The olive color I find is very wardrobe friendly </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-military-jacket-1#post-271993 Thu, 30 Dec 2010 02:55:02 +0000 Marigold 271993@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great open! It doesn't have much appeal closed though, I'd definitely style it open - maybe with a dark wash pair of jeans or dark brown pants? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-military-jacket-1#post-271986 Thu, 30 Dec 2010 02:46:25 +0000 Anonymous 271986@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Darn, I hate saying this but although I love the color and the idea of this jacket, it does look a bit too bulky on you. I'm a fan of oversized jackets and with the right style and body type, they can be really fun. But I think there's too much material in the front, and that combined with the thick feel of the design on you, I'm thinking it's not your perfect look. Try these looks instead (just the idea of them, not necessarily these pieces or prices):</p> <p><a href="http://www.eddiebauer.com/catalog/product.jsp?ensembleId=38019&#038;&#038;categoryId=28069&#038;categoryName=JACKETS-AND-PARKAS&#038;pCategoryId=21153&#038;pCategoryName=JACKETS-COATS--PARKAS&#038;gpCategoryId=27301&#038;gpCategoryName=WOMENS-OUTERWEAR&#038;ggpCategoryId=1&#038;ggpCategoryName=EB&#038;catPath=~~categoryId=28069~~categoryName=JACKETS-AND-PARKAS~~pCategoryId=21153~~pCategoryName=JACKETS-COATS--PARKAS~~gpCategoryId=27301~~gpCategoryName=WOMENS-OUTERWEAR~~ggpCategoryId=1~~ggpCategoryName=EB&#038;viewAll=null" rel="nofollow">http://www.eddiebauer.com/cata.....ewAll=null</a></p> <p><a href="http://www.eddiebauer.com/catalog/product.jsp?ensembleId=37655&#038;&#038;categoryId=28069&#038;categoryName=JACKETS-AND-PARKAS&#038;pCategoryId=21153&#038;pCategoryName=JACKETS-COATS--PARKAS&#038;gpCategoryId=27301&#038;gpCategoryName=WOMENS-OUTERWEAR&#038;ggpCategoryId=1&#038;ggpCategoryName=EB&#038;catPath=~~categoryId=28069~~categoryName=JACKETS-AND-PARKAS~~pCategoryId=21153~~pCategoryName=JACKETS-COATS--PARKAS~~gpCategoryId=27301~~gpCategoryName=WOMENS-OUTERWEAR~~ggpCategoryId=1~~ggpCategoryName=EB&#038;viewAll=null" rel="nofollow">http://www.eddiebauer.com/cata.....ewAll=null</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-military-jacket-1#post-271969 Thu, 30 Dec 2010 01:53:20 +0000 dottie 271969@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also like the jacket open. From your description, it sounds like you are not quite in love with this jacket and not feeling very fab in it. I'm no expert, so maybe I shouldn't be voting, but still having said that, I would vote nay. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-military-jacket-1#post-271961 Thu, 30 Dec 2010 01:45:21 +0000 Sihaya 271961@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the jacket open on you like others have said. I also wonder what it would look like with a darker wash denim. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-military-jacket-1#post-271930 Thu, 30 Dec 2010 00:32:34 +0000 Late Bloomer 271930@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a jacket in olive and love it. Strangely the color goes with almost everything. I guess it's being olive makes it a neutral. </p> <p>I mostly wear it unbuttoned so I can get that nice vertical color blocking which I need as I'm bigger on top. Can you put the collar back on both side so you can get a nice V at the neckline? I think you will really get a lot of wear out of this jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-military-jacket-1#post-271900 Wed, 29 Dec 2010 23:32:20 +0000 Angie 271900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's a little snug closed, Cloud. I think it's quite nice open though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-military-jacket-1#post-271859 Wed, 29 Dec 2010 22:53:27 +0000 Lisa 271859@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like open but I'm not a fan of this one closed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-military-jacket-1#post-271847 Wed, 29 Dec 2010 22:39:33 +0000 lynn 271847@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it open and it still shows where it goes in at the waist! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-military-jacket-1#post-271835 Wed, 29 Dec 2010 21:59:45 +0000 MsMary 271835@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks fantastic open. It doesn't do anything for me (or you!) closed, but is that a requirement? I have jackets I never wear closed. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/keep-or-return-military-jacket-1#post-271812 Wed, 29 Dec 2010 20:30:09 +0000 cloud9 271812@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Although loving the color on me, I am not used to my body in this "strong" look. I think it makes my upper looks more bulky... could be the fabric. It is a heavy twill material, so it doesn't quite drape well.<br /> #1 buttons 2 in the middle, seems bulky, even though it does cinches in the waist (I should have moved my arms)<br /> #2 worn open.. i think this is the best look<br /> #3 buttons bottom 3, doesn't lay flat</p> <p>so what do the experts say, yay or nay? </p>
