New leather/fur jacket...opinions please

First off I'm just looking for general opinions on style/if it looks ok to wear out and about! And not how it looks on my body.

Basically I've put on weight/feel self conscious about it and have a first date with a male acquaintance this weekend. Really excited and feel quite sexy in this but...

Is it actually a monstrosity? Even a few positive comments would encourage me...an absolute no and I'll think again...

Have to admit the fair fur look did give me pause. Not sure if it's so much a look anymore because of the environment/animal issues

I’m afraid for me it’s a no op, it’s not very flattering, and I don’t like the colour, I’m sorry. It’s quite a statement though so I’m quite a more understated dresser so may not be your target audience,

Thanks for being honest @Janieforever even if it's not what I want to hear!

I do like vintage/retro dressing. It's quite a statement even for me 🙂

I got this in tk maxx. Generally I can find outfits that flatter easily enough but jackets seem impossible for now sadly.

I struggle with jackets too to be honest. It’s not bad though, I just think there is better,but again might not be my taste. Someone else might be along who loves it.

I don’t like the fit or the fur. Love the colour though.

I don’t like the fit, it’s a bit small (doesn’t close properly at the bottom). I like the colour.

KeiraKnightley2 · 09/11/2023 13:46

@PastorCarrBonarra It does close over but yes I see what you mean.

Oh dear, feel a shopping trip coming on...

Ps. Ignore mirror in need of cleaning!
