Check out ASOS.com while you're building your wish lists. They have a lot of leather jackets, including MuuBaa, which is a nice slim and tailored look even in their motos, if you are talking about an indoor layer. (you might already know about Asos and MuuBaa from your black jacket successes!) Have fun, and PPP! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/young-grasshopper-is-slowly-learning#post-1427750 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 22:10:46 +0000 Dimity 1427750@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Patient, picky and practical - I like that!

I'll be waiting there with you for the cognac leather jacket - it is on &nbsp;my long term list, too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/young-grasshopper-is-slowly-learning#post-1427450 Mon, 19 Jan 2015 13:40:38 +0000 Jaime 1427450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Excellent attitude Frannie!

As my style has evolved and I am learning capsule dressing - I have found a hole I could fill. &nbsp;I cognac&nbsp;leather jacket. This is where I am finally learning</p> <p>1. I bought two leather jackets already this year in black - love them and need to keep wearing them. (I wear them as indoor toppers - who knew how much I would love this - thanks YLF for opening my eyes to this)</p> <p>2. Though we have a great deal of winter left - I just don't feel like this is the time to buy as wear could be limited</p> <p>3. Just because I can buy it doesn't mean I &nbsp;should buy it</p> <p>4. Lastly I have added it to a future shopping list and will pick one up hopefully at the NAS later this year - to be worn all of next season.</p> <p>So yes a hole I could fill and I know how it would fit in my capsules thanks to Angie's ensembles, but a hole that doesn't need to be filled right now this moment.</p>
