I also agree you could try a size up to compare. That blazer looks so adorable on you. Love it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-the-bf-wagon#post-696161 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 07:21:02 +0000 CocoLion 696161@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the blazer and the size 4 jeans. I would like them bigger as well, but I do like the size 4. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-the-bf-wagon#post-696140 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 05:47:54 +0000 Marley 696140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would go up 2 sizes to get the true boyfriend slouchy look. I bought a size 6 last week (my normal size at GAP is a 0) and I had 2nd thoughts all week after I got them home - and so when Vicki and I met today to pick hers out, I tried on the 4 and the 2 - but in the end I went back home with the 6's. They look huge on me - I like 'em that way!</p> <p>I like the way the blazer looks on you. When you say that its a teeny bit snug in the shoulders - do you mean it feels snug or it looks snug, or both? If it *feels snug, I wouldn't get it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-the-bf-wagon#post-696045 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 02:08:49 +0000 Suz 696045@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mona, for the true BF look, I would size up again. MIne are TWO full sizes larger than I usually wear, and I usually wear my Gap jeans a touch looser than some people wear theirs. Especially for those of us with curves, we won't get that slouchy look without going WAY up in size. But they are going to be amazing on you! I love how you have styled them with the top and sandals. </p> <p>LOVE the blazer for you, too. The citron colour is great and adds such sass. I tried the fuchsia one on in the store but didn't think it looked that great on me. You, however, rock it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-the-bf-wagon#post-696028 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 01:48:17 +0000 Transcona Shannon 696028@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with those who say you could go up one more size - they look even better when the slouchiness is more intentional looking. Adore the blazer on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-the-bf-wagon#post-695971 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 00:29:19 +0000 Anonymous 695971@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They won't stretch that much. Take a look at Suz's pictures. Mine are like her biggest ones (but mine are a 12 instead of a 6). They are so baggy they don't really stretch out all that much because the fabric has so much ease. </p> <p>I did buy a 10 also, and those are quite baggy too, and I like them rolled a little higher, but I do love the bigger ones more. It takes a second to get used to the style shift -- you want them to look too big :)</p> <p>The blazer looks way better on you than me. I think I am definitely returning mine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-the-bf-wagon#post-695970 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 00:27:52 +0000 Mona 695970@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Shiny, I really like the colour combination, fit and fabric of this blazer. Sara, yes Ceit and Angie said to try size 6. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-the-bf-wagon#post-695968 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 00:26:00 +0000 MNsara 695968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the larger of your two sizes looks better (more like the intended BF look), but I think Ceit and Angie and others are encouraging you to try even one more size up (would that be 6?).</p> <p>Is that what anyone else got? Or if Ceit or Angie chime in again. . . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-the-bf-wagon#post-695966 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 00:24:20 +0000 shiny 695966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The blazer looks amazing on you. I adore the grey with yellow on you. The fit to my eye is perfection on your figure. KEEP.</p> <p>The bf jeans: my initial reaction was "adorable" but -- if we're going to be picky-- I do think you could size up one or even two sizes. I'd love to see the fit difference. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-the-bf-wagon#post-695960 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 00:08:46 +0000 Mona 695960@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For BF jeans, Una mentioned in one of the threads that these stretch a lot so should I keep size 4 and hope that it will stretch to get really baggy? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-the-bf-wagon#post-695958 Fri, 17 Aug 2012 00:06:57 +0000 Mona 695958@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOL Sarah, thanks for clarifying that. Jjsloane, which colour did you get in the blazer? Please post pics asap. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-the-bf-wagon#post-695953 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 23:59:19 +0000 Jjsloane 695953@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you could still size up one on the BF but the ones in 4-6 are like slim BFs. Love the blazer on you. I got mine today and am glad. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-the-bf-wagon#post-695952 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 23:58:58 +0000 sarah 695952@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, gosh, I LOVE that blazer! And I agree about going up a size in the jeans. (I'm pretty certain that's what Angie meant by agreeing with Ceit) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-the-bf-wagon#post-695946 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 23:54:14 +0000 Mona 695946@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, what do you think of the BF's fit? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-the-bf-wagon#post-695944 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 23:52:16 +0000 Sveta 695944@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you can go one size up to 6. If theyare too big in the waist you can use the belt or take them in a bit. I think even size 4 is a bit too tight in the low hip / thigh for BF fit.<br /> The blazer looks really nice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-the-bf-wagon#post-695940 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 23:47:32 +0000 Angie 695940@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Ceit said :)</p> <p>LOVE you in that blazer!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-the-bf-wagon#post-695937 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 23:45:22 +0000 Anonymous 695937@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I am size 8.</p> <p>The pockets are low, but that is the style of them. They are supposed to look oversized and baggy. I think getting a larger size would work better for you because it would look more intentionally baggy. On mine, the pockets start right at the curve of the buttocks and end up on my upper thighs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-the-bf-wagon#post-695931 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 23:39:24 +0000 Mona 695931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Also, looking closely at the pics now, aren't the pockets on these BF jeans placed too low? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-the-bf-wagon#post-695926 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 23:38:21 +0000 Mona 695926@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ceit, what size did you order for the blazer? I am wearing size 2. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-the-bf-wagon#post-695924 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 23:36:37 +0000 Anonymous 695924@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the larger BF jeans on you, I would even go larger, but I like mine to be really baggy!</p> <p>I like the academy blazer on you, the yellow and grey is really nice. I think it fits you better than it does me, you still have a waist when you wear yours. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/jumping-on-the-bf-wagon#post-695915 Thu, 16 Aug 2012 23:27:31 +0000 Mona 695915@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I got my BF's from Gap today. #1-3 are size 2 and #4-6 are size 4. I have noticed that they fit me a little snugger than other YLF'ers but size 4 is quite loose from the waist. I am thinking it is probably my extremely pear shaped body. What do you guys think?<br /> Last 4 pics are the famous academy blazer. It is a teeny bit snug in the shoulders but other than that I like the fit. Also, like Angie mentioned the fabric is really good quality. I would really like your honest feed back on these? </p>
