Joan Rivers boucle jacket...

Susan Louise — Tue, 29 Sep 2020 18:46:32 GMT

The item # is A386303

I just splurged on the tawny port - size medium.

I started off just putting in my wishlist until Jayne Brown said there was only 250 left in that color. The other motivational factor is that today is the only day it will be at the featured price...

SOLD!

Pretty! One of the few items in the JR line lately that looks like something she would have worn. Nice choice!

Sounds like Jayne did her job. Enjoy your jacket!

It's gorgeous, and very versatile.

Cute jacket but beyond what I would want to pay for it. There still seem to be plenty available so Jayne did do her job!! Enjoy!

That port is a great classic color for a fall and winter jacket. And such an easy way to dress up basic tops and bottoms.

@kaydee50 Thanks. I really did think about waiting on getting it because of the price still being rather steep at the featured price. However, when there is only 250 over all sizes in the color I wanted, that really isn't that many left overall.

Sometimes, if it's something I really want, I would rather get it without regrets later. Some items never comeback or get restocked.

Who knows, over the next 30 days the price can drop too and I might be able to get a price adjustment...that happens fairly often too.

I also get many pieces at clearance or 'as is' prices, so it makes a splurge like this ok for me

@Susan Louise I bought a Joan Rivers boucle jacket from QVC a few years ago. After wearing it to work only a couple times, it got matted where I leaned against my desk and where my shoulder handbag was against the jacket. I threw it out because I couldn't wear it again looking like that.

Hopefully, the fabric has been improved since then.

@Desert Lily Thanks for the HU. I have bought several boucle garments throughout my life and it is a fabric that does tend to matt/wear out sooner than others.

It is not a jacket I would wear often...mainly for special occasions, out to dinner, etc...not on a regular basis or for work. I'm retired.

If I feel this JR jacket's quality isn't good, I certainly will return it. Glad I purchased it during the extended return policy period. I'm not overly concerned. I just love the look/style

@Susan Louise Thanks for the heads up. I have several of her boucle jackets. I love them.

I just ordered the one that says dark ocean.

@BirkiLady I agree with all of you about the jacket.

I look at some of what's offered now and I don't see anything even resembling what she'd have put out when she was alive.

I miss her so much. I miss her sense of humor and the way she made her appearances so much fun as we were spending money on her items.

Shopping (even if it is on TV) should be fun. I mean after all most of us don't have to have the things we buy. We buy them because we like them. She made it all fun.

I saw the presentation and really liked it too! Enjoy

If I were still working I would have bought this jacket. I love it. Enjoy.

I had a similar JR jacket in light blue years ago. I felt great wearing it.

I have too many dress clothes as it is but if they had it in pink and black I would have bought it just to have it.

@Nancy Drew Pink & black in the same jacket? There is a black option.

Nice choice!

This classic, yet updated jacket seems to look fabulous on every body.

Enjoy!

And, you can wash it.

That is a bonus. It looks like real boiled wool, which has to be dry cleaned.

I love it. A modern take on a Chanel jacket.
