Just stopping in with a reminder that The Women of the Gate Ficathon and Art Challenge is open for prompts until February 27th.

You can find all the information about the latest ficathon/art challenge and how to leave a prompt here.

Oh, the watch! She always wore it backwards on her wrist--that endeared Elizabeth a little to me because I do the same.

And is it goofy to say I'd love to have the long sleeve zip-ups just cuz they look warm?

Hmm, I don't recall her ever wearing that second zip-up shirt with the gray panels. Something made for her but ultimately never seen on screen?

Nope, that's not goofy at all! She always looked so cuddly in the zip-ups!

I totally second that, so not goofy at all.

I was curious about that, too. While it appears to be 'fuzzier' here, I think this may be it. It made it's one and only appearance in Rising in a very important scene--where Elizabeth fights to keep John. Otherwise, I didn't see it:

I took a look at the screen caps here at GW, and it's really close, but not quite... You can see in this shot that there's a little white logo on the left sleeve (looks like it was made by The North Face; the auction description says the shirt was production-made rather than bought off the rack and there's no little white logo on the auction shirt sleeve) and what looks like a longer zipper pull, and then in this close up, it doesn't have the diagonal seaming from the collar to the underarm. Drat!

[Eri13]

It may be that they made a production copy of it that was close, with the potential to wear it again, but she never did. For the pilot they may have had the permission to use brand products but once the show was picked up, they would have to renegotiate contracts to use trademarked apparel, so they copied that fuzzy fleece.

It looks so incredibly similar (just not as warm) it's hard to imagine they would have two of the same style of long-sleeved jacket. But she just never wore it again in scenes we saw.

*nods* That's what I think happened, too. At least, it seems like the most likely explanation.
