I have had a chiminea on my deck for what seems like ages now and have never built a fire in it because I always feared of little sparks getting on my decking or all the trees we have. I don't know why candles never occured to me!! Thank you!</p> <p>Sorry everyone...that had nothing to do with the topic at hand. I don't really have anything to add to this thread because everytime I tried on a boyfriend blazer, I was just not happy with the way it looks on my straightish shape. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-style-boyfriend-blazer#post-134785 Tue, 16 Mar 2010 01:23:51 +0000 Lee Hovey 134785@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh you ladies have come through, thank you so much for sharing your outfits! Thats exactly what I need to get my inspiration going.</p> <p>I wore the blazer, completely unplanned, today. When I got up I really wanted to wear this pink tank blouse that I have with an embellished collar. So I had that on and new I needed another layer, but the jacket I planned to wear looked all wrong. So I grabbed my new blazer, and I got alot of compliments! I think the proportion of the jacket is perfect on me and it was very comfortable.</p> <p>I am sorry I didn't get any pictures. The weather is horrible and cold, so I couldn't wait to get into my comfy clothes as soon as I got home </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-style-boyfriend-blazer#post-134770 Tue, 16 Mar 2010 00:51:03 +0000 Carole 134770@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Yublocka! I forgot about that combo, it is good to look back at photos! I wore mine (BF blazer) today, with a new lapel pin (black with white polka dots), embellished t shirt, slim jeans and converse. I have worn mine quite a bit as I don't have a moto jacket, was never able to find one that worked or looked right on me. Maybe next year! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-style-boyfriend-blazer#post-134762 Tue, 16 Mar 2010 00:20:16 +0000 yublocka 134762@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great looks Carole! I particularly like the first one, with the pattern mixing in the top and scarf, then the lovely pop of colour in the shoes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-style-boyfriend-blazer#post-134649 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 16:25:22 +0000 Carole 134649@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here are a couple of photo's from my attempts at styling the BF blazer. I saw the blazer yesterday at Target, what a bargain!</p> <p><a href="http://i561.photobucket.com/albums/ss54/cagremillion/DSC03450.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i561.photobucket.com/al.....C03450.jpg</a><br /> <a href="http://i561.photobucket.com/albums/ss54/cagremillion/DSC03384.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i561.photobucket.com/al.....C03384.jpg</a></p> <p>this one is with dress pants: <a href="http://i561.photobucket.com/albums/ss54/cagremillion/DSC03235.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i561.photobucket.com/al.....C03235.jpg</a></p> <p>Hope to see pictures soon! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-style-boyfriend-blazer#post-134636 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 15:47:23 +0000 Vani 134636@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Julie is right, it is all about trial and error. It all depends on the proportions of the other items in your outfits. There are times when I have been dreaming of a certain outfit with the BF blazer but when I put it on the proportions all all out of whack.</p> <p>Here are a few of my latest outfits with a BF blazer:<br /> <a href="http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj209/vmmpics/ylfjan2010/Jan11-Jan17/01142010.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i273.photobucket.com/al.....142010.jpg</a><br /> <a href="http://i273.photobucket.com/albums/jj209/vmmpics/ylfjan2010/Jan11-Jan17/01142010.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i273.photobucket.com/al.....142010.jpg</a></p> <p>I've been playing around with pairing it with dresses and skirts but haven't found a winning combination so far. Hopefully I will soon. Good luck Kendra! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-style-boyfriend-blazer#post-134629 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 15:33:12 +0000 Louise 134629@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><a href="http://i594.photobucket.com/albums/tt22/loulou4022/YLF/What%20I%20wore/002.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i594.photobucket.com/al.....re/002.jpg</a> I have also worn this outfit without the scarf and with a double wrap belt over the top of the jacket x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-style-boyfriend-blazer#post-134576 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 08:19:13 +0000 RoseandJoan 134576@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I honestly think this is trial and error to a certain extent. When you get dressed in the morning try on your outfit with your BF blazer to see how it looks. I have worn mine with full skirts, pencil skirts, tulip skirts, skinnies and tunics and leggings. I have yet to wear it with a dress but hope to rectify this soon. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-style-boyfriend-blazer#post-134530 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 02:09:14 +0000 chellebrate 134530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I may not know what I'm doing with it, but I wore mine in this outfit.<br /> <a href="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4001/4432439231_cb23e2fa38_b.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://farm5.static.flickr.com.....fa38_b.jpg</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-style-boyfriend-blazer#post-134509 Mon, 15 Mar 2010 01:28:59 +0000 chewyspaghetti 134509@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great score!

So I am looking for less obvious stuff... I like the idea of it over a dress, but I don't own any day dresses right now, so I really need ideas for type or dress (what shape, colors, etc...). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-style-boyfriend-blazer#post-134459 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 23:49:05 +0000 taylor 134459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great bargain!!!...I like Debora's idea. I don't think I have any photo's in my jackets, but if I dig one up I it will send your way") </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-style-boyfriend-blazer#post-134456 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 23:44:22 +0000 Debora 134456@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice blazer, Kendra! I think it would look great with a graphic tee and jeans for a smart casual look, and over a dress for a more business casual. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/help-me-style-boyfriend-blazer#post-134454 Sun, 14 Mar 2010 23:39:01 +0000 Lee Hovey 134454@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have admired the boyfriend blazer on so many of you for months. I have wanted to try it but was unwilling to spend much money on one ion case I couldn't pull it off. Well I scored one at Target on clearance for $15. (<a href="http://www.target.com/Mossimo-Black-Sateen-Boyfriend-Blazer/dp/B002Y0JWV2/ref=br_1_11?ie=UTF8&#038;frombrowse=1&#038;searchView=grid5&#038;searchNodeID=13034071&#038;node=13034071&#038;sr=1-11&#038;searchRank=price&#038;searchPage=1&#038;searchSize=30&#038;id=Mossimo%20Black%20Sateen%20Boyfriend%20Blazer&#038;qid=" rel="nofollow">http://www.target.com/Mossimo-.....&#038;qid=</a>)</p> <p>Now that I have it, I am feeling a little lost at the best way to style it. For reference I dress mostly smart casual and business casual.</p> <p>I was wondering if you ladies could send me links to pictures of you all rocking yours. I find the best inspiration in real life ladies, as opposed to mags or catalogs. </p>
