I like the first one for winter for sure and definitely unbuttoned. I LOVE the second one on you! So cute for spring and summer. What a great shopper you are! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kelly-goes-thrifting#post-586142 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 08:19:34 +0000 ManidipaM 586142@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Late to be useful, but wonder if you kept the pink? Loved it with the dress! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kelly-goes-thrifting#post-586079 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 04:32:16 +0000 Scarlet 586079@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lately I notice I am very critical in the morning, but I am just trying to be honest and to aim for the stars. I like the first one from the front unbuttoned, but from the back I think it is just a tad too short. I like the idea of the pink one, but in this case I think it is a tad too long, and I feel like the arms could be cut slimmer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kelly-goes-thrifting#post-585995 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 02:23:13 +0000 Suz 585995@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm late to the party but I'll be happy if you kept the pink one! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kelly-goes-thrifting#post-585919 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 01:22:06 +0000 celia 585919@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I come late but hope you kep h second one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kelly-goes-thrifting#post-585901 Tue, 03 Apr 2012 01:04:30 +0000 Jaime 585901@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the pink one on you.

Beautiful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kelly-goes-thrifting#post-585856 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 23:54:33 +0000 Anonymous 585856@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The pink one looks perfect for spring and summer and a good color on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kelly-goes-thrifting#post-585817 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 22:45:24 +0000 catgirl 585817@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The first one seems a bit bulky around the collar - as a fellow IT, that's how I would feel, anyway. It's a lovely jacket though. </p> <p>The second one is total summer fun! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kelly-goes-thrifting#post-585812 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 22:40:41 +0000 kellygirl 585812@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the great feedback! It's so helpful to have a second, third, etc. set of eyes. In addition to your comments, I re-read Shannon's thrifting tips and decided that the mushroom jacket wasn't something I would have paid full price for. It fit well but too closely to layer over anything but a tee which would make it less than versatile for winter/fall. </p> <p>So anyway, the jacket has been returned and I now have a few different items to share. Thanks again for all of your help! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kelly-goes-thrifting#post-585796 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 22:21:14 +0000 Polly (thunalata) 585796@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great finds!</p> <p>I love 1 more than 2 but not sure why. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kelly-goes-thrifting#post-585750 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 21:06:29 +0000 CocoLion 585750@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am seeing the grey jacket with pants, just feels a little large-scaled for skirts or dresses. Or maybe it will be too large scaled with pants too. But I see it has potential and the fit is good.</p> <p>Second jacket is a no-brainer for spring. Will look cute with everything! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kelly-goes-thrifting#post-585745 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 20:57:15 +0000 Mona 585745@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am totally in love with the pink jacket. This is definitely a keep. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kelly-goes-thrifting#post-585688 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 19:10:15 +0000 ironkurtin 585688@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Funny, I must be the only one to say nay on #2. Great color, but not having a collar would make me nuts.</p> <p>I own a few things like #1 and wear them *a lot* so I say, if the fabric feels nice, it's a keeper - when worn with a scarf! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kelly-goes-thrifting#post-585686 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 19:00:17 +0000 Lisa 585686@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 isn't bad but not my favorite style on you. The collar is a bit large on your frame. #2 is a nice coral color on my screen. The fit looks good too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kelly-goes-thrifting#post-585679 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 18:44:44 +0000 texstyle 585679@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The pink one is really nice on you! #1 is okay. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kelly-goes-thrifting#post-585666 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 18:35:47 +0000 Anonymous 585666@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they both really have potential at 10 bucks a pop! The first one looks bulky and warm. Do you think you could wear it in fall/winter? It would look good with black and animal print. Is the second one really bright? It reads like a very soft coral on my monitor. I like it a lot with the dress, and if it's a color you wouldn't normally wear, it might be fun to try with red or orange jeans in a tonal outfit. Fun finds! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kelly-goes-thrifting#post-585624 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 17:51:54 +0000 jayne 585624@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the pink one and it fits you well</p> <p>I think the first one is nice but it is so thick and seems to overwhelm you a bit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kelly-goes-thrifting#post-585621 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 17:50:03 +0000 Parsley 585621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not in love with the first one- it's something about how the big lapels crowd up around your face, and the color- I can't put my finger on exactly why.</p> <p>The second one, though, is darling on you! The collarless style is very flattering, and the color just makes you glow. That one's a keeper! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kelly-goes-thrifting#post-585616 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 17:46:56 +0000 Isabel 585616@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, you really did well. I love them both. I have a knit, navy blazer and I love it. It is a nice dress up instead of sweatshirt, when you need it and really great in the Fall. </p> <p>That pink is great on you. I just LOVE it with the dress !!! Very, very nice. And it looks to me as if you don't always have to stick to retail ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kelly-goes-thrifting#post-585609 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 17:41:20 +0000 christieanne 585609@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Actually, I like them for casual wear. I loved my knit military jackets (I have a red and a black) all Fall for layering - so cozy and easy to wear with jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kelly-goes-thrifting#post-585605 Mon, 02 Apr 2012 17:38:51 +0000 kellygirl 585605@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have to admit, it was not planned. I found myself with 20 minutes to kill before picking up DD. I probably paid too much but there is a 30 day return for store credit. What do you think? Both jackets were $9.99. </p> <p>Pic.1) H&amp;M double breasted knit jacket. Fills the hole left by the one I returned. I look like a stuffed sausage buttoned up but I like it unbuttoned. </p> <p>Pic.2) Gap collarless neon pink jacket. </p> <p>Should I stick to retail? All opinions welcome : ) </p>
