Question about Elie Tahari Leather Jacket

Rose

Hi all,
I am seriously tempted by this jacket- and am wondering if anyone can provide info on size based on experience with this brand or specifically with this jacket? I am debating small vs medium.. I wear small or mediums in tops, just depends on the brand/item, but I am a 34DD so I tend towards size medium with fitted tops, but then they often turn out to be too big. THANKS

I'm no help with the sizing, but it's a lovely jacket. Fit-wise, I have the exact same challenge. If I don't care to close a jacket, I can usually go smaller, and the fit is fine. Sometimes mediums can be too large in the shoulders. Are you planning to order it online? Nordstrom provides free shipping for orders over $200. Could you order both and see which one fits best?

I have this jacket. I'm a 30~32 DD and the medium fits very nicely. The sleeves tend to be a tad long, but I prefer them that way. They hit me between my wrist and first thumb knuckle. I'm 5'6" if that helps. Here are some posts of outfits I've worn it with:

I have the wheat color. I bought almost nothing but this jacket on the Nordstrom Anniversary sale in order to get it. The leather is so soft and it's very well made. I highly recommend it (even though we'd be jacket twins!)

A co-worker of mine got it in the grey, and it's lovely as well, if the wheat won't fit into your wardrobe. You do have to have a lot of the right things (pale pink, white, grey, purple, etc) in order to get wear out of the wheat color since it's a little bit of an odd color. It works well for me, though.
