I am wearing the outfit without the scarf today, an office day and my birthday :)&nbsp;</p> <p>I will keep working with my scarves (will definitely consider magnets), but was happy this went in another direction because it was a perfect opportunity to wear the new earrings. And my shorter neck and small features do generally mean either chunky earrings or scarf, not both. I do feel the scarf dresses up the look as Angie noted so it's a good option to work out the details on.</p> <p>Sally, the jacket is from a new-to-me brand called Oak + Fort. I bought it in-store.</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://ca.oakandfort.com/OVERSIZED-PLAID-BLAZER_5?itemId=524195">https://ca.oakandfort.com/OVER.....mId=524195</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blazer-as-inspired-by-carols#post-2301269 Wed, 11 Jan 2023 08:45:46 +0000 Zaeobi 2301269@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Loves that shade of green &amp; the 'blonde' tortoiseshell earrings! </p> <p>For me, double magnets have been a game changer when it comes to keeping my silk scarves in place (the pins I used to use would leave holes). If you don't have magnets though, then another alternative is to slide the back of an earring post onto a safety pin (so that the round springy part doesn't snag). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blazer-as-inspired-by-carols#post-2301254 Wed, 11 Jan 2023 05:00:13 +0000 Sally 2301254@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh I love the jacket. That’s exactly what I’m looking for for winter. Where did you find it? It looks great the way you have styled it </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blazer-as-inspired-by-carols#post-2301252 Wed, 11 Jan 2023 04:53:28 +0000 slim cat 2301252@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The length of jeans are perfect and I love your mix of cool and warm tones ( earrings are fab! ). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blazer-as-inspired-by-carols#post-2301237 Wed, 11 Jan 2023 03:20:12 +0000 Suz 2301237@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So great to see you, <b>Jules</b>! Of course I am in love with the pattern mix and the scrunched sleeves. Great idea to roll/scrunch them together -- fabulous! The scarf looks really good, to my eye. Gorgeous earrings, too.&nbsp;</p> <p>The jeans look a good length in this photo. It can be tough to decide, though, I know, and sometimes high tops or booties cover a multitude of length problems, which is one great reason to wear them.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blazer-as-inspired-by-carols#post-2301234 Wed, 11 Jan 2023 03:14:19 +0000 CarolS 2301234@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, Jules -- I love the pattern mixing of striped tee, checked jacket and those fabulous tortoise-y earrings. I like the scarf, too, but would like to see a bit more of the pattern. It might be that the outfits is best with the earrings or the scarf but not both together?</p> <p>Thanks for sharing! I'm so tickled to have inspired you.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blazer-as-inspired-by-carols#post-2301233 Wed, 11 Jan 2023 03:13:30 +0000 Angie 2301233@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER</p> <p>ROCKING this,<b> Jules</b> :)&nbsp;</p> <p>The stripe is delicious with the checked blazer, and white soled sneakers. Snd the scarf adds dressy chic! </p> <p>The jeans don't look too short, and go Team Fleece Lined Cons! Love mine.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blazer-as-inspired-by-carols#post-2301225 Wed, 11 Jan 2023 02:49:29 +0000 Irina 2301225@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks very nice and I like it with that scarf.&nbsp;<div>One thing I do sometimes with scarves - tie it a bit lower and tuck it between the lapels down to the first button to fill the front, so the striped top will not fight the scarf. Stripes on the sleeves add nice extra pattern.&nbsp;</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blazer-as-inspired-by-carols#post-2301223 Wed, 11 Jan 2023 02:45:23 +0000 Dee 2301223@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking good in the oversized blazer and I really like the breton top with it all too. Its a nice mix of warm and cool neutrals. I find scarves kind of finicky and a bit of a challenge to wear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/blazer-as-inspired-by-carols#post-2301211 Wed, 11 Jan 2023 01:24:05 +0000 Jules 2301211@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Carol’s post today inspired me to try my oversized blazer with my new wide-ish leg jeans. The weather is uncharacteristically favourable for it too. I think I actually prefer my version without the scarf, and I wish my jeans were wider (and longer - they looked a snitch too short with my docs, so I switched to these fleece-lined Cons). But I did learn rolling up both the sleeves together helps them stay scrunched. New earrings from a local Christmas market incorporate both the warm and cool neutrals in my outfit. And one of my fashion goals for 2023 is to learn how to tie my silk scarves </p>
