I ordered these has anyone tried them on are they comfy?

My friend has these and she said they are comfortable. I tried them on too but too high for me.

Anyone have this leather studded shopper? I like it but it isn't lined (although it comes with the cloth pouch) and kinda worried that it'll get beat up looking really fast. There were two in store and they were pretty scratched up, prob bc the leather is so soft. Also it's $129 in the us but it's around $175 here!

My mum has the black one and loves to wear it with her IMs and a hoody. I love it too very much, it's very versatile.

Sounds like your mum is very stylish!! I love my black jacket but I've only worn it a few times and I've noticed the inner part of the arms ( I guess where they rub against my body) have got really bobbly and scruffy looking. Has this happened to your mum's?

I don't think so, I'll ask. But it has happened to my Zara coat (wool) and some other items. It's a natural process with natural thread so just carefully remove it and keep on wearing it :)

Thanks! I'm not sure how to remove it without spoiling the natual bobbly texture of the material. Is it called boucle? Unless I just trimmed the bits that have got scruffy. Is your coat made from the same textured wool?

Yes exactly! Trim it carefully it won't damage the main thread! Good luck!

Thanks! I'll give it a go when I get home. Just been to london and that's the last time I wear good clothes on the tube! I think the sardine situation on the tube caused the friction on my jacket!

It will happen whether you are on a tube or just walking around, especially under arms, I notice. It's not a disaster you will see that it's very manageable to remove! London is cold today:)

Yes, I left London this morning and it was bright and sunny, but very cold. Love that place and hope to return soon! I'm from Manchester. Back to the jacket - I got the scissors out and it looks a lot better. It was only under the arms, the rest of the jacket was fine.

Ha! Ha! That's good that it doesn't smell. I might have to check it out again.

Yes I was the same but then on the way to Zara I kid you not I saw two girls wearing it..... And it sort of killed it for me. I'm planning to wait until they redo it or something... Still love it tho sigh sigh

Told ya. It's the same story with my jackets and it happens to them all, this sort of bouclè thread is easy to fluff!!! Good it's all sorted. Please don't tell me you came to London just for shopping:) I've been to Manchester and you have awesome boutiques and another selfridfes eh?
