I have a belly so am ruled out for pleats on hips and&nbsp; too much&nbsp; volume but adore the look! :-)) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-skirt-and-chore-jacket#post-2022954 Sun, 28 Apr 2019 07:33:43 +0000 ligne 2022954@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the toffee jacket, you totally own it.

Love it! I am going to gently disagree with you about the skirt. I like the volume and the length. I would not change a thing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-skirt-and-chore-jacket#post-2022796 Sat, 27 Apr 2019 13:29:25 +0000 RobinF 2022796@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love both! I think the skirt length is perfect, looks the same as on the model. I agree with Windchime that it’s nice to have two very different looks with the same jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-skirt-and-chore-jacket#post-2022764 Sat, 27 Apr 2019 12:07:36 +0000 kkards 2022764@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG!!!!!! if i still wore business/business casual i'd have this skirt and jacket in my basket right now! this is just so fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-skirt-and-chore-jacket#post-2022760 Sat, 27 Apr 2019 12:02:23 +0000 Anonymous 2022760@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's pretty and looks great with the jacket, and sounds like you're feeling better about it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-skirt-and-chore-jacket#post-2022724 Sat, 27 Apr 2019 08:12:57 +0000 Bijou 2022724@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the jacket best with the Boden skirt - it is such a pretty and fresh look.

I am more in love with the skirt now! I have ordered the dress just now and will choose between the two.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Runs with Scissors</b>, that is so so helpful and I have ordered the dress, so that I can see if that is any easier and I feel less crowded in.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thank you <b>Rachylou</b>.<b> Missvee</b> thank you, the colours are super! Thank you for the tip on the shoes, I would wear sneaks or birkies with this for home.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thank you <b>Joy</b>. I am thinking that with some toffee coloured shoes I could wear this for work too.&nbsp;</p> <p>Yay <b>Angie</b>, thank you so much for doing the links, and for the Killer comment. I will keep either the skirt or the soon to arrive dress.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thank you <b>Windchime</b>, I am pleased with the jacket, it is going to be super for the weekends.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thank you <b>JAileen</b>!</p> <p><b>Christina F,</b> that dress is pretty! I will keep either the dress or skirt and I am looking forward to wearing it.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Suz,</b> it is a lovely weight of fabric, and yes 50's retro, Do try the skirt, it is lovely. I think it will super on you especially as I think you are a little taller than me.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-skirt-and-chore-jacket#post-2022673 Sat, 27 Apr 2019 02:03:13 +0000 Runs With Scissors 2022673@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the jacket and skirt on you!&nbsp; &nbsp;I tried the skirt also but it did not work for me -- the fit was off.&nbsp; &nbsp;I remember that the skirt also felt quite heavy, which is not necessarily a bad thing.&nbsp; But you probably won't forget you have it on.&nbsp; Maybe this is part of what makes it feel like "too much" to you as the wearer? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-skirt-and-chore-jacket#post-2022668 Sat, 27 Apr 2019 01:50:31 +0000 Suz 2022668@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the print on this -- I've been ogling the dress version but with a V neck it probably wouldn't work on me -- the skirt might be better. The print feels so fun -- 50s retro! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-skirt-and-chore-jacket#post-2022663 Sat, 27 Apr 2019 01:08:25 +0000 Christina F. 2022663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the skirt on you - please keep it! The color palette is wrong for my wardrobe, but I love this kind of stuff. See below my favorite dress, which is also from Boden. </p> <p>The jacket is great too and a nice pairing with the skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-skirt-and-chore-jacket#post-2022657 Sat, 27 Apr 2019 00:55:02 +0000 Nicola 2022657@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them both too!

They are very contrasting styles; you have two completely different outfits using the same jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-skirt-and-chore-jacket#post-2022639 Fri, 26 Apr 2019 22:48:36 +0000 Angie 2022639@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE the skirt and jacket, <b>Jane.</b> KILLER. Great lengths.&nbsp;</p> <p>Now I have skirt envy.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-skirt-and-chore-jacket#post-2022634 Fri, 26 Apr 2019 22:17:26 +0000 Anonymous 2022634@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The skirt in 1/2. It combines 2 favorite types of print motifs....watercolor and architecture. The jacket is a keeper for sure, with both the skirt and your mesh dress. I wanted the jacket but it was sold out. I hope it will come back into stock. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-skirt-and-chore-jacket#post-2022633 Fri, 26 Apr 2019 21:59:16 +0000 missvee 2022633@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love both pieces on you! The colours couldn’t be better. The skirt looks like a perfect length, but if you’re undecided make sure you try the outfit on with the shoes you intend to wear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-skirt-and-chore-jacket#post-2022627 Fri, 26 Apr 2019 20:58:05 +0000 rachylou 2022627@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I think the skirt as well as the jacket is smart! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-skirt-and-chore-jacket#post-2022626 Fri, 26 Apr 2019 20:46:36 +0000 Jane 2022626@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Runcarla, thank you! You've prompted me to remember I have a bag with a Brighton print on it. Similar colours.&nbsp;</p> <p>Bennett, thank you. May be!</p> <p>Anchie, it is a super jacket. Fabric is soft and comfy! Just saying! Yes, good point, I need to love it too!</p> <p>Thank you Sterling!&nbsp;</p> <p>I am coming round and may be I have a capsule buildings print kind of thing, and accept that I wouldn't wear the skirt loads, but it will be a joy to wear when I do! But what Anchie says, I need to love it....thinking! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-skirt-and-chore-jacket#post-2022624 Fri, 26 Apr 2019 20:37:07 +0000 Anonymous 2022624@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pictures 1 and 2 are breathtaking. &nbsp;I would keep and not change a thing &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-skirt-and-chore-jacket#post-2022623 Fri, 26 Apr 2019 20:34:46 +0000 anchie 2022623@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I should not have looked. Now I want that jacket too. It is beautiful on you, definite keep.<br /> Regarding the skirt - I don’t think it is too long and I like it, but you need to love it too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-skirt-and-chore-jacket#post-2022620 Fri, 26 Apr 2019 20:21:49 +0000 Bennett 2022620@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What??? That skirt is gorgeous as-is. So pretty with the pink jacket! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-skirt-and-chore-jacket#post-2022618 Fri, 26 Apr 2019 20:10:58 +0000 Carla 2022618@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh! How very pretty and springlike! Skirt length looks fashionably midi to me. I say 'KEEP'. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/boden-skirt-and-chore-jacket#post-2022617 Fri, 26 Apr 2019 20:03:37 +0000 Jane 2022617@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fresh out the bag! A lovely new jacket and skirt from Boden. </p> <p>I think the jacket is great, good colour, good fit. Not quite got the fullness of the Scotch and Soda version, but this is shorter and so probably better for me.&nbsp;</p> <p>Then the skirt, I love the print, but I think it is too much fabric and may be the print overwhelms me? There isn't a petite version. May be I could shorten? But it might cut the print awkwardly.&nbsp;</p> <p>Jacket also with my fav dress, the Top Shop mesh.</p> <p>I would so welcome your thoughts; I think I may keep the jacket and return the skirt? </p>
