Where is my black Whistles jacket?

Rainallnight · 15/05/2024 23:24

I have one of those jersey Whistles blazers which is incredibly handy and is the only smart thing that works for me at the moment.

It is missing in action. Not in my wardrobe, not in DP’s, not on the coat hooks, not in the dirty washing basket.

I’m slightly desperate. Going away tomorrow evening for a smart work thing on Friday mornjng.

If you were my jacket, where would you be??

On a hanger in your wardrobe but with another coat on top of me which hides me.

Back of the office door. You've probably not worn it since some important meeting in November.

Good call.

Mine would be in on the back of a chair…. In my dining room or my home office. I probably wouldn’t leave it at work. Ummmm back seat of the car?

I think this must be a Whistles staple. Not sure if this is the OP's one or similar but I've got 2 similar to this in black and navy.

I'm not keen on the MN blazer over everything as I don't think blazers and dresses work. Jackets over dresses generally can be problematic but this style and material works well.

If I were the jacket I might also be on the floor, having fallen off my hanger, under the row of coats, jackets and dresses which have spilled out of the wardrobe onto a hanging rail in the box room,

stayathomegardener · 16/05/2024 00:09

Thanks, just ordered a navy one on Vinted.

Hope yours turns up @Rainallnight

MountCaramel · 16/05/2024 05:17

Check inside all bags and ypur car boot.

ThePanda · 16/05/2024 05:48

I would be on a hanger underneath another coat/jacket.

Hepzibar · 16/05/2024 06:07

Or on a hanger that's got wedged further back in wardrobe- maybe just behind something else dark, making it even more difficult to see

Hepzibar · 16/05/2024 06:08

I have this jacket in 5 colours! Absolutely love it!

Whatineed · 16/05/2024 06:11

Back of your office chair
Hung up at work
In the boot of your car
Under another coat or jacket on a hanger
Bottom of the wardrobe
In your partners wardrobe if they have one
In the bottom of the laundry basket with the dry clean only clothes
At the dry cleaners
Airing cupboard

BananaSpanner · 16/05/2024 06:14

Definitely in your wardrobe, but fallen off the hanger and now slid half way down at the back. Get it all out, you’ll find another top you forgot you owned whilst you’re at it.

GettingStuffed · 16/05/2024 08:24

I'm clearing out my clothes and found a lot of old favourites on the floor of the wardrobe

Vitriolinsanity · 16/05/2024 08:30

With mine at the dry cleaners?

Pombearprincess · 16/05/2024 08:40

My navy one is in the spare room wardrobe. Have you checked there ? Been thinking about getting it in black as it’s so useful.

choppolata · 16/05/2024 08:40

I'm still in that carrier bag where you shoved me on that hot day.

IHaveNeverLivedintheCastle · 16/05/2024 08:53

"useful" is a bit of an overworked cliché but that really is such a useful jacket.

DirtyCheeseBurger · 16/05/2024 08:57

I'd be unhelpfully balled up in a pile of dust, squashed under a questionably muddy running shoe, perhaps with a handbag thrown on top. If rescued though I could magically uncrease and be sponged off to look acceptable so no-one would know our collective shame.

Catandthemoon · 16/05/2024 09:06

In the carry-on bag I used for my last ‘work-away’ trip. Or (rather unhelpful I know) left in a hotel/office/airplane on my last ‘work-away’ trip.

Verite1 · 16/05/2024 11:24

Mine would be either under another jacket on a hanger in the wardrobe. Or in a crumpled mess at the bottom of the wardrobe amongst my shoes, having not realised it fell down there several months ago!

Verite1 · 16/05/2024 11:25

Or it may be in my work bag when I got changed at work as I was going straight out afterwards and I forgot to take it out when I got home.

lowlight · 16/05/2024 14:37

who did you lend it to?
