I'm ever looking for something similar. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-it-rains-it-pours#post-1086959 Sat, 16 Nov 2013 04:36:39 +0000 rae 1086959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Parsley and Suz, I don't know what I want. I do know that I want the red to be blood red - not tomato, not burgundy, not cherry. That is what's going to be tough. There is a VC tube in red, but it's totally tomato red. I would definitely prefer this color:<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/27303141464785284/">http://www.pinterest.com/pin/27303141464785284/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-it-rains-it-pours#post-1086952 Sat, 16 Nov 2013 04:29:48 +0000 deb 1086952@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks like a dark turquoise in the pick.

And I hear you on "improved mistakes." I feel something similar. Last year I would buy stuff and then discover that I really didn't even <b>like</b> it!! (Or at least I didn't like it on me). This year, I buy it and find out it is less comfortable than I'd hoped. It's a different order of mistake entirely.&nbsp;</p> <p>Parsley asks a good question. What do you want in red? Does VC make a red tube skirt? I can see that being a workhorse, potentially.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-it-rains-it-pours#post-1086906 Sat, 16 Nov 2013 03:46:13 +0000 Parsley 1086906@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the color of your new moto, and it sounds good that you could wear it for work and it molds to your body.</p> <p>What are you looking for in red? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-it-rains-it-pours#post-1086886 Sat, 16 Nov 2013 03:23:24 +0000 catgirl 1086886@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No need to explain! Just saying (or probably projecting....). Enjoy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-it-rains-it-pours#post-1086882 Sat, 16 Nov 2013 03:16:57 +0000 rae 1086882@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, I hear you, Una. At least&nbsp;lately I have bought only stuff I know I can resell at the same price or higher. In the past I definitely thought I was getting a deal on lesser brands and had to eat the loss when they didn't work out.&nbsp;</p> <p>On the plus side, this year's jacket woes have all been wearability. Definite leg up from last year, when I would buy things and realize I don't like them.&nbsp;Oh, and the something red does not have to be a jacket! Don't know if I made it sound like that was the plan... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-it-rains-it-pours#post-1086877 Sat, 16 Nov 2013 03:11:37 +0000 Anonymous 1086877@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice find! Yes, get some red things now! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-it-rains-it-pours#post-1086876 Sat, 16 Nov 2013 03:09:21 +0000 catgirl 1086876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Blue moto? I really like it!</p> <p>If you don't mind some unsolicited advice though - Go slow on the jackets while you are figuring it out again - you and I tend to love so many jackets that don't fit the bill long term.</p> <p>I'll happily take your rejects! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-it-rains-it-pours#post-1086871 Sat, 16 Nov 2013 03:02:29 +0000 rae 1086871@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, that is a blue leather moto... I think I just had the idea a few days ago, and look what found me. It's a very dark turquoise.&nbsp;The pic is from the morning, and it has eased up quite a bit in fit&nbsp;after a full work day - the first time I've experienced a leather jacket molding to me... and I was just saying on another thread that I'd never had leather stretch much. Oops!&nbsp;</p> <p>So wow, I love the jacket, but I am not really feeling this outfit. I think my Tahari jacket is better for bootcuts, and I should use the moto cut for skinnies and dresses. I guess I have to learn how to style a moto now that I have embraced them. Team Slow to Adopt Trends all the way.&nbsp;</p> <p>The work wardrobe is finally starting to feel like it is falling into place. I don't have a ton of stuff anymore, almost everything gets worn frequently, and I feel I have a good variety. A good feeling! All I need is something red, since we have to wear b/w/red for most sales, and I hate hate hate my only red indoor item right now (a chunky leather belt). It will be nice to stop shopping for a while and simply luxuriate in clothes and shoes that don't hurt/stick/itch/sweat/bind/pinch/suffocate.</p> <p>In other news, it did sort-of-kind-of rain this morning - a spotty drizzle! Yay!&nbsp;</p> <p> </p>
