As everybody else I am especially taken with ##1 and 3. The dark wash is classic and firs you like a glove. The white one is invaluable for brightening up the outfits and moving them to "dressy but still casual" category instantly.<br />I find my faded denim boxy biker jacket also very useful in summer - for those cases when you want the lightness but white is too bright.<br />Angie has quite a few ensembles with light blue which I a great inspiration!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-trinity/page/2#post-1480685 Mon, 27 Apr 2015 01:00:59 +0000 Vanesa 1480685@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All really nice but 1st is my favorite! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-trinity#post-1478141 Tue, 21 Apr 2015 18:03:27 +0000 Beth Ann 1478141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deb:&nbsp; Comments on the way high contrast works for me are helpful.&nbsp; I often think low contrast neutrals read more sophisticated, but I don't think they suit my features or mood as color and bold patterns do.&nbsp; It reminds me to be myself, and enjoy the neutral looks occasionally, and on others!</p> <p>Elizabeth P:&nbsp; The weather is helping me out this week -- temps in the 50s are perfect for these toppers! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-trinity#post-1478058 Tue, 21 Apr 2015 14:27:33 +0000 Elizabeth P 1478058@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like these all on you Beth Ann, but the saturated dark one and the white steal the show over the mid coloured one.&nbsp; I think you'll really enjoy these, once you get them worked into your wardrobe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-trinity#post-1478056 Tue, 21 Apr 2015 14:14:44 +0000 Deb 1478056@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Once again you look fabulous in black and white. Seriously. The high contrast suits you very much....hence #4 is my favourite hands down. I like the dark denim with the floral skirt for an unexpected yet attractive combination. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-trinity#post-1477991 Tue, 21 Apr 2015 09:19:18 +0000 lyn67 1477991@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, they all fit great, would keep them, all! I do have (and love them dearly) the light blue and the white ones, but need that ink one RIGHT NOW! Wow!!! YLF but curious&nbsp;how's the "church lady denim" look to avoid it for myself, too???:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-trinity#post-1477979 Tue, 21 Apr 2015 07:47:48 +0000 Dixie 1477979@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Outfits 2 and 3 are my favourites! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-trinity#post-1477978 Tue, 21 Apr 2015 07:35:20 +0000 anne 1477978@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like them Beth Ann, especialy the dark blue and white ones.&nbsp;I don't think "church lady denim" is a thing over here, so I am none the wiser about that!. I don't have a denim jacket at all right now, but I am pretty keen to get one to wear with skirts, the way you are rocking these! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-trinity#post-1477954 Tue, 21 Apr 2015 04:39:14 +0000 Anonymous 1477954@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like all three jackets and predict that they will be workhorses for you. I wear mine a lot except in summer when they are just too hot even for air conditioning. As Suz said, they are perfect for casualizing pieces that might look too dress. I may have to see if our Khols has that skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-trinity#post-1477952 Tue, 21 Apr 2015 04:30:56 +0000 Beth Ann 1477952@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Merwoman, for the thumbs up!</p> <p>Shevia: I think denim jackets are popular with good reason --- I've just got to find the way to make them work for me!</p> <p>Adelfa:&nbsp; Good point!&nbsp; My DH's desk is 3 feet from the dryer -- he keeps the laundry moving during the day, which is awesome.&nbsp; He's pretty much learned to hang almost everything of mine, lol! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-trinity#post-1477919 Tue, 21 Apr 2015 03:01:08 +0000 Adelfa 1477919@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Beth Ann, I like all three, and think you are looking super stylish! One tip: don't put your white jacket in the dryer. I sized myself out of one that way. I think sometimes blue denim is already washed in order to fade or distress, but the white is sort of untouched by human hands! Or water. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-trinity#post-1477877 Tue, 21 Apr 2015 01:56:44 +0000 Jaime 1477877@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The white one is the one that popped my eyes, but the dark and midtone jacket look great too. I find that a denim jacket can tone down a dressy look, which is very useful in a casual atmosphere. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-trinity#post-1477856 Tue, 21 Apr 2015 01:20:17 +0000 merwoman 1477856@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's a denim hat-trick!

