When I first joined YLF, I fell hard for a jacket that Angie had helped her client Meredith buy. Being unskilled in fashion, I didn't think about many of the issues I am much more a stickler for now. I just wanted it.

In fact, at the largest size it was too small then. I think it fits now. But is this a good jacket for me? Then I didn't think about 1. the double- breasted aspect on me and 2. the length. My XL size is about 1.5" longer than Meredith's. Oh, and 3. shoulders. They seem blocky on me (not on Meredith).

I do love the jacket (which still has its tags on). It's beautifully made. It's a bit over the top but I'd figure a way to wear it out. But if I look not quite right in it, that's bad.

Should I ebay/sell (I would consider offering it here first)? Keep? Keep and attempt alterations, which may be difficult? TIA. Better links to follow when I get off iPhone app.
