It’s really not flattering on me as it’s quite shapeless. I think they can work, depending on the details and the outfit, but for me this style is not easy to make look good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/chore-jacket-trend#post-2016189 Thu, 28 Mar 2019 19:44:46 +0000 KikiG 2016189@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am going to give this particular jacket a pass. It might work better for me next fall, in a different fabrication.&nbsp; I'm not saying never, I'm just saying it is going to have to be just right! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/chore-jacket-trend#post-2016183 Thu, 28 Mar 2019 19:38:28 +0000 Anonymous 2016183@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love jackets like this. So much more interesting than plain denim jackets. &nbsp;I think that utility /cargo/chinos in olive would be a great pairing, white jeans, blue denim, a floral printed jean/cotton pant &nbsp;or dress, and of course shorts .....would all work with this. &nbsp;I really think pattern mixing will make this look. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/chore-jacket-trend#post-2016175 Thu, 28 Mar 2019 18:55:20 +0000 Style Fan 2016175@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have seen this type of jacket on a few bloggers.&nbsp; The stylist suggests wearing it with a body con dress and sneakers.&nbsp; That would be a cute look too.&nbsp; This is the kind of jacket that needs to be seen on.</p> <p>This shape would be awful on me but if it works for you then it would be cute with jeans and dresses. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/chore-jacket-trend#post-2016157 Thu, 28 Mar 2019 18:06:36 +0000 JAileen 2016157@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’ve had a few chore jackets, from LLBean and Duluth Trading (both thrifted and new). I had to pass them along. I like an adjustable waist, otherwise I look like a giant block. I love stripes, and think blue and white would be useful if this shape works for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/chore-jacket-trend#post-2016156 Thu, 28 Mar 2019 18:03:08 +0000 Anonymous 2016156@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Blush, burgundy, grey, or maybe olive bottoms? Agreeing with Gretchen though-if its not a Yes!! keep looking! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/chore-jacket-trend#post-2016154 Thu, 28 Mar 2019 17:58:25 +0000 MsMaven 2016154@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is one jacket I would have to see on you before I could say whether it works or not. I haven't seen any of these jackets in real life yet.&nbsp;</p> <p>Sounds like you have serious doubts about it.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/chore-jacket-trend#post-2016153 Thu, 28 Mar 2019 17:55:31 +0000 Gretchen 2016153@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this style of coat, but agree that it's important to get the fit and color just right.&nbsp;</p> <p>If you can't immediately think of at least 3 outfits it would go with or finish off, it's a pass for me.</p> <p>Would you find better uses with a single color jacket vs a pattern? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/chore-jacket-trend#post-2016147 Thu, 28 Mar 2019 17:40:33 +0000 KikiG 2016147@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I didn't know this was a thing until I read this blog post:&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://unefemme.net/on-my-style-radar-chore-jackets.html">https://unefemme.net/on-my-sty.....ckets.html</a></p> <p>I haven't found jean jackets super flattering for the last several years, and they have become orphans.&nbsp; I do like utility jackets when they hit me in the right place.&nbsp; So I was interested in this trend.</p> <p>I have this one, captured, right now.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="https://shop.nordstrom.com/s/madewell-denim-patch-pocket-chore-coat/5228821?origin=keywordsearch-personalizedsort&amp;breadcrumb=Home%2FAll%20Results&amp;color=luca%20stripe">https://shop.nordstrom.com/s/m.....a%20stripe</a></p> <p>And it is cute.&nbsp; The length is cute on my short self, the pockets hit at a cute place, not a dumpy place.&nbsp; It is a little boxy from the back, but cute from the front.&nbsp; But.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>1) It isn't white and red striped, it is really blush and red.&nbsp; It doesn't look right with white jeans, it looks off.&nbsp; I really needed it to be a third piece for white jeans.&nbsp; I need it to be a work horse, not a one trick pony.&nbsp;&nbsp;<br />2) for the price, I need this to look cute with more than denim bottoms, which is the only thing I can think to put with it.&nbsp; I can't think of any other way to style it, but I'm open to suggestions.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>So I"m not saying no to this look, I'm just saying "not this particular jacket."&nbsp; Thoughts?&nbsp; </p>
