One of my most coveted, most beloved, most versatile fashion item when I was a struggling University student was the classic beige trench coat from JACOB.
Sure enough, as soon as I received my first ever pay cheque, I literally ran to the store and bought it.
A well-loved Canadian fashion brand headquartered in Montreal, JACOB has been in business of making women look fabulous for over 35 years. I remember spending a lot of time browsing through the stores in Ottawa, especially during the launch of their new collection every season.
On top of constantly re-inventing themselves to keep up with the current trends, JACOB has managed to stay classic and passionate to their commitment of providing clothing, accessory and beauty products to women to celebrate their 'joie de vivre'.
I am pleased to announce that JACOB just launched their newest project: The Chic Suitcase Program. I am also very pleased to share with you my dear readers this very exciting contest with JACOB and I hope you can help me with it.
How?

Oooh I LOVE Jacob!!!! And I love those suitcases :)
Very cool!

Great post, ML!! Love love love the suitcase campaign: such a fabulous vintage chic! Btw, I'm coveting pretty much everything from JACOB's new jersey line: pretty AND comfortable!
I got a jacob trench this year that I love!
I remember visiting Canada over 10 years ago (did I just put myself in the "old" category?) and JACOB caught my eye. I LOVED everything in there! And it looks like I STILL love everything they have!

We don't have Jacob in the US and I can't really identify a similar store so now you know I am drooling over the pieces! WOW!

Great Stuff...
Man hard to choose but I love the shape of this dress!
http://www.jacob.ca/a081005b342
Well, it has been a while since my better half has shopped at Jacob. I think she'd appreciate finding the floral lace dress on her next visit. The little spaghetti straps, fitted bodice, and hem line make this dress so very versatile! And it comes in her size!

I just made some purchases at Jacob this past weekend! I have to support the Made in Canada outfit! http://www.jacob.ca/belted-whimsy-print-tunic
And I'm liking these multi use cardigans too!
http://www.jacob.ca/draped-multi-use-cardigan-2
No favorite I just simply like it all !
Very beautiful pieces!
Love the lace overlay dress! It's such a perfect mix of sweet and sassy! Darling! http://www.jacob.ca/lace-overlay-dress-black
Love the pencil skirt....classic staple to any wardrobe!
Nice styles and designs!
OMG I LOVE THIS.! wish i was tall tho lol
http://www.jacob.ca/one-shoulder-beach-maxi-5
just fabulous pieces!!!
Fabulous, like it all!!!!!!
Uhoh, I think I'd want to pack the whole store! But if I have to limit
myself to a small suitcase then I would take the colour block trench
because it may get chilly, the classic blazer just in case I have to do a
bit of business, and the comfy but sophisticated ruffled embellished
maxi. I'd also make sure to put the Jacob Lip Duo lipstick in Cashmere
Cardi into my makeup bag.

I've been walking by Jacob for the past week and have to resist going in, or I may buy the whole darn store!!! My top 3 pieces would be, in no particular order:
Ponte Drapped Blazer (reminds me of one of the pieces from Fashion Star that I LOVED!!): http://www.jacob.ca/ponte-draped-blazer-1
The sleevless bow blouse (either grey or white): http://www.jacob.ca/sleeveless-bow-blouse-9
Contrast Collar shirtdress (just seems like it could be dressed up or down so easily. And it's pretty classic :): http://www.jacob.ca/contrast-collar-shirtdress
Now, I REALLY want to go shopping!!!
Here is my pick!
