It would be mostly for casual wear, and for that&nbsp;I don't usually match my coat to what I'm wearing - I just grab and go. That said, I will probably wear it with jeans/solid color skirts, certainly not with my plaid slacks (I just popped it on today over what I was wearing to post this K/R).</p> <p>I really like the colors and the uniqueness of the coat, but you've all given me a lot to think about. I will sleep on it for another night or two!</p> <p>Then again, oh I could style it with my white jeans and a cute pair of boots - hey wait a sec - it even matches Frankenboot!</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-having-second-thoughts-kr-jacket#post-1085665 Fri, 15 Nov 2013 01:20:37 +0000 Amy 1085665@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it a lot on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-having-second-thoughts-kr-jacket#post-1085650 Fri, 15 Nov 2013 00:55:57 +0000 Suz 1085650@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't see a problem with the white, but if you do, it's hard to unsee it. So...</p> <p>I also tend to agree with Unfrumped that it B/W are probably not your very best colours especially in a blurred pattern. You do higher contrast surprisingly well when it is crisp. I think you and I might be similar that way.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-having-second-thoughts-kr-jacket#post-1085635 Fri, 15 Nov 2013 00:42:50 +0000 Angie 1085635@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the ombre effect. It's really&nbsp;flattering to my eye, and unique.&nbsp;It's an incredible casual&nbsp;jacket that is an 11 out of 10 on you.&nbsp;Sleep on it for another night.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-having-second-thoughts-kr-jacket#post-1085624 Fri, 15 Nov 2013 00:32:33 +0000 Karie 1085624@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, it doesn't make me wince or feel weird, it's just making me second guess about if it looks good or not.&nbsp;I wonder if the white is in this location on all the jackets or just this one?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-having-second-thoughts-kr-jacket#post-1085614 Fri, 15 Nov 2013 00:24:59 +0000 karymk 1085614@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's such a cool piece, but I totally see what you are talking about. &nbsp;White advances, black recedes. This white swoosh&nbsp;emphasizes the midsection and if you feel weird about it you always will. &nbsp;</p> <p>Having the tummy insecurity too, I'd avoid a stripe right across my thick waist! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-having-second-thoughts-kr-jacket#post-1085605 Fri, 15 Nov 2013 00:18:11 +0000 Beth 1085605@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I didn't notice it either, and I think you look great! Carter's advice is wise, though. If it's something that makes you wince every time you pull it out of the closet, then pass. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-having-second-thoughts-kr-jacket#post-1085598 Fri, 15 Nov 2013 00:06:55 +0000 Anonymous 1085598@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think it looks bad, but if it is something that would bother you, return and find something you love unreservedly! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-having-second-thoughts-kr-jacket#post-1085591 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 23:59:48 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1085591@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the jacket looks lovely in you Karie and I don't see any mid section issues at all. But you need to love it on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-having-second-thoughts-kr-jacket#post-1085590 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 23:59:33 +0000 missvee 1085590@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Carter. I don't notice it at all but you do, and that's what counts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-having-second-thoughts-kr-jacket#post-1085562 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 23:31:32 +0000 carter 1085562@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, my experience is that once I see something that bugs me about an item, it will bug me every. single. time. Decided to return a gorgeous gray boucle moto today because the bottom of the inside flap didn't line up with the outside flap. I know it will drive me crazy every time I wear it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-having-second-thoughts-kr-jacket#post-1085561 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 23:30:42 +0000 unfrumped 1085561@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi--boy do I understand jacket second-guessing.<br />I'm not totally bothered by the white design--but I can see how things like that can become an annoying focus.</p> <p>Instead, I'm wondering about the color(s)&nbsp; &nbsp;for your own coloring--this jacket seems made for high-contrast coloring. Wouldn't you look more smashing in softer, warmer colors? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-having-second-thoughts-kr-jacket#post-1085560 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 23:29:27 +0000 Parsley 1085560@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Karie, I hear you talking about your problem mid-section in various posts, but I have yet to ever see any "problem". You look slim and trim and lovely.</p> <p>I like the jacket on you! The only caveat is that I don't think it looks too great with plaid, or probably a lot of other patterns. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-all-having-second-thoughts-kr-jacket#post-1085556 Thu, 14 Nov 2013 23:23:17 +0000 Karie 1085556@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I loved this jacket yesterday but&nbsp;now I am having second thoughts. Reason being? The splash of white across my mid-section. My tummy is, most decidedly, not my best feature. And I'm not sure if the jacket makes it look better or worse. It's a puffer jacket anyway, and with that design they are not exactly slimming.&nbsp;</p> <p>I don't think a&nbsp;size smaller would work&nbsp;because I need some room for sweaters.&nbsp;So keep or keep looking?&nbsp; </p>