Agreeing with CL too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-trinity#post-1477734 Mon, 20 Apr 2015 22:16:30 +0000 unfrumped 1477734@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also love the dark wash with your coloring. And the white one next. Of course I'm more thinking of these with your more polished items and not camping, etc.<br />There have been several posts on how it can be difficult to wear a jean jacket, but I think they look <u>very</u> good on you, so I echo cocolion, that these do a nice job of dressing down items that work well for you, such as the pencil skirts, and provide lightweight coverage. It is very hard to find lightweight jackets that fit into a good style groove. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-trinity#post-1477731 Mon, 20 Apr 2015 22:14:24 +0000 Suz 1477731@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A post from Beth Ann!!!</p> <p>You look fantastic. And I am SO with you on the usefulness of denim jackets for the more casual than we might like life. A denim jacket allows me to "get away with" skirts and dresses when I'd otherwise feel overdressed.&nbsp;</p> <p>I adore #1 (fit is great -- and with that fantastic floral skirt? -- KILLER!) and I also love the white one. The lighter one will also be super useful. Good purchases, all.&nbsp;</p> <p>Heh, I just realized that I have 3 denim jackets, too. One white cropped, one faded/ distressed cropped, and one fitted dark one with leather sleeves. &nbsp;3 times the charm. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-trinity#post-1477729 Mon, 20 Apr 2015 22:08:57 +0000 Beth Ann 1477729@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for helpful comments!&nbsp; Seems like you all like the dark one best, too --- and for looks alone, I feel the same.</p> <p>Aziraphale:&nbsp; The sandals are Fit Flops I found at DSW for a terrific price.&nbsp; I've wanted to try their footbed for a long time.</p> <p>Daria:&nbsp; I'm a sucker for a bright patterned top -- hence the need for solid jackets, lol!</p> <p>Inge:&nbsp; You see my intent in these purchases clearly!&nbsp; I'm still adjusting to the return of light-colored denim!</p> <p>Kelly --- you are Queen denim!&nbsp; Glad you chimed in.</p> <p>Thistle:&nbsp; you know how rare a lightweight jacket, with good stretch, and one that holds its shape, truly is!&nbsp; I wore holes in the one that saw me through the kids' early years.&nbsp; I use to store all manner of kid treats in the pockets!</p> <p>Rachy:&nbsp; Black and White is my neutral palette --- of course, I choose the high contrast of both in big doses, so it's almost like wearing big flowers on my butt -- wait -- I do that, too!</p> <p>Yes, Denise:&nbsp; You understand well what it is to need to look a bit more casual than your target style, but not look too conservative.&nbsp; My styling will be important -- and I look forward to the challenge!</p> <p>Thanks, Alasse!</p> <p>Frannie:&nbsp; Loved this bold, unexpected floral skirt.&nbsp; It's one of those great scuba knits --- tough and comfy!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-trinity#post-1477645 Mon, 20 Apr 2015 19:59:30 +0000 frannieb 1477645@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>First - I can't get past the first pencil skirt it is so freaking fab.<br />The first jacket looks great and I like th last one. I think I might have the stink eye for light denim so i can't comment.&nbsp;<br />They do seem like they fit the needs you described. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-trinity#post-1477641 Mon, 20 Apr 2015 19:50:00 +0000 Alassë 1477641@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are great looks for you (1 is my favourite).</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-trinity#post-1477633 Mon, 20 Apr 2015 19:32:47 +0000 CocoLion 1477633@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the first and third. &nbsp;They fit best. &nbsp;But I do understand that an oversized jean jacket has a role to play in the wardrobe.</p> <p>I think it's very smart of you to invest in jean jackets because they make your outfits more stylish while not making you look over-dressed for your environment. &nbsp;Nor do they look too conservative, and you teach (right?) so it's good to look more contemporary given that you work with younger people. &nbsp;Being too conservative might gain you more authority but you lose some accessibility. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-trinity#post-1477620 Mon, 20 Apr 2015 18:38:39 +0000 rachylou 1477620@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok. First off, your black and whites win win win (black and white spring!! ;)). Love the floral skirt.</p> <p>Re. denim jackets - they're not my thing, but I admire how well you've done them (!!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-trinity#post-1477615 Mon, 20 Apr 2015 18:24:30 +0000 Thistle 1477615@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the first one especially!&nbsp; What fab finds all around. Jackets are <i><b>so </b></i>hard to find that fit, flatter and are comfy enough. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-trinity#post-1477609 Mon, 20 Apr 2015 18:15:01 +0000 kellygirl 1477609@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agreeing that these all work for you! I love the sleekness of 1 and the brightness of the white one. The medium blue is perfect as a casual outerwear piece. Super fab. You are gorgeous in all!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-trinity#post-1477602 Mon, 20 Apr 2015 18:07:31 +0000 Inge 1477602@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think all three are perfect for the goals you are describing above, Beth Ann. I especially like the fit of the first dark denim jacket and the white one, but the looser fit of the lighter blue jacket is also on trend (and looks good on you).<br />I also love how you have styled them there, and have a feeling they'll turn out to be super versatile pieces for you.</p> <p>Also: adore that floral skirt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-trinity#post-1477596 Mon, 20 Apr 2015 17:51:55 +0000 Daria 1477596@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that the first one fits really well, and I love the white one with the bright top! </p>
