I just received the wool coat with quilted leather sleeves. And yes, it does STINK! I can only describe the smell as a damp wool smell. I've removed it from my bedroom and I can still smell it. It would be awful to walk around wearing it if it smelt like that. I don't think the coat is very well made. It's really cool looking and I like it but the hem has large threads fraying off it and seems like it might shed. It's not very well finished, and the lining is cheap. I also found a large deep scratch on one of the leather epaulettes. I wonder if the ones in store will smell any better because they've had chance to hang in store for a while? I might go into store and check them out.

That's the problem I've been having too. It's too cute to return so I've been trying to air it out and will try some other things to neturalize the odor.
 
I'm going to have to try something else to try to neutralize the odor. I have to be careful since this item isn't washable or dry cleanable.

there's something called Imtek Environmental Corp and it can absorb the order with great capacity.
someone bought a bag from me and she couldn't take the moth ball odor out and she used this stuff and she told me it worked.

GL!!
 
must RED! ;) if only i didn't just purchased this other red (coz i couldn't resist spikes & studs!)

these uber distressed peekaboo pockets shorts are luv! thunder thighs forgiving, and i fit a size 2 (look past the muffin top!)! :amuse: sadly, i already own a color quite close.



Just picked up this Trf denim moto jacket -very similar style to our Mango, sans the studded collar.....

(lace tank on sale. subtle sexy!)

Wait! what red w/ spikes and studs???? did not see! oh well even if...Still can't heels....you know why....
and Size 2?????? Im size 2 so that is big on you! muffin top where????

Please let me know if you find a solution. Every time I walk past the room that the coat is hanging in I get this awful stench. I just tried it on again and now my body actually smells of the coat! It's knocking me sick. I honestly think I'm going to have to return it as I wouldn't want to inflict that smell on anyone by wearing it in public! Lol! Such a shame as it's an amazing coat.
 
Does anyone own this? Since I rarely wear/buy jeans Im not sure what size to get since someone else is buying it for me...in the shorts dept Im a size 2http://www.zara.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product/ph/en/zara-W2012/271018/825726/RIPPED%20BAGGY%20JEANS
 
I wanted to get a pair of trf trousers in a poly/cotton blend and I noticed it had 4% elastane should I get my usual trf size or should I size down?

depends on the pants - which ones are they?

idk if anyone is interested but the Washington DC Georgetown Zara had the spiked black jacket on sale for $49.99 in an XL and the downtown location had that red zebra blazer in a Medium for the same price.

tbh--the red zebra blazer looked very orange to me IRl whereas in pictures posted it looked like a tomato red. idk if i will keep it when it arrives.

aegis - it is more orange than tomato red. one of those really hard to capture colours. i think it would look awesome on you though!

I am stalking the website for these to become available. What do you ladies think?

i'll be there stalking with you!! :p

What's the quality of the shoes like? I just bought this pair:

But I didn't realize they weren't leather. I'm not sure the quality and how they will last-for $70 it seems a bit expensive for fake leather.

i'm not keen on non-leather flats but they seem cute. zara does sell leather shoes though.
