Aida! This jacket gets another squee credit for bringing you out of the woodwork. So nice to see you! (Thinking, hmm, did she post, oh I hope so,must check, heh.)
Sleeves. Yes, thank you all for reminding me that I need to pay attention to the sleeves and thank you for your sleeve sympathy Tracey. I will take TT to the tailor tout suite (sorry all your kind words have made me silly).
Greyscale - yes! I immediately ran home to google and that is definitely the jacket and yes you must wear it and show me asap! We are jacket twins! I thought I had detected a kindred spirit.
Diane thank you for appreciating my shoe comment - I would start a thread about which shoe you would be but I am not sure everyone gets the fun in that!
Angie I can feel your warm smile all the way across the ocean and continents. Your comments always make me happy!
Thank you so much everyone (without naming names please know I read and appreciate each and every one of your comments) who offered your opinion about the jackets and I am delighted we all agree!
The Max Mara will go to consignment to offset the cost of the others, but the TT and the Topshop are staying with me (and perhaps forming a band in my closet). And #5 at least long enough to see if I actually wear it.
(And special thanks to everyone who said nice things about my hair. I am usually ok with it, but it is still a delicate subject when I am feeling blah.)
