I have quite a few Free People tops.

Love them all. Especially love the material. Somehow the cotton blend is just so.....natural feeling.

Nice pics. Thanks for sharing @Andreatoo

I love that top jacket--especially the sleeves It's a little short for me, but I could make that work, LOL

I own quite a bit of free people--some of it is way too out there for me, but I love some of it!

I have a lot of Free People too. I have their black jacket from last year and wear it with my black jeans and boots. Even though it's not leather (which I won't buy normally), that thing is WARM!

I also like Karen Kane

I agree that some of it can be a little 'out there' but just as many pieces are what I like to call twisted classics; like the pieces shown: something different that makes them stand out but not so trendy that I cant wear it next year!

The Q, by comparison, seems so rigid in their mission to appeal to everyone that they wind up in the some boring basics lane that I, for one, just don't bother with..

There's certainly room for all of it but I just wish they, the Q, took more chances!

Free Peoole opened a store in my mall. It's glorious. I've picked up quite a few things for my girls. They even have shoes and boots

I love the black tank top, @Andreatoo

@bri20
Me too! I just love that shape, love the neckline, and that rouche/wrap detail will be so flattering!
I picked up something with the same basic shape, which isn't so easy to find by the way, from evine when they were doing the Phoenix designers in April. I wound up going back for the other color and then having my MIL make me a pattern for it! LOL
727-502 if you're interested

The jacket looks great. Too bad it's vinyl. I cannot take the lack of breathability in plastic. But the style is super.

I've had an eye on this brand and I really like it. Their clothing is a little edgy and unpredictable. The clothes seem to be well made. They're a bit on the pricey side.

Some of their styles are oversized/slouchy and others are more fitted.

I think their clothing has appeal for all ages. My teenage granddaughter likes it, and I like it, too.

I, too, do not like vinyl jackets. That being said, I'd actually wear that one. It is darling!

I can't relate to the breathability issue with the faux leather because I live in South Florida and just don't get enough opportunity to wear it! I do however have a problem with faux leather when it comes to shoes LOL
