Nope...that is just how they look at this fitting stage.

There is no actual roping in this style of jacket...just a tad of wading that settles in with a bit of wear.

Good thing that I don't take my jacket off during the day...!

Her enemy is my friend. (Link didn't work for some reason, btw, but after seeing who it was, I cut and pasted. That worked.)

I take my jacket off all the time, and regularly have my back turned on an attentive group already prone to imagination. Is this not the fabric for me? Although... I was planning to use the fresco jacket w/ other odd pants in such situations. Maybe it still would work.

Is it just me, or does the fresco look a bit ... laconic?

The plaid should be a suit, not a jacket.

I don't post photos of me wearing clothes or clothes I wear or even clothes I don't wear in interesting combinations. Rather, I provide textual suggestions to serve as mental thought inspiration and a font of commentary for the sartorially aspirationaling dresser.

Cool pics and the one piece back thing is amazing. Don't quit the day job to set up shop as a lyricist, though. Just saying.
