I'll have to go back and take a closer look at the cuffs + try to belt it. Zara has good deals for returning, so I can buy and play around a bit at home before I make a final decision. </p> <p>I also need to do some budget counting and thinking</p> <p>Una - it is actually the pocket detailing that *is* the cool thing about this shirt IMO it is a touch of bling, but not too much at all </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-or-not-green-utility-shirt#post-689028 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 15:43:21 +0000 jayne 689028@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this look....And it seems it is supposed to run a bit big so I say buy! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-or-not-green-utility-shirt#post-689004 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 15:33:54 +0000 catgirl 689004@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it! The pocket detail is surprising but pretty cool. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-or-not-green-utility-shirt#post-688908 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 14:02:13 +0000 texstyle 688908@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it and think you'd get a lot of wear out of this! The inspiration photo helps - I think it looks really nice over something feminine like that - but it could work in a lot of ways. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-or-not-green-utility-shirt#post-688795 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 11:43:41 +0000 harmonica 688795@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Annagybe - thanks for the link, I'll look into it Zara came to my town just a few years ago and quite recently discovered it, so I'm very happy about that. Online shopping could be an option for you?</p> <p>DeclawedJ - very good question! Yes, i do have a beige/sand coloured utility jacket from the 1970's (from my mother). I will have to consider getting this too, because I am well covered when comes to jackets, but not shirts. Thanks for posing important question!</p> <p>Angie - yes the sleeves are rolled beack because of length, but it was already like that on the hanger and I forgot to unroll it to see how the cuff really looks like. Hmmm... might have to go back and have a better look at it. Do you think I should try to size down? Is it too long in the back?</p> <p>Jonsey - so sorry that it didn't fit you! Zara sizes do tend to run a bit small</p> <p>Sara L. and missvee- I didn't have a belt, so I should probably go back and retry it belted. Good advise!</p> <p>Marley and Kirti - thanks! </p> <p>Rute - how good to know! this was new to me. I guess you have to pay a bit for the service, but that is definately worth it</p> <p>Deborah - thanks for your input! You have seen quite a lot of my stuff and style and your comments are always highly appreciated because I always learn a thing or two and I get some other perspectives. thank you, again!</p> <p>ETA: this is one way I picture how to wear the shirt, to add edge to a dress outfit (though do not have a white dress ;-)) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-or-not-green-utility-shirt#post-688748 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 08:53:02 +0000 Deborah 688748@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this is very you from what I have seen of your wardrobe Harmonica. I could see this left unbuttoned and belted. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-or-not-green-utility-shirt#post-688741 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 07:58:24 +0000 rute 688741@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Zara has a tailor service, so you can as them to measure and hem the sleeves!<br /> I love this jacket! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-or-not-green-utility-shirt#post-688740 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 07:51:03 +0000 Kirti 688740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-or-not-green-utility-shirt#post-688484 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 01:12:08 +0000 Marley 688484@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it! I saw it in the store. Its really cool! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-or-not-green-utility-shirt#post-688482 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 01:11:48 +0000 missvee 688482@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like what I see but why don't you style it a few different ways before you make up your mind. You might find that it looks a bit bulky when you belt it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-or-not-green-utility-shirt#post-688474 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 01:08:13 +0000 Sara L. 688474@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the style but it seems a little roomy in pics 3 and 4. But if you're planning on belting it, then it will probably look fine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-or-not-green-utility-shirt#post-688357 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 23:17:25 +0000 Jonesy 688357@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it! I ordered that very shirt in a L but the shoulders were *still* too tight for me (even though the website boasted of its oversized fit--ha!), so get it so I can live vicariously through you :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-or-not-green-utility-shirt#post-688347 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 23:06:28 +0000 Angie 688347@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it too! Are the sleeves rolled back because they are long? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-or-not-green-utility-shirt#post-688333 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 22:55:21 +0000 DeclawedJaguar 688333@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it on you, the size seems fine. However, don't you have something very similar? Or is that a jacket that you have? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-or-not-green-utility-shirt#post-688319 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 22:35:28 +0000 annagybe 688319@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh I like it, a lot. Michelle from the blog Kingdom of Style always has interesting looks with shirts and jackets like this. Wish there was a Zara near me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buy-or-not-green-utility-shirt#post-688292 Wed, 08 Aug 2012 22:16:35 +0000 harmonica 688292@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Is this one too big for me? The sleeves obviously needs to be shortened and i would probably wear it as a layering top over dresses and slim/skinny jeans, maybe belted. </p> <p>Do you see it go with my wardrobe?
