I think if anyone wants to bid, you might want to ask for new pics just to be sure this is the same jacket and that its in the same condition described/shown

You've got a little private detective in you! I love that. Thanks for giving us the heads up onthe listing and seller.

I think it's probably to do with the color not doing well against my complexion Wondering if militaire would be the one! The search continues

It looks great on you, but if it isn't what you were hoping for you should hold out for one that you will be completely head-over-heels for!

I think Militaire would be a great choice for you. My personal opinion is that a darker color would contrast nicely with your lovely complexion. I also think black, asphalte or possible ardoise would look nice on you as well.

I always insist on the 1/2 as well . I am like you and generally it ain't so bad but some stuff just doesn't fit on short people, so annoying..

Tell me about it! I'd love to never have to hem my pants ever again!!

If you can return it for another colour, see if you can? If not, I'd say find a colour you would wear! You don't want to have a jacket sitting in your closet collecting dust...

I have the 07 in a 38 and the leather is perfection! Thick and silky, will hold up and break in beautifully. BIN is a bit high though.

I just got my moutarde last night and it is gorgeous.

I am glad. You just need to wear it and break it in.

Love the Denim on you. I have this jacket too and it is such a pretty color.

I knew the jeans were IM Now I am on the hunt for them

I love this on you. Still if you don't send it back and get a jacket that makes your heart sing

Ooooooh! Would love to see pics!!!

Yesterday I wore my SQ Cyclone yet again. This time with jeans. The color in the pics are the truest color of the jacket that I have captured so far. I liked how it looked with the Cobalt GSH Brief.

Just stunning, Meg. The pop of neon orange is delicious too

Back in the day, pants were so short and I had so much trouble. Nowadays almost all jeans are long enough, if not too long and I'm over 6'0! I don't know how the majority of people do it, does everything have to be hemmed??

But I definitely have my share of clothes never fitting right cause of my Amazon height...

OMG meg - I thought you were gonna be in a pair of briefs!!! too funny - obviously I am not a bal girl when it comes to bags.....

We need to come up with some more interesting moto photos....we have had scrubs, pajamas, Jennifer Aniston in her birthday suit....how about a bal wedding dress and moto??? I wore mine last night to a continuing ed class but it was business casual. Maybe a moto suit???? How about a moto and a swim suit??? Dare you!!!
