Short Sleeve Puffer??

Barb114 — Mon, 24 Sep 2018 20:05:06 GMT

What's the point of wearing a. Cap sleeve puffer jacket? When it's cold you need long sleeves, and when it's warm you don't need it at all. Just "fashion" for $75, I don't think so. Saw it in Kerstin and Martha, looks ridiculous.

I totally agree I do not care for it at all.

What about all the puffer vests? Sherpa vests? I see those every winter. It’s a matter of how and where you wear it.

I wondered the same thing, but then I remembered winter vests, which are basically winter coats with no sleeves. Makes no sense, but there you are.

This garment is the old fairy tale re-worked as “The Empress’s New Clothes”! Kerstin and others all aflutter over Martha’s dopey creation of a coat with short sleeves or maybe it’s actually a vest with short sleeves?

Just as unfunctional as that next item: the sleeveless open wool cashmere cardigan that looks boxy and boring and unflattering on every figure for $145

Empress Martha should stick to gardening and kitchen tools. Her clothing designs look very much like fancy versions of prison wearables. Shapeless, body coverings that look bad on everyone, but now in pastels instead of cell block orange!

Feh!

I think it is cute, and a change from a down vest, it's different.

I like the clothing Martha is doing, but as I am currently really editing what I have---reluctant to bring in new

I like it. If it would have had pockets I would have purchased it. It would be great for cooler weather dog walking with a long sleeved sweatshirt or tee under it. I don't like jackets and wear mostly vests with layering of arm warmers and sweatshirts. Coats or jackets are way to cumbersome for me.

@Pook It does have pockets:
two functional on-seam zipper hip pockets
