I should have said! My Kallmeyer jacket is a size 2. It's slightly large in the shoulders (but I have narrow shoulders) but fits perfectly in the body. I wouldn't size up. :)

I thought you saw my TRR obsessions list! I've been watching all those Armani jackets for the past 5 months and finally I bought 2, after reading your post this morning. This is the reason I've been your fan since WSJ days!

First time ever commenting on anything! That’s how much I adore this newsletter. Question- what is your size in the Kallemeyer jacket? I’m a pretty sure size 2 in most things but have shoulders. Thanks for all the recs and again, I love your writing style!

The Kalmeyer jacket and Vince skirt are superb!

I too have felt the slump of post Christmas dressing and have lamented all the joggers and jegging looks...I'm here for the jackets!

My MIL just gifted me a 1990s collarless Armani (full suit)! I wore it (haven’t worn a suit in at least a decade), felt like a million bucks and now I know why! So happy I took it. Great post.

Now wishing I’d kept my 90s Armani jacket!

Also curious about sizing. Any recommendations? The sizing guide on the website wasn’t super helpful. Thinking of sizing up but worried about losing the beautiful tailored look you nailed. Love the newsletter! Look forward to it every week. Thank you!

Becky! Need this jacket but am curious whether yours is the navy silk wool or the black summer suiting fabric? 🙏🏼

LOVING the La Veste skirt! Can't wait to see it styled for spring :)

Love. Love. Green pastel see-through skirt and boots, was just literally thinking about similar today but in dark amber color. Are we having a grunge moment? A little one :)

Your newsletter is so on point for my own personal style. Thank you ever so much for the fashion inspiration and smart writing. Also you brought back a memory of a brown paperbag skirt suit I wore in the nineties. Collarless, long, volume and long skirted, straight and long jacket. Loved it.

I love the cinched in waists on the Armani-ish jackets! So figure flattering. I've been seeing them styled recently with the bottom buttons undone and I'm kind of into that look?

Incredible post and you look fantastic in the La Veste tulle skirt. That outfit is perfection.
