I've loved my Bobeau midi, which I admired so long on other YLFers. When I saw this ponte jacket at the Rack, I loved it too. Love the color and the fabric and, while it doesn't have a closure, I have the room to add a button if I so choose. But....

The lining is cheap, and it's armhole and sleeve are smaller and tighter than the arm of the jacket itself. Ponte gives, but cheap nylon lining? Not so much.

PPP --- Must remember PPP!

I was ready to cut out the lining and finish the edges, but a little gym work has made the sleeve a little more tolerable. Better watch those bicep curls, though, or I might end up looking Popeye!

Any one else struggle with selective blindness like this when selecting an item?
