The questions about the AGL's being waterproof got me thinking about patent leather and its ability to withstand water. I did a google search and according to the sources I read, patent leather is waterproof so there is a plus! The lack of a zipper, as Suz points out, is mildly annoying but not enough to make me want to return these beauties. I feel like they will have longevity in my closet. Thank you all for your kind comments regarding the boots.
Preppy Pear, I briefly thought about keeping both pairs of boots, because I do love the looks of the Pikolinos as well, but I have an older and very comfortable pair of chelsea boots that I can have re-soled and I will be quite happy with that solution.
Firecracker, the blazer does not button. The sleeves are ruched so length is not an issue. The blazer is currently sold out in a smaller size but I'm a great stalker so I will keep an eye out for an XS. I have a feeling that my shoulders will be too wide for that fit, though. Like Suz, I may be between sizes.
Chouette22 I welcome a meetup!
Susie the top is a layering top and is what I would likely wear. You make a good point of trying the jacket on with a sweater to see how that feels.
This has been extremely helpful. Thank you all for your kind comments!
