I would try different belts. I would wear it over a simple sweater dress or with ponte pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-would-you-funk-up-this-jacket#post-112088 Mon, 21 Dec 2009 03:27:40 +0000 Anonymous 112088@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Instead of a fabric flower pin, how about a simply shaped broach such as a circle pin. A metallic flower pin could also work. The jacket is adorable and fits you so well. I second Angie's suggestion of turning up the sleeves to show the lining. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-would-you-funk-up-this-jacket#post-112086 Mon, 21 Dec 2009 03:01:51 +0000 April 112086@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you for these suggestions! I don't have a green scarf (only a pashmina, probably too wide for this purpose), but will be on the lookout... </p> <p>I will post a photo once I assemble something. Does anyone think a flower pin on a plaid jacket would make me look like a graduate of clown college? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-would-you-funk-up-this-jacket#post-111997 Sun, 20 Dec 2009 17:11:26 +0000 medusa 111997@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My first thought also was a contrasting color scarf... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-would-you-funk-up-this-jacket#post-111988 Sun, 20 Dec 2009 16:42:43 +0000 Angie 111988@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This jacket is SO SWEET on you, April.</p> <p>I love Louise's suggestion of a green scarf. How about Ponte pants with boots? I know that you can’t wear jeans to work so I’m not suggesting jeans. You need smarter cowboy boots! Or oxfords. Add a waist belt over the jacket. Add bangles. Leave it open and belt the top underneath. Roll back the sleeves, show some liming. Match it with a skirt and fun hose. Does any of this make sense? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-would-you-funk-up-this-jacket#post-111971 Sun, 20 Dec 2009 14:57:09 +0000 chewyspaghetti 111971@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wear it with skinny jeans or pants tucked into tough boots </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-would-you-funk-up-this-jacket#post-111967 Sun, 20 Dec 2009 13:31:09 +0000 Louise 111967@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thinking out loud what i would wear with it using items from my own wardrobe- a turquoise large flower pin or an acid lime green crochet scarf (the colour of Angie's blog section) biker influences like a studded cuff or boots x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/how-would-you-funk-up-this-jacket#post-111966 Sun, 20 Dec 2009 12:59:25 +0000 April 111966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Last spring, I asked for input on whether I should keep this little plaid jacket with hot pink lining and peplum in the back. Angie suggested that I "funk it up a bit" and I am now looking for suggestions on how to do that.</p> <p>Here's the jacket:</p> <p><a href="http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/uu218/AprilYLF/Jackets%20Round%201/Plaid%20Jacket/IMG_0140.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i649.photobucket.com/al.....G_0140.jpg</a></p> <p><a href="http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/uu218/AprilYLF/Jackets%20Round%201/Plaid%20Jacket/IMG_0142.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i649.photobucket.com/al.....G_0142.jpg</a></p> <p>The colors of the jacket are a deep orange with touches of green. I was thinking of a deep purple flower pin but was afraid plaid + flower = clownish? </p> <p>How would you style this to increase the funk quotient? </p>
