I think it would be a great add to winterize a sheath dress. Buttoned up is better- for my eye&nbsp;anyway ... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1761246 Sun, 18 Dec 2016 15:37:22 +0000 lyn67 1761246@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Not all ruffles (and peplums) are created equal, some are softer than others, but think this one is on the more structured, arty side so will still match your style, pls. keep!:-). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1761215 Sun, 18 Dec 2016 12:05:20 +0000 Helen11 1761215@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great colour, love the button detail on the sleeve. It's a perfect fit.<br /> I don't think I could even try on jackets in in this weather! So it must be a keeper. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1761214 Sun, 18 Dec 2016 11:35:29 +0000 Bijou 1761214@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes this is beautiful on you and not too ruffled. It creates a nice contrast to some of your other jackets and looks stunning with your new skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1761136 Sat, 17 Dec 2016 21:45:46 +0000 Brooklyn 1761136@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks all!<br /> JAileen, that would be great. The neckline is a bit of a puzzle to me. I thought about backwards too. I would also like to know how Jenn wears hers as a scarf. Whether she just pulls it forward then tucks the tail under. We can workshop it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1761066 Sat, 17 Dec 2016 17:27:48 +0000 Anonymous 1761066@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all the buttons, military styling and flared back. I think it'll look great with skirts and dresses. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1761054 Sat, 17 Dec 2016 16:16:46 +0000 JAileen 1761054@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Brooklyn, I'm going to try on the EF poncho again and take some pictures. I have another poncho in that style that makes sort of a cowl. When I tried on the EF one, my first instinct of how I wanted to wear it put the label in the front, which won't work because of the cowl effect. I can't wear it for awhile because we're having a cold spell. It was 15F this morning. Nothing compared to the Midwest and Canada, but very cold nonetheless. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1761053 Sat, 17 Dec 2016 16:09:55 +0000 Bennett 1761053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't imagine what would look bad on your cute figure, Brooklyn! This jacket really stands out over a column of color, like you've created in the last photo. It's definitely a special piece to add to your wardrobe! </p> <p>The 'softened edges' (in lieu of calling them ruffles!) are what makes this jacket so eye-catching, plus the rich color. What a nice surprise you've found! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1761049 Sat, 17 Dec 2016 15:54:50 +0000 shedev 1761049@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the jacket. The skirt is absolutely stunning. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1760974 Sat, 17 Dec 2016 03:48:11 +0000 Dottie 1760974@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I absolutely love it and the last photo is KILLER. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1760951 Sat, 17 Dec 2016 01:03:53 +0000 Brooklyn 1760951@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aw, thanks guys. You're the best.<br /> El Cee, you can see that my hair has declared defeat in the battle with humidity. My GHD (hair iron) is currently on stress leave but will be back next week to resume the fight.<br /> JAileen, I also got my EF poncho! It's lovely but I think I might need a workshop on how to wear it. The neckline doesn't sit straight on me, it sort of forms an asymmetrical cowl neck. Does that make any sense to you? For further discussion... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1760938 Sat, 17 Dec 2016 00:02:18 +0000 mtnsofthemoon 1760938@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agree with everyone else. &nbsp;Not a ruffle/peplum gal either but that jacket has so much more going on and its is DYNAMITE with that skirt!! &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1760928 Fri, 16 Dec 2016 23:12:06 +0000 JAileen 1760928@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks better on you than the model. I'm glad you're keeping it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1760920 Fri, 16 Dec 2016 23:01:51 +0000 El Cee 1760920@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous on you... so glad it is "staying". :-)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1760909 Fri, 16 Dec 2016 22:13:42 +0000 Brooklyn 1760909@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's great Diana! I thought of you too! Also FC (Firecracker). I hope you like it.<br /> I tried it on again this morning and it provoked warm and fuzzy feelings - and not just because of the heat. So I think it's staying.<br /> The peplum is just a different shape from what I am used too. I love the 80s new romantic look but it doesn't seem like me. I generally go for a more streamlined look.<br /> But I am buoyed by all your responses. Architectural ruffle, I like Thanks everyone! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1760873 Fri, 16 Dec 2016 16:22:31 +0000 Diana 1760873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh man I might need this jacket. It looks amazing on you, esp with that skirt! </p> <p></p> ETA:&nbsp; I ordered it.&nbsp; Will let you know how it turns out! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1760866 Fri, 16 Dec 2016 15:16:28 +0000 Mirjana 1760866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jacket is fantastic, I also hesitated with first pic, but when I saw the last one definitely yes keep it for sure, suit you very good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1760859 Fri, 16 Dec 2016 14:50:17 +0000 Janet 1760859@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it. Ditto to what Emily said. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1760850 Fri, 16 Dec 2016 13:56:29 +0000 cindysmith 1760850@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it. I'm not a riffles and peplum kind of girl myself. However, these ruffles and peplum aren't overtly ruffly. They're a bit more subtle, architectural. They keep the jacket from being too military or severe or something. It looks great on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1760849 Fri, 16 Dec 2016 13:50:15 +0000 Anonymous 1760849@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, definitely a keeper, so unique! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1760848 Fri, 16 Dec 2016 13:31:46 +0000 Suz 1760848@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So beautiful on you! wow. I think the structure and military air of the jacket keep it from seeming too fluttery.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1760831 Fri, 16 Dec 2016 11:14:04 +0000 Maneera 1760831@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#5 is to die for!!! Definitely keepers! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1760815 Fri, 16 Dec 2016 07:05:21 +0000 Mauvish 1760815@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>my eyes are glued on photo # 5 -- fantastic pieces. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1760811 Fri, 16 Dec 2016 06:38:49 +0000 Sal 1760811@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes I think both keepers, I see the ruffles as almost 18th century male attire.... It looks super with the sleek skirt and would work well with all sorts of pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1760807 Fri, 16 Dec 2016 06:26:38 +0000 anne 1760807@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow. I echo Joy. The jacket and the skirt do look like a runway outfit! And yes architectural.</p> <p>Looking great Brooklyn!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1760806 Fri, 16 Dec 2016 06:16:29 +0000 Anonymous 1760806@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Brie said. The jacket is wonderful. It is somewhat architectual which makes it seem more your style than a floppy ruffled look would. I love #5. The skirt plus jacket look like a runway outfit to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1760803 Fri, 16 Dec 2016 06:00:27 +0000 BrieN 1760803@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Whoa. You, in photo #5, outstanding! I really like those two pieces together. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1760802 Fri, 16 Dec 2016 05:57:31 +0000 Barbara Diane 1760802@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the jacket is really special. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1760798 Fri, 16 Dec 2016 05:02:55 +0000 Emily K 1760798@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the ruffles are architectural enough to suit you. &nbsp;Nice jacket. &nbsp;Welcome back!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/fp-flared-and-femme-jacket#post-1760797 Fri, 16 Dec 2016 04:55:24 +0000 Liz 1760797@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fab and I vote to keep! The jacket doesn't read overly feminine to me and the peplum + not-quite-ruffles add major interest! </p>
