A military-inspired look might be pleasantly edgy with the fluid drape of the skirt. I found this jacket at Macy's--it's black but has a lot of interest, between the seaming and the buttons--that might work:<br /> <a href="http://www1.macys.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=423829&#038;CategoryID=35920" rel="nofollow">http://www1.macys.com/catalog/.....ryID=35920</a></p> <p>And this, in brown faux leather:<br /> <a href="http://www1.macys.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=408800&#038;CategoryID=35920" rel="nofollow">http://www1.macys.com/catalog/.....ryID=35920</a></p> <p>Like the detail on this, not so keen on yellow with black:<br /> <a href="http://www1.macys.com/catalog/product/index.ognc?ID=402054&#038;CategoryID=35920" rel="nofollow">http://www1.macys.com/catalog/.....ryID=35920</a></p> <p>And for the look only--good Heavens, don't rush out to buy this at Ralph Lauren's designer price point!--a classic hacking jacket--longer, tweedy, fitted, outdoorsy:<br /> <a href="http://www.ralphlauren.com/product/index.jsp?productId=3642119&#038;cp=1760782.3134568&#038;ab=viewall&#038;view=all&#038;parentPage=family" rel="nofollow">http://www.ralphlauren.com/pro.....age=family</a></p> <p>Hope that helps. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-do-i-wear-this-skirt#post-106247 Sat, 14 Nov 2009 10:46:01 +0000 lex 106247@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that it's too much black with the black jacket, although the skirt is gorgeous. I think the hemline is difficult but possible to wear, especially if you wear it like you have with boots, and with a shorter, cropped, colorful jacket or cardigan. I think all tops need to be sleek with that much volume on the bottom. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-do-i-wear-this-skirt#post-106246 Sat, 14 Nov 2009 07:39:44 +0000 Carole 106246@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie-I'm not sure it's possible to shorten it, it is sort of a bubble hem, if that's what you call it, I'm not sure what type of jacket you mean, could I just wear a tighter fitting top since the skirt is more voluminous? Or should I just pack it away for now?</p> <p>Thanks for your help! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-do-i-wear-this-skirt#post-106245 Sat, 14 Nov 2009 06:58:51 +0000 Angie 106245@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That’s a pretty skirt. It might need to be shortened. How do you feel about that? And a shorter, cheekier jacket up on top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-do-i-wear-this-skirt#post-106154 Fri, 13 Nov 2009 19:13:52 +0000 Carole 106154@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I bought this skirt last year..love, love, love it but haven't worn it because I'm not sure how to...It's a silk Ralph Lauren, I'm wearing a blouse with it, not sure if that works or not, and then with a jacket, it looks like too much black going on.....what do you think? </p> <p><a href="http://i561.photobucket.com/albums/ss54/cagremillion/DSC03188.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i561.photobucket.com/al.....C03188.jpg</a></p> <p><a href="http://i561.photobucket.com/albums/ss54/cagremillion/DSC03189.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i561.photobucket.com/al.....C03189.jpg</a></p> <p><a href="http://i561.photobucket.com/albums/ss54/cagremillion/DSC03191.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i561.photobucket.com/al.....C03191.jpg</a></p> <p>Really appreciate your help so I can start wearing this puppy! </p>
