That being said I almost bought the Jamie in Medium but made myself try the Small & am glad I did. <BR/><BR/>The Jamie size small is approximately 22-1/2" from shoulder seem to bottom of jacket. The belt ties higher up on the rib cage too so if you have some extra fluff in the belly region you can still tie this & it will look nice. It really is pretty & feminine, the fit, the length, the collar & the 3/4 sleeves (hit an inch above mid arm) I LOVE IT!<BR/><BR/>Also, be sure to button the two bottom buttons when you try it on. I tied the belt in the back & that gives me a more slimming look - not that this jacket needs it just my personal preference.Rachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16436352884322255671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-51101214745911893042008-07-25T08:07:00.000-04:002008-07-25T08:07:00.000-04:00Lynn: Thanks ALOT for sharing about washing the Ke...<B>Lynn</B>: Thanks ALOT for sharing about washing the Keaton pants.Rachhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16436352884322255671noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-4987256395625795492008-07-24T23:55:00.000-04:002008-07-24T23:55:00.000-04:00I went in this afternoon and they had no polka dot...I went in this afternoon and they had no polka dot popovers.

They have lots of Jamie (navy xs - l), Candace(orange) all sizes, Piper (gray 0-4, and navy, 0-6), slub cotton lawn skirt in red and mustard (0-8), lots of staples- shorts and shirts (polos, tees, shirred vneck, etc)in various colors/sizes, and capri pants and capri sandals (gold, silver). They must be consolidating because when I was there last week, they did not have the same selection.Amethysthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07486810628325271955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-54094293213515824762008-07-24T22:47:00.001-04:002008-07-24T22:47:00.001-04:00I am looking for a Seaglass Piper tank in size 8 i...I am looking for a Seaglass Piper tank in size 8 if anyone sees one.

I was able to get some sort of summer jacket for $16, the jamie jacket and the polka dot popover blouse. Apparently, I got the last one in the store because they had sent the rest back and mine happened to still be on display. Also, I was surprised at how great it looked on me. It's super cute and it was only $32. <BR/><BR/>I loved the fall stuff that they had out. The wool Fiona jacket is gorgeous and I saw them in a light Flame and some sort of pale yellowish orange. I absolutely loved the orange. It is super chic. They also have various super soft sweaters. The trouser jeans are very comfortable. I'm going to stalk these items now. Hopefully, they'll go on sale at some point when my size and desired colors are still available.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-85489937789433179752008-07-24T21:14:00.000-04:002008-07-24T21:14:00.000-04:00Thanks Ladies!
