Thoughts on this jacket?

34 replies

It's from Zara and was a bargain at £29. I haven't worn anything like this in years but thought it would look good for Christmas day ( we are going out to a nice restaurant). I would wear it with what I wearing in the picture, navy trousers and jumper. I have dark shoulder length hair and I'm 54.

Any opinions?

It's looks lovely perfect for Christmas. Fab legs and figure. At 54 Wow!

EmmaEmerald · 16/09/2023 12:54

Love it! Don't wait till Xmas!

continentallentil · 16/09/2023 12:55

Ooh yes that looks fabulous!

CinnamonJellyBeans · 16/09/2023 12:59

It looks great with your long legs and the elegant trousers. I'd swap the shoes for same style but no strap.

MotherOfGodWeeFella · 16/09/2023 13:07

I wouldn't save it for Christmas - get wearing it!

WhoStoleYourHighHorse · 16/09/2023 13:09

Wow, you wear that just beautifully! Excellent choice.

Justkoko · 16/09/2023 13:16

Like it! Don't be saving til Christmas, get wearing it! I'm looking for something similar in navy, not to long or oversized, nipped in at the waist.

cryinglaughing · 16/09/2023 13:18

Great figure, looks good on you 😊

Calypsocuckoo · 16/09/2023 13:22

It looks great, I think you could style in in a few different ways, with black jeans, a pencil skirt, with a more edgy casual look, or very smart with a black fitted dress. You look lovely, I wish I had legs like yours !

VoldemortsKitten · 16/09/2023 13:40

Oh yeah this is a classic I love it. Would wear it with jet black jeans and black roll neck. Looks great on you op.

mondaytosunday · 16/09/2023 13:56

Hey throwback to the 80s!! It my thing but if you like it go for it. I do like the colour.

Saturdaygirl01 · 16/09/2023 13:59

Lovely. Wear it now!

RegisteredAssistanceWolf · 16/09/2023 14:23

Gorgeous. You've got a cracking figure OP.

AlpaNat · 16/09/2023 14:24

Did they have other colors?

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 16/09/2023 14:24

It looks lovely, but very 'worky' like that. Maybe try it with wide legged black jeans, either cropped or full length? And smart trainers, rather than heels?

I've just bought the Zara one in green. Mango are doing lovely similar jackets in bright red, and in black too.

Yellowskyview · 16/09/2023 15:49
