Definitely more versatile. Maybe you should look for a similar color and paisley print is a scarf?

I liked the small buttons and velvet trim. I still think the other one's pretty eye-catching, but not for me.

Sorry, but I'm going to vote hideous on the paisley one. I think it's because it looks stiff and kind of quilted though, not because of the cut or pattern.

This jacket would fit in nicely with your style. It's funky but classy and can be dressed up with black leggings and a sweater and worn with boots, or paired with jeans and flats. Fun!!

Still, Tricia, I really like you in some of the more "classic vintage" pieces you have been wearing lately. They just seem like a natural fit and style for you. On the other hand, I think this is an exploratory period for you, so maybe you need to try a piece like this to see if it feels right. By no means is it hideous. It's just not my personal taste. catgirl on "Is this really cool, or really hideous?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-really-cool-or-really-hideous#post-270647 Sun, 26 Dec 2010 18:18:28 +0000 catgirl 270647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think you could make it look very retro cool, Tricia... capellipro on "Is this really cool, or really hideous?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-really-cool-or-really-hideous#post-270645 Sun, 26 Dec 2010 18:15:16 +0000 capellipro 270645@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Very cool. With a pair of bootcut dark wash jeans and heels, Black sequined top underneath..... Awesome!

I just can't stop looking at it. It's from the 70s and is for sale on Etsy.
