    OH My, Sveta! this is gorgeous. drooling ......right now it shows gone in only size 12. 
  • Raisin replied 11 years ago
    I've seen some very similar ones around, if you want a dupe.

    Only $40 at Dynamite\http://www.dynamite.ca/Product.....8;pfId=157

    A little pricier from Club Monaco, and I think the Dynamite jacket looks more similar to the BR one.  Also, this one might be a lighter blush.

    Kalli - thanks!
    Mona, yes, 12 is my size :-(
    Raisin - thanks for Dynamite tip. I don't really shop there but this one looks nice. I will check it out!

    Gorgeous! Lovely colour and I can imagine it being worn in so many ways!!
  • Thistle replied 11 years ago
    They still have size 12 on the US site. Its early yet, so maybe the Canada one will get more in.  Also, check stores by you.  I have found items in stores when it was sold out on line.

    Sveta, I don't go to Dynamite too much either, but I just got a nice olive blazer with faux leather sleeves there, and the quality was not bad.  They have quite a few blazers there right now, and I must say they look good.  Something to hold you over, anyway.

    Oh, gorgeous, Sveta! I cross my fingers for you and hope you find it.
  • replied 11 years ago
    Good luck, Sveta!  PM me if you'd like me to buy one and ship it to you.
  • ruthe replied 11 years ago
    I do hope you find what you have your heart set on. I've wondered if I could wear that color. The only way to know is just try, huh? It is a lovely jacket.
  • Sveta replied 11 years ago
    Rae, I saw that two toned blazer on their site and though t looked nice...I think I need to get myself to the mall and give Dynamite a try. It just looks so juvenile when  I pass it that I was never tempted to pop in.
    Thistle. our single BR store is very small, ususally it get like 1/4 of online selection. I will check it out anyway.
    Ali, you are so sweet, thank you. I need to try it first and be able to return if it does not work out because I am not sure how this color will play for me. Thanks for the offer!
    ruthe, this is right - you can only try and hope!:-)
    Ingunn - thanks!

    So beautiful! 

    I was after it as a suit......until I saw the pants :(
  • Sveta replied 11 years ago
    I know, Angie - I gasped out loud in despair when I saw the pants too - just ridiculous! When oh when they start making pants in a NORMAL length!!!
  • Angie replied 11 years ago
    *sigh*

    Sveta, DON"T get me started on too short lengths. 

    Then I thought about hemming the pants into long shorts! But that makes the suit so much less wearable to always-cold-me-who-lives-in-Seattle. 

    :( :( :( :(
  • Sveta replied 11 years ago
    I agree and I had the same thought... Some pants there look downright ridiculous at this length because they are not tapered even...GRRRRR...why cannot retailers see that!!!! Are they blind?
  • deb replied 11 years ago
    I say get the suit and shorten the pants to the knee. Perfect for summer.
  • replied 11 years ago
    It's a beautiful jacket Sveta, I do hope it either comes back in stock for you or that you find one very similar. I have pinned it for inpiration btw as I have been thinking of new blazers on my thread.
  • pil replied 11 years ago
    That is beautiful, Sveta. Such a soft, lovely color. Good luck finding it!
  • rae replied 11 years ago
    Mourning with you, and wishing for a resurrection. :T

    As for the pants, it is so weird after being here to go to work and have lots of people come in and ask to see the cropped pants! I guess people are buying them... I'm just glad I'm short, because this has meant I need less hemming. o_0

    I am loving pieces in blush -- such a fabulous complement to my favorite color this season mint. Sorry you could not snatch it up, but I know just the right jacket in blush is waiting for you ;-)
