Good plan seven!

I feel the same about the size I got. I start a new job next week at the bottom of a very steep hill and the weight is just going to fall off I tell you, fall off Grin

Just ordered a size 10 from John Lewis website. £152.00. There was two left. It's worth checking, as when I looked yesterday it said out of stock.

People that have posted a picture wearing theirs, they look lovely! I hope mine is a good fit.

I'm happy to let you know if it doesn't fit and anyone wants to buy a size 10 from me. x

Crazy8 · 15/01/2018 02:01

John Lewis seems to have more than 10 size 12s in stock. No more size 10s. I'm still waiting for my delivery of a size 10 from All Saints.

PetiteMarseillaise · 15/01/2018 16:00

I've returned my size 12 to John Lewis - the sleeves were a tad too long for me and I tried on a size 10 (new season £££££ Shock) which the sales assistant was trying to convince me was a better fit, as the jacket will stretch she claimed.

But the 10 was very tight across the shoulders and I felt it didn't fit at all. But I can't chance on it stretching. The 12 was a much better fit to begin with, but then I'd be apprehensive about it stretching and then be too big.

Sorry to have missed out on a bargain, but my bank balance will be grateful!

StripyApple · 15/01/2018 18:51

I’m very proud that I’ve resisted and just returned my 12 to John Lewis. Dh said I reminded him of David Brent..... it did not suit me at all

Susimoo · 16/01/2018 08:08

Mine arrived yesterday and I'm delighted with it. Fits beautifully at the waist and very snug at the bust. I won't wear it fully zipped up anyway as I'd resemble a zeppelin 😝

It will be for warmer weather only, with no thick layers underneath. I have an older, heavier bikers jacket for that. So over all very pleased.

It's currently hanging up to smooth out the creases from its shipping and delivery. It sure didn't resemble a luxurious purchases when in arrived from John Lewis.

How was everyone else's presented? Here's mine. Squished in to a wee plastic bag. 😱

Mine arrived beautifully packaged in a box. I ordered from All Saints though, not John Lewis.

PNGirl · 16/01/2018 09:25

I've had one from JL and it was in a plastic bag, and one from All Saints in store which was packaged beautifully. Guess JL don't have the branded packaging!

BusterTheBulldog · 16/01/2018 09:25

Glad you are pleased susimoo it’s a fab jacket! 🧡mine!

Mine was also from JL but came flat out in big bag so no creasing.

trixymalixy · 16/01/2018 11:56

Mine has just arrived in a lovely box from selfridges. No creases.

It's a bit neat across the bust when done up, but I'm wearing a jumper and it should stretch. I'm delighted with it!

I've been looking for something special to spend my 40th money from my friends on for nearly 18 months now and nothing has grabbed me so they'll be pleased I've finally found something I like!! Happy belated 40th to me!!!

PetiteMarseillaise · 16/01/2018 11:59

My JL one came in plastic bag with tissue paper inside, folded up and delivered in a big cardboard box. All the zip pulls were wrapped in tissue paper.

Susimoo · 16/01/2018 12:20

Very jealous of all these boxes 😁 but at least all other JL purchasers got their jackets the same way as mine. I wasn't singled out 😜

I'm glad everyone is enjoying their sale purchase. 💐🍸

Susimoo · 16/01/2018 12:21

@BusterTheBulldog lucky you!! Wish mine had come like that. 😊

Susimoo · 16/01/2018 12:22

@trixymalixy Happy Belated Birthday. What a fabulous gift!

BusterTheBulldog · 16/01/2018 12:28

Mine did come in a box too, should have said that! But flat within a big bag inside and then with tissue over all hardware.

Maybe tweet then it drop then an email susimoo - not great service!

thedayismine · 16/01/2018 13:02

Yay ! More delighted Bales owners - Buster and Trixy !

I can't leave this thread alone - feel like I am part of a special MN Bales gang!
Jealous of the beautiful packaging mine was also folded into a clear plastic bag from JL
But I did open a beautiful Hush parcel earlier so can't complain
Smile

WhyteKnyght · 16/01/2018 13:55

I'm agonising over whether to keep mine or not. Both the 10 and the 12 have arrived. I think the 10 is the better fit, especially if it stretches, although the 12 is better over the bust. The sleeves are too long in either size so I'd have to fold them back anyway. I do like the jacket a lot, but I'm worried that I might be a bit too short and curvy for it really. Don't want to look like I'm having a mid-life crisis. Hmm

skippy67 · 16/01/2018 14:32

We need a photo...

DonnaHaywood · 16/01/2018 17:00

Thank you for this thread! I lost patience trying to catch my size in stock so bought it (brand new, tagged) on eBay for slightly over the sale price - but so worth it! The 12 fits me perfectly, and the leather is sooooo soft - I think it’s the nicest jacket I’ve bought. Very happy Smile

Clickncollect · 17/01/2018 08:52

I love how this thread is still going strong!!

SadShock in stock in all sizes but back up to full price. I feel cheated!!! Wish I’d kept the 12 now and I could have exchanged it Sad

BusterTheBulldog · 17/01/2018 09:45

Wow, that’s crazy! It’s not on JL at all now, wonder if it will come back?

WhyteKnyght · 17/01/2018 09:58

Well, I modelled it for DH to ask his opinion and he was pretty much following me around with his tongue hanging out, so looks like I'm keeping it. Hmm Grin

onemorecornetto I'm just about to post my 12 back to JL. Keep an eye on their website over the next few days!

Pupsiecola · 17/01/2018 10:27

I bought a Conroy in Oxblood in November for £50 off. My first biker jacket. It is stunningly beautiful. I absolutely love it and the colour is perfect for me (don't tend to wear black). The leather is so soft and supple.

Clickncollect · 17/01/2018 17:02

I love the look of the Conroy in oxblood @Pupsiecola - I have my eye on that for a couple of years time once I've had the Bales for a while.
