Re: Giuliana's TSV jacket on HSN question

Stick to your regular size if you layer- If not, maybe size down!
I think it's cool, edgy and very much my style, so I am tempted... But I haven't caved because it's not for rain or snow, and has no hood, which I use often when it's cold- And while I love the contrast colors, my makeup will show all over the lapel and dirt on the sleeves... Hate that, hard to remove it-

Might get the blue though, more forgiving... not sure- 

Have too many coats- Fun decisions!

I would opt for the Blue, although the cream option is nice, too.

 

Actually each choice is very, very nice.......The fabric looks a bit shiny because of the very, very bright studio lighting......I'm confident that it would be more muted/suede looking in person.

Re: Giuliana's TSV jacket on HSN question

they still have all the colors and sizes tonight. It may drop in price fairly soon. 

It's not for me.

I bought a jean jacket that has shape to it with sherpa on the collar and cuffs for 29.50 that I really like.

Nope not for me.  In general, I am not a fan of the clothing styles on HSN.

Re: Giuliana's TSV jacket on HSN question

When it comes to G, her sizing is all over the place, so I go by actual garment measurements.  What they showed on screen is probably recommended sizing for your measurements, but I almost always end up with too large a garment if I go by that or the siza recommendation chart linked on the item's page.  

 

For example, the first item of hers I bought was a skirt I got in an 8. While I can wear it, it's just a tad loose on me, so the next skirt I got of hers I bought a 6 and it fit perfect.  Then, I bought a pair of pants. I remember looking at the sizing recommendation on it and thought it was off, so I checked the actual garment measurements.  I had to get that item in a 12, and yes they fit and that size 6 skirt still fits, so no, I didn't gain weight.

 

Of course, with a jacket like that, it's a little more difficult since you need to know how much ease you'll need to add in.

Personally, I don't care for that style especially on someone short like me.  It would overwhelm me and make me look chunky.  Whoever the host is tonight had on a small and it was too big on her.  The sleeves were too long too.  But, when she zipped it, it looked like sizing down to an xs might make it too small to zip.  It really overwhelmed her though.
