Please tell me this isn't worth $248

It rocks IRL, fits like a gem and no boob issues. The M at this local boutique is seriousy calling my name. It seriously rocks my world...


And it costs $248...a pretty big chunk of my paycheck.

This is the gold, but the ivory that I'm in love with is a little less shiny (but otherwise very similar) and a lot more wearable. The gold IMO is just a little too much for work.


So yes? No, Wait for a sale and then search every LA boutique on hands and knees? A cheaper alternative?


Help!

I'm going to say no, don't spend $248 on this. It's cute, but not worth that much money. I'm going to look around for a cheaper option and will post what I find!

Yes it's cute and it fits perfectly into your wardrobe but it is also $248, and it is not worth $248. Wait until it goes on sale, it probably will, most people probably aren't going to buy it at that price. It will be worth it to you in the end to ride it out.

Don't do it!  You can find something similar cheaper, especially if you are looking for ivory.  Have you checked Bluefly?

I agree.

Not worth $248 in my wardrobe, but if you can find about 7 or 8 different looks in your closet with it, I say go for it.

Cute, $150 cute not $248 cute. You could easily find a cheaper alternative.

You know I was drooling over the white one too! With the 20% coupon code you can actually get it for $200 (not much better but still helps). If I obsess over something for more than two weeks I will get it. It all depends, if you will wear it all the time then its worth it. Sorry to tempt you!!

i don't think it's worth that much.  i'm pretty sure these will be a short-lived trend, so it would be better to wait a bit for a cheaper alternative to pop up (because it totally will).

You know Lilykind, I have a feeling knockoffs of this jacket will appear on Melrose, if they haven't already.
