I've actually lied to all of you - this isn't a Keep/Return thread because I'm KEEPING the jacket!!! Love the rich purple colour, love the boxy shape and low stance, love the pockets, love the weight of the fabric....LOVE IT!!!
MaryK - thank you so much for your advice on sizing. You were dead bang on to size down.
I'm also showing with my vintage handbag for Claire as she was interested in the size/scale.

Where is tea? Someone get the tea to revive Angie :)

Serious Shannon, the jacket and the bag are keepers .They are both gorgeous!
Transcona Shannon replied 11 years ago
I don't think I can show Angie this bag any more - this is twice it's caused her to faint. I don't want to be the cause of any sort of injury!!!

Shannon Im sorry but I have to get passed the skirt first! I adore that skirt, it looks so fab on you. Ok, the jacket! Wow! Another piece I am coveting (is that allowed). Color is perfect for you and the non fitted shape is such a lovely change. And the bag is stunning!! Awesome outfit.

That bag is absolutely wonderful. It is so hard to focus on the jacket when the bag is in the same post.
Debora replied 11 years ago
Wow, oh wow! Love everything about the jacket - the color and fit are perfect. How right you were to size down.
Absolutely in love with your vintage bag!

Another 10! And, your bag is a super fab addition, of course!
Jaime replied 11 years ago
Send Angie some smelling salts and keep showing us that incredibly fabulous bag! I also love the skirt. And the purple jacket! You are a style superstar.

You all are so SWEET - glad you like the jacket and the handbag. I keep pinching myself - I can't believe how lucky I was with all my NAS picks.

Gorgeous! That jacket is PERFECT for you. And I love living vicariously through everyone else who looks stunning in it, as it did NOT work for me. Hooray!

Purple. Who can return anything in such a beautiful shade? I love it and the whole ensemble. Now you need, oh, I don't know, maybe some purple Seychelles for your feet? -- so you can bookend the whole look!

I started playing dress up when I was 4 years old and haven't stopped since! My income doesn't match my tastes so it's all about figuring out how to thrift my way to a fashionable life while tossing in a few delectable items.
