NAS Part 3 - YouLookFab Forum

I received some more boxes today... It's kind of crazy that they send many items individually in separate boxes, especially the three free beauty samples in their own box!

First, the amazing Burberry coat! I can't believe it came in one day. The coat is impeccably-made. The sleeves are too long, so I will take it to my tailor if I decide to keep it. I think it is a keeper, but I want to be positive at its price. I got this in a size 6.

I also received the Classiques Entier moto. It is a Petite Small, and fits very well. I'm not thrilled with the fur collar, so I took it off. It's very soft, very understated.

I really like the Eliza J ombre dress. I got a 4 Petite. It is very, very comfortable.

The Maggy London scuba dress is going back. It's also a 4 Petite. It just doesn't fit me that well on top.

Finally, I got the Cole Haan oxfords. I had no idea they would be so lightweight - wow! They are very, very comfortable. Now I just need to decide between the black and grey. I'm leaning toward the grey as I don't have any shoes that color.

Wow I love that Eliza J dress on you! Perfection! And the moto.

I ordered both those dresses! I hope the Eliza J looks as good on me. I agree with your decision on the other one...not as good. Okay if I hadn't seen the Eliza J one, but it's not as perfect.

Love you in everything except that floral dress...you are right to return that one. The Eliza J dress is fabulous on you!!

You got great items. I also love the ombré dress and the jacket on you.
The shoes look very comfy on you.
You made good choices.

The coat is absolutely stunning - but please make sure it's the right size. You're wearing it over a sleeveless dress which is not how you would wear it in Fall or Winter. Try it on over all the correct layers too.

I vote grey Cole Haans. Gorgeous.

Jaime

Love the Eliza J dress on you. Jackets look great too!

Firecracker (Sharan)

Everything looks great on you. Angie has a good point about the coat. It's beautiful on you, and even if you go up a size for layering, it looks like the proportions match your shape. To me the sleeves don't look too long, fwiw.
I vote gray oxfords, too.

Thank you for all your feedback. It is greatly appreciated. I will try on the Burberry coat again tomorrow with a fall/winter layer underneath. I'll try to get my husband to take a photo so it will be easier to see the sleeve length.

Really beautiful items. The Burberry coat is especially nice

Reneeb

I really like the

Eliza J ombre dress with that jacket. Great outfit. I vote grey oxfords.

Wow, I love that Burberry coat. And the Eliza J dress. Awesome choices.

The coat is beautiful. How does it fit you size-wise? Remember to try it on with whatever you'll most likely wear it with in the correct season. The reason I say this, and I hope you don't mind, is that it looks like it fits you perfectly now and you might not be wearing anything heavy underneath. I did this once with a coat - fit perfectly when I tried it on in summer and then cooler weather came and uh oh, it was snug with what I would typically wear underneath it.

The dress you are keeping is gorgeous, and I vote gray shoes too!

That Eliza dress is one of those magic dresses, I think...

catgirl

I think the coat is small - it is an amazing fit but I can't imagine sitting in a car or moving around much in winter with layers. And it is shown looser on the model. I can only imagine how gorgeous it is in person. I have to size up one or sometimes two sizes for Burberry to fit (an 8, as Diana can attest from trying on with me at the Boston store) and I am usually a 4 or 6 on top depending on brand.

What a great collection of items. I usually go up one size on outerwear, because I sport blazers often and need the extra room to layer. I vote grey oxfords, the detailing shows up more with them. Also they will work well with outfits with lighter colors.

Really loved the Eliza J Ombre dress- you look great

You look fab in everything but the floral dress isn't young enough looking for you.. The Burberry oozes quality. Get a size big enough to be comfortable.

Aquamarine

Nice haul! Agree the coat may be a bit small, but it looks impeccable just the same. That Eliza J dress has me wishing I tried it, but I fear the length, if accurate in the online description, would be too short on me, but it looks perfect on you.

Colette

If this helps, I tried the Burberry coat on in store, it's gorgeous and I haven't stopped thinking about it. For reference, I'm 5' 4 1/4" tall, pear shape, and generally wear a 4-6 on top and a 6-8 bottom. I don't wear petites. The SA put me in the 6 and I believe it was the correct size. I insisted on trying the 8 and was swimming in it.

Also, I chose the CE leather jacket in small.

I liked the shoes on you so much that I went to look at them in the store. They are gorgeous, but I finally decided they would not be wide enough for me.

Beth

Wow, you picked some gorgeous pieces! The Burberry is perfection on you; it looks as though the cut was custom made. Even in a size up (jf you end up needing it) the proportions will still be right.

So glad you bought the Classiques moto! The petite is a great fit and isn't it refined and versatile? I tried the petite but the sleeves were too short so I ended up keeping the regular small.

Totally agree with the dresses. The Maggy London is pretty, but the Eliza J is the clear winner.

My vote is for the gray oxfords:)
