My favorite style and color! You look lovely.
Thank you! It was fun to have an occasion to dress up (it has been quite a while). Also super proud of my H and his fellow artisans, as the occasion was the unveiling of this years-long labor of love: https://pollaro.com/moonlight/
Now…anyone have a spare $10mil to buy it?
That dress will be perfect with western-ish booties! Love it.
The dress is fabulous, @DeeCee36! Looks great on you!
Lovely dress. Interesting project too.
One of my all time fav colors!
Cute boots, l’artiste is a great brand. Very comfortable also, I have had a couple pairs of their sandals. One my kid stole and wore until they fell apart which is high praise!
Thanks for the advice on the shoes. And adding a jacket.
I think a cropped leather jacket would be better but I don’t have one of those. I have blue and a black denim jacket, will try both
I think it’s time you buy a leather jacket! Some cute ones at WHBM!
Of course I had to look. They have a couple of cute faux leather jackets. Get the look without the investment
Or
Any opinions?
I like the top one. That said, I looked at the price and not for nothing, but… I bought a genuine leather moto jacket from quince last year for just a tiny bit more (I think I paid $170). You might look there.
I was there and bought some flared coated jeans and a faux leather peplum tank. I did try on one of the shorter black jackets, but I already own one. It was so cute. Let me take a better look and see which one it was.
Edit: I tried on the first one and it was adorable. I think my thoughts were it’s not an moto (which I own) and with the buttons a bit more dressy and I might be able to wear it as part of my outfit and not take it off. Then I thought, I’ve already purchased enough and I already own a leather moto.
I love the peplum in the back of the 2nd one. My deciding factor would be, do I wear more gold or silver to match the jacket.
Edit #2. I went back to look at the first jacket and they have it in a wine! I bought it and I blame YOU, @deb922, for putting up that link. So you better buy one of the black ones. I love blazers, moto jackets and already have enough, way more than enough. I was not going to buy anymore this winter. Thanks alot!!!
Haha, I’ll own up to enabling!
I looked through my emails and found a coupon so I ordered the first jacket. I ordered my true size so I’m hoping it doesn’t run too big.
I really like it in the wine color but I don’t have any black jackets that fit so the black will be more versatile for me.
The black is beautiful with the buttons. The 8 is 21” long, so yours will probably be a little shorter. We will have to compare when we get them!
My jacket came in today, it’s buttery soft. Feels and looks like real leather. I’m an 8 and just feels a bit too snug under the arms and shoulders, and I just had a tank on. I’m going to take it to one of the stores and have them order a 10. Not sure if it seem to big in the torso. I’ll just have to see.
I keep thinking I like to wear my blazers as my outfit and I wonder if I’ll get too hot inside and want to take it off. So then that defeats the purpose. It’s not Terri key heavy though. I’ll just have to think about it. The color is gorgeous though
I got mine yesterday. I got the 6 and felt that it was true to size. I was able to wear a long sleeve shirt underneath but it wasn’t that roomy.
I’m going to keep it, I liked the length, not too short or long. I bought the regular 6, not the petite and I think it’s perfect.
Ordered a mock neck turtleneck alap and sent that right back. It was tight and itchy!
Thanks for your help, it was nice to hear that someone had tried on the jacket and liked it at the store. Our nearest store is 100 miles away.
I like to shop online but I also hate shopping online. Because you never know how it’s going to look or fit. I do love the convenience
I’m so glad it worked out for you! It’s really cute and soft isn’t it? I thought you’d be happy with the length, as that’s shorter than I normally purchase with my longer torso. Did you order that ribbed mock neck they show with it? If it is I’m glad to know it’s itchy, I was going to order it since it matched the color.
Yes the mock neck they showed with the jacket. Maybe if I sized up.
I went to check the material to see if any wool, which there wasn’t. I’m surprised it’s itchy. I bought a gorgeous sweater 2 years ago with 5% wool because it matched my coated jeans perfectly. Wore it just once. It was driving me crazy.
It could have been that it felt tight and I’m not that comfortable with tight around my neck. More form fitting than tight
