You are so right. A fun and non-fuzzy (statement) jacket for presentations and other events are out there. I'll look out for that colour. I'm so happy that I finally feel confident enough to embrace brights and the whole colour spectrum. It sparks so much joy and positivity. :-)</p> <p>unfrumped - you described exactly how I was thinking! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-maximal-blazer#post-1754165 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 16:11:54 +0000 Anonymous 1754165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I understand the appeal. You will find your perfect presentation jacket.. And be glad that you left this one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-maximal-blazer#post-1754159 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 15:55:40 +0000 El Cee 1754159@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you made the right decision. The colors on the jacket are fabulous and I like the maximal feel of it... but the piece seemed too bulky (as others have mentioned). Perhaps you will find a statement jacket that is better suited to your needs.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-maximal-blazer#post-1754145 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 15:11:39 +0000 Suz 1754145@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>But I do love the colour for you! Sounds like you made the right decision, though.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-maximal-blazer#post-1754141 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 14:53:12 +0000 Bijou 1754141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Now I love maximal, but I agree with the above comments that the fit and bulk meant that I would also recommend a pass on this one. The perfect jacket is out there! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-maximal-blazer#post-1754136 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 14:46:34 +0000 harmonica 1754136@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you so much for your insightful comments! You helped me pin down why I was on the fence (ponpons, size, careful styling - I like versatility and less fuss). It's not returnable and I feel happy that I left it behind. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-maximal-blazer#post-1754133 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 14:40:44 +0000 unfrumped 1754133@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the colors, but it does seem s bit fuzzy and bulky for you. </p> <p>I definite suffer from Color Goggles + FOMO. I'll think, " but I'll never find another _____ in this color". Or something will be fun- looking and I'll try to imagine it will add some zing to my wardrobe. So I get it when things are ALMOST right.<br /> Still, I'd hold out for something a bit more minimally maximal or that is less "IT" by itself but can combine in interesting, maximal ways. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-maximal-blazer#post-1754109 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 13:22:06 +0000 Janet 1754109@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also wondered if the fit was a bit bulky through the top. On one hand, i see the appeal -- the colors and pattern are great. However, I do feel like the pompoms are perhaps a bit OTT for presentations. I could be wrong -- is it returnable? Can you take it home and try styling it? I think this is one of those pieces that needs to be properly styled to evaluate -- if you truly love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-maximal-blazer#post-1754104 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 12:53:33 +0000 Anonymous 1754104@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it has too much going on, harmonica. The thick fabric and pompoms are very maximal. A smaller dose of that type of thing would be fine, but it is the whole jacket and I think it would be distracting to people listening to you speak. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-maximal-blazer#post-1754103 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 12:10:05 +0000 bj1111 1754103@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Firstly Is it returnable?</p> <p>secondly it seems a bit big in the shoulders. How does it fit to you?</p> <p>Thirdly it is a cool hum/arts fabric and the structure makes it appropriate for conference or for teaching classes where you need extra gravitas. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-maximal-blazer#post-1754102 Sat, 26 Nov 2016 12:05:14 +0000 harmonica 1754102@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm sure drawn to this blazer but wonder if it is too much going on? Could it be worn for a presentation at a conference (arts, humanities) with neutral pieces?</p> <p>I don't have any jacket or blazer like this and price is really good. Do I have sales/colour goggles? </p>
