Luxury for less: my items from Jil Sander for Uniqlo A/W collection 2010

I have been waiting a long time to get my hands on the cashmere blend tight coat from +J Fall/Winter collection 2010.

When I saw it at the opening of the flagship store in Shinsaibashi, I didn't buy it, since I wasn't sure...Later when I came back the coat in grey and my size was sold out. Typical!

So I had to wait for a week - to Friday 15 October (it felt like forever...).

Besides the coat I also bought the wool tuxedo jacket and the wool jersey dolman 3/4 sleeve dress from the collection (I wanted a jeans and wool trousers too, but I couldn't fit any of the bottoms....) 

All three items seem to be good investment pieces - timeless style and good quality. Clothes (maybe) you can wear for many years (...if you want).
However, I must say that I wish the coat and jacket were a XS or the sleeves/armholes were smaller.

Cashmere blend tight coat:
The style is classic and since the coat is made of 50% cashmere, it feels sooo soft.


 Wool tuxedo jacket:
I am so in love with this jacket - its colour and silhouette.
You can wear the jacket in two ways. Perfect with a sweater and jeans.


Wool jersey dolman 3/4 sleeve dress:
The dress is made of 100% wool. Nice cut. Interesting details in front and back. It fits my body very well.
I like that the dress is timeless and elegant but still modern at the same time.
