More new stuff needing YLF approval

karlie

Knee high brown boots. I know fit can be an issue-how are these? And is the round toe on trend?

ATL jacket-is the cut okay for me? I'm still learning to dress my new body type and look past certain other things. Does it work or can I do better?

Boyfriend blazer-I don't know if it doesn't fit/flatter right or if my eyes need to adjust to the slouchy look. Thoughts?

If something doesn't work for my body, don't be afraid to speak up. I'd much rather return and get things that do work. Also, my budget may only allow me to keep one of the jackets. Is one a clear winner over the other? Thanks!!

The brown boots are lovely. The fit looks fine from the side but from the front they look a bit strange around the ankle perhaps it's just me, hopefully someone else will chime in.

Both jackets look great, please don't make me choose which i prefer!

I think the fit of th BF blazer looks fine it appears to fit on the shoulder which i think slouchy looks are supposed to x

Thanks Loulou! I had the same concern as you about the boots. Hopefully I'll get some other opinions on them. And I don't want to have to choose between the jackets either. Maybe all the YLF gals can email my hubby and convince him that it's best for me to keep both!

I think the boots are great! I didn't notice the weirdness around the ankle till I read Loulou's comment and now it's obvious to me. LOL. I have some boots that do that and it annoys me but not enough to not wear them. *shrug* I have such a hard time finding boots that fit in other ways that I figure it's forgivable. Maybe I shouldn't? I don't know.

I think the ATL jacket looks excellent. I love that whole outfit and would definitely wear it myself. I won't offer my opinion on the BF blazer because I'm not a huge fan of that look. That said, you pull it off better than the majority of people I've seen. =o)

KILLER boots. My word. Love them! Don’t mind the scrunching one little bit.

Both jackets are GREAT. You are getting it, Karlie. You clever little sausage :0)

Karlie i'm using my own special shopping logic here!!! explain to hubby that you must keep both jackets as you may never again find 2 jackets which fit so well and when things fit that well you must have them!!!!

This is the same logic which when sales are on says if it's half the price i can have twice as much! doesn't work on my other half either but i can live in hope

Thanks all! That's great news about the boots. I would have been really disappointed if they were a return since I got them for a steal! I can't decide between the jackets either. Maybe if I put of the decision long enough, my hubby will forget I have them both.
