I tend to think of the short jean or moto jacket as a layer on the level of a cardi or shrug instead of a longer trench/peacoat/anorak. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jackets-and-dresses#post-143909 Thu, 15 Apr 2010 18:15:02 +0000 Angie 143909@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a great guideline. But there are countless dress/skirt and jacket options in my opinion, because the variables of the dress/skirt and jacket can differ - and so can the body type. Marry those three variables harmoniously and you have a whole slew of additional combinations, especially when you add footwear as a variable too. </p> <p>Dressing is art, not science :0) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jackets-and-dresses#post-143816 Thu, 15 Apr 2010 13:46:47 +0000 rute 143816@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>they were talking about classic jackets (I don't know how you say...) and winter jackets, not denin jackets nor cardigans.</p> <p>Here is the link (hope it works):</p> <p><a href="http://www.oficinadeestilo.com.br/blog/2010/04/14/casacos-longos-e-alturas-de-barras/#more-15673" rel="nofollow">http://www.oficinadeestilo.com.....more-15673</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jackets-and-dresses#post-143785 Thu, 15 Apr 2010 11:11:27 +0000 Debora 143785@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Interesting, Rute. I've never really thought about this. Were they talking about dressy dresses and jackets? What about the cropped denim jackets that so many ladies wear so well on the forum? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jackets-and-dresses#post-143764 Thu, 15 Apr 2010 07:43:54 +0000 rute 143764@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was reading a Brazilian fashion blog talking about the perfect jacket for each outfit.<br /> They say that for dresses the best jacket is a long one, not as long as the dress (they say that to create visual interest the jacket should be a few inches shorter or longer than the dress).</p> <p>For two pieces outfit (skirts and pants) it can be used a jacket that hits on the mid of the hip.</p> <p>I never thought of that, but I had noticed that every time I tryied to combine a short jacket and a dress I felt odd and ended by leaving the house with the dress + my trench coat.</p> <p>What do you think? </p>
