And really, I couldn't agree more about: <i>"If doing a keep or return, I think it's best to style it </i><b><i>as we would wear it </i></b><i>or at least one of the possible ways we'd wear it." So, I say keep!:-)</i></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-the-faded-version#post-2318889 Wed, 19 Apr 2023 11:47:37 +0000 Tanya 2318889@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The denim jacket is perfect on you, Suz!&nbsp; And how fun that it matches you light denim bottoms.&nbsp; Both outfits should be worn out.&nbsp; Your spring wardrobe refresh is going spectacularly well! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-the-faded-version#post-2318872 Wed, 19 Apr 2023 05:20:13 +0000 Bijou 2318872@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, it is always fabulous to get a detailed review on one of Angie's top picks.&nbsp;&nbsp;The apple and Summer of Love details are so special - I appreciate that you have shown these gorgeous features.</p> <p>I love the jacket and it looks amazing on you.

I can imagine that finding long enough pants if you are tall must be a pain. <b>Janet </b>and a few others here like <b>Staysfit </b>can relate! It is the opposite for us shorties, of course. I am used to hemming just about anything. But sometimes hemming spoils the line, so it's not so simple. Anyway...these full lengths would make taller people or those with long legs/ short torso look all legs for a thousdand miles! My legs are on the short side even for my height...</p> <p>The pocket placement on this jacket is genius. And they are kind of 3-D. The access is just from above -- not the side. But they are very architectural in person -- not a simple patch but a deep patch.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-the-faded-version#post-2318831 Tue, 18 Apr 2023 23:00:02 +0000 Indigoprint 2318831@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this on you Suz. So blue!!!<br /> Your posts are influencing me to re-examine full length jeans. I am tall so length has always been a challenge for me but WOW those ON jeans are Fab and perfect color for warm weather.<br /> Love the pocket placement on the jacket. Pockets with flaps on the chest are the only thing about denim jackets that I do not love, so I think the placement is genius...Do they access on the side in addition to the top? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-the-faded-version#post-2318826 Tue, 18 Apr 2023 21:18:06 +0000 Suz 2318826@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I should clarify -- the <b>"Summer of Love' appears on the INSIDE back </b>of the jacket -- it's not visible from outside. Which is extra special, really. It's just for the wearer -- or if the wearer takes it off. Details like that make it so unusual.&nbsp;</p> <p>Scotch and Soda quality seems lovely, <b>Sal</b>, you are right! The prices are on the high side for me, for sure, but they do have seasonal sales. One of my step-sons has been dressing himself in S&amp;S for the last few years and does he ever look fab!&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Irina </b>-- yes, I mean I <b>might</b> wear these as actual outfits...if it ever warms up enough, lOL -- still 10 degrees here -- but I would probably switch out footwear or make some other small tweaks. </p> <p>This was just thrown on to show the colour match, really, and to see how it looked. </p> <p>I'm always a bit careful to say whether I am trying it on as I would wear it or just to see the fit/ proportions etc. because I notice that when we ask one another for feedback, we get more helpful responses if people know exactly what we're doing.&nbsp;</p> <p>If doing a keep or return, I think it's best to style it <b>as we would wear it </b>or at least one of the possible ways we'd wear it.<b>&nbsp;</b>It can be awfully hard to judge those pants if you are wearing them with a pajama top or the length of the dress if you are not wearing shoes, just for example.&nbsp; OTOH, sometimes we just want to play around and show what we bought or we don't have time for a full try-on session, in which case it's important to say that or we might get comments that are beside the point.&nbsp;</p> <p>Re denim on denim -- yes, I have usually mixed and matched, too -- dark with medium or medium with white are my usual combos. My comfort zone is more with those, but I would try a version of this.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>BlueJay </b>-- good idea to try Mango!&nbsp; I will have a look.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Sharan, Nikki, Dee, Suntiger, Angie, Star, Cardiff Girl, Carol </b>-- thank you! The very light wash denim does feel like a fresh change! Medium wash is still most flattering to me personally (near my face, at least) but this feels great for summer!&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-the-faded-version#post-2318809 Tue, 18 Apr 2023 19:38:26 +0000 Sal 2318809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great jacket on you!

Not sure why when I think of double denim I think dark wash or medium wash. Maybe because it has been since 199? that it was a thing! I bought a cropped denim jacket from Mango a couple of years ago and I wear it more often than my other jackets because it is cropped.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-the-faded-version#post-2318788 Tue, 18 Apr 2023 17:39:00 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2318788@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>That jacket is the bomb!

I’m curious,&nbsp;<b>These weren't real outfits.

I had a denim jacket that was cut, oddly enough, like the red Mary Poppins jacket. It sort of came alive when I put it on. Sometimes it is the things you don't even think will work that work best.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-on-denim-the-faded-version#post-2318743 Tue, 18 Apr 2023 15:51:56 +0000 Suz 2318743@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You've seen a few of these items, mentioned in today's blog post, already, but for fun, I wanted to show you the piece de resistance! The Scotch and Soda denim jacket.&nbsp;</p> <p>This was pricey for me but a felt like a smart splurge, if that makes sense. When I first joined YLF in 2011 (I think?) one of my first purchases (on sale, from the Bay) was a lightly distressed mid-blue cropped denim jacket that I still wear all the time. You've seen it in countless outfits. Later that year I bought a white denim jacket in the kids' department at Old Navy.&nbsp;</p> <p>Despite wearing these two items constantly, I had not updated/ upgraded to anything a little fancier. Both are looking a bit tired, TBH. They fit fine, and I really do prefer the cropped lengths to the longer oversized fits of recent years. But the one from Old Navy has some stains on the collar. (So if you see a great, cropped white denim jacket with silver hardwear, let me know, LOL! Or a blue one, for that matter!)&nbsp;</p> <p>Anyway, in the meantime I tried this lighter wash with the blousy cut and dropped shoulder, and it is a a really fun change. It seems to work best so far with wider trousers (denim or otherwise). It is so generous that it will fit over a big cotton sweater, which makes it versatile.&nbsp;</p> <p>But it's the details that really make it fun and special. See photos.&nbsp;</p> <p>Just trying it here with the ON wide legs (perfect match!) and the GAP wide leg crops -- for fun. These weren't real outfits. But I <b>will</b> probably wear it like this if it ever warms up!&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>I haven't worn this light a fade since 199-what?&nbsp; </p>
