Ordered the Hinge floral bomber

Went to Nordstrom on Saturday and saw the Hinge floral bomber on sale, They didn't have my size, but I snagged the last S in the country from another store! I didn't think I'd like the bomber trend, but the bright florals really caught my eye, and it was even cheaper than marked when we ordered it because it was at the Rack. Am excited to be trying at least ONE spring trend, even if we are expecting 2 feet of snow by tomorrow...

(It's called a baseball jacket - is there a big difference?)

I've been wondering about the different between a baseball jacket and bomber too! I wonder if it has to do with the neckline -- baseball jackets seem to have a v-type neckline, whereas most bombers have a crew-type neckline.

Can't wait to see how this one works out for you! The blue is fantastic. Maybe we will be twins--I ordered it last week

You are right! And maybe that's why this appealed to me - the V neck is more flattering to my shape. Brilliant. And how funny that you ordered it too - great minds?

I'm not generally a floral fan but I like that jacket. The blues are very pretty. Will you wear it mainly with jeans?

This is going to look great, Una. I can feel it

Bombers are being called baseball jackets at times, and it's driving me batty. But the general fit is the same so we are talking about the same thing in that respect.

Thanks, Angie! The v-neck is what I liked, although I didn't even realize it. The colors are so vibrant but still moody enough to suit my wardrobe. I hope the S fits - XS was okay but tight in the shoulders...

Susie, I was actually hoping to wear it with shorts (because we have that kind of summer weather) or over a sheath dress too (inspired by Ingunn!)...

What a steal! Such a pretty combination of colours on the jacket. It reminds me of a Monet painting. ( I love Monet)

I saw it in store but not at that price yet. I opted for the black crew neck Bellatrix bird bomber because I have a fear of florals. But it looks like it will add some chic sportiness to your style; I can see it going great with the Harley moto boots.

Denise, I love your hummingbird bomber! But I felt it might be twee on me somehow... You have more fashion moxie than me. Very few florals appeal to me, but this one did in person.

I'm curious to see what you think of it. I still have mine to consider (I was going to return, but I'm going to try it with dresses first)

SO PRETTY!! (I know that's not a word you love, but on you it will be awesomely fab despite it's prettiness!)

I only wish they still had it in my size!

Ooh, nice! I LOVE that print, would have pounced if it was a blazer. I think this will look amazing on you!

Oh wow that is pretty! Great price too. Hope it works well for you. I hear you on the endless winter. I am only buying sweaters, sweatshirts, and boots. No doubt I will feel foolish in 6 weeks. Or not.
