I think I definitely have outfits that would work for bus-cas attire. Casual wear might be a little trickier - I might have to branch out and purchase some new pieces, but I'm also also very low on summer/warm weather clothes in general (clam diggers, casual skirts), so I may just have to make room for it in my budget. I really appreciate the great ideas. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-styling-help-with-denim-biker-jacket#post-52171 Thu, 26 Feb 2009 03:41:16 +0000 shana 52171@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kari, </p> <p>The jacket looks awesome on you! I love the business casual look. I have nothing to add except that I think there was some discussion about wearing denim with denim if you were wearing a dark denim jacket like this with white denim clamdiggers for example. I believe that got the O.K. so that's another possibility - white denim skirt or clamdiggers... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-styling-help-with-denim-biker-jacket#post-52037 Wed, 25 Feb 2009 10:48:33 +0000 Inge 52037@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Kari</p> <p>I haven't anything new to add really, but I just wanted to say you look fantastic in your new jacket AND I loved the business casual outfit (and the scarf, love it!)!</p> <p>Since you say it's still cold in your neck of the woods: how about pairing it with a (non-denim) pencil or A-line skirt and knee-high boots? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-styling-help-with-denim-biker-jacket#post-52019 Wed, 25 Feb 2009 05:17:19 +0000 Anonymous 52019@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The jacket looks great on you, as it does on Nicole. What a nice denim jacket for curvy gals. I like it best when it is worn with something other than denim on the bottom. I think everyone seems in agreement on that one. I love the way you have accessorized it in the pictures. I bet as spring rolls around you will be wearing it all the time with dresses, clam diggers, pants or shorts. It looks really nice with the scarf in the picture. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-styling-help-with-denim-biker-jacket#post-52016 Wed, 25 Feb 2009 05:03:00 +0000 Kari 52016@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm, I don't really have any floral dresses, but I have a few fun spring dresses that I'll have to try it with. May have to wait a few months, though - it's very cold and wet here right now.</p> <p>Thank you for the additional ideas! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-styling-help-with-denim-biker-jacket#post-51901 Tue, 24 Feb 2009 14:42:17 +0000 Lee Hovey 51901@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes I think it looks awesome on you! I really liked it with the dress pants and scarf, though I agree with you it probably looks better unzipped.</p> <p>I especially like the idea of the jacket with a pretty spring/summer dress. Something maybe a little more feminine to offset the dark structure of the jacket. Like a floral print maybe, or a floaty material. I was just noticing Old Navy has alot of nice spring dresses, and there is a 30% off coupon floating around. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-styling-help-with-denim-biker-jacket#post-51900 Tue, 24 Feb 2009 14:09:52 +0000 Kari 51900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tanya, thanks a million for all of the suggestions. I'm mentally weeding through my closet to figure out what I have that fits with your ideas. I'll have to keep playing with it.</p> <p>(And yay, I'm glad the jacket works on my figure. Thank you!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-styling-help-with-denim-biker-jacket#post-51869 Tue, 24 Feb 2009 05:29:54 +0000 Tanya 51869@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Kari, that jacket looks amazing on you. I wouldn't wear it with jeans, not even skinnies. But it looks great with pants.</p> <p>I would also wear it with: dresses, any skirt that is not denim, any type of non-denim pant - especially micro checks.</p> <p>For casual wear - I'd try it with micro check pants, graphic tee, pearls and Converse.<br /> In the evening I would toss over a girly dress and cute shoes. For smart casual it would look great with a printed skirt and knitted top. Or corduroy skirt and turtleneck, with boots, if it's colder. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/looking-for-styling-help-with-denim-biker-jacket#post-51866 Tue, 24 Feb 2009 05:24:14 +0000 Kari 51866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I saw how cute Nicole's denim jacket from Armani Exchange looked on her (and the great discounted price) and when I tried it on and saw how awesome it looked and felt, I snapped one up for myself. The cut is SO curve-friendly!<br /> The problem is, I'm a little bit lost about how to style it. I like Angie's suggestion to wear biker jackets with jeans and ruffly/girly tops - but I don't think that works when the jacket itself is denim. I'm so unsure when I try out a look that is more "trendy" than my usual look, and I would love some advice on how to make this jacket part of a fab outfit.</p> <p>Here are two attempts to style it:<br /> Casual: (scroll down a bit for the pictures WITH the jacket)<br /> <a href="http://inkariswardrobe.blogspot.com/2009/02/day-with-friends.html" rel="nofollow">http://inkariswardrobe.blogspo.....iends.html</a><br /> Again, wasn't sure about denim over denim, but I wanted to try the jacket with skinny pants/boots and these are the only ones I own.<br /> I wasn't sure whether it worked or not, but the day after I wore it, my boyfriend mentioned out of the blue that he had really liked the look - "especially hot".</p> <p>Business casual:<br /> <a href="http://inkariswardrobe.blogspot.com/2009/02/monday-that-jacket-again.html" rel="nofollow">http://inkariswardrobe.blogspo.....again.html</a><br /> Paired it with a button-down blouse and scarf over trousers.</p> <p>Do either of these looks work? What else should I try? </p>
