The silhouette is so fresh and the color is beautiful and looks really good with your skin tone. I like the red, but it doesn't seem to hang as nicely. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---bold-colored-jackets#post-682068 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 15:06:58 +0000 Reneeb 682068@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The teal jacket is stunning on you both color and fit. I like the red jacket I dont think it is too big would look great with skinny jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---bold-colored-jackets#post-682044 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 14:24:29 +0000 Queen Mum 682044@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with Angie- the teal is my favorite. I love the other blue one too.<br /> I'm not sold on the red actually....I like it better with the dress than the slacks but it seems to overwhelm you a bit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---bold-colored-jackets#post-681918 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 05:47:17 +0000 Deborah 681918@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stunning. Love them both. The teal jacket is just so cool with a hint of retro. I see what Angie is saying re the red but I do think you can work it. I see the "boyfriend" element and I don't think it's "too" long but that's just MHO:). I adore it over the dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---bold-colored-jackets#post-681894 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 04:07:21 +0000 Beth Ann 681894@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Christy: </p> <p>These colors will work beautifully into your neutral-friendly wardrobe! I, too, love the teal. To me, the red jacket seems a little stiff for a boyfriend, but doesn't have as much structure and shape as the Gibson. In full disclosure, I'm still adjusting to the new jacket silhouettes. Still, I can't help thinking that there's a perfect red jacket waiting for you out there! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---bold-colored-jackets#post-681865 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 03:22:31 +0000 KathyL 681865@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the red jacket on you! Both colors look amazing on you, but I think the red is a more versatile jacket. I think that it looks great the way you styled it with pants, but looks a tad big for the dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---bold-colored-jackets#post-681863 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 03:20:50 +0000 sarah 681863@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I like them BOTH. I love that AS jacket. And I think the bf shape of the red jacket makes it ok that it's a bit bigger. But of course Angie is the boss : ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---bold-colored-jackets#post-681809 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 02:02:04 +0000 christy 681809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The teal is a fun jacket, isn't it? I never would have looked twice if it hadn't been for Angie's picks! :)</p> <p>Angie, my thought had been that the red jacket is a bit looser, more "boyfriend" style jacket, which, now that I think about it, would also be a bit of a departure for me. If I style it with slim bottoms, do you think it would work? Or do I just look like I'm wearing a too-big jacket? Maybe I'll play around with it and really try to style it and see what we think? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---bold-colored-jackets#post-681779 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 01:32:48 +0000 Transcona Shannon 681779@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my gosh Christy - I positively ADORE that teal jacket on you. I'm crazy about this new shape in a jacket. You're making me want to buy it!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---bold-colored-jackets#post-681776 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 01:29:55 +0000 Angie 681776@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm. That's no good either :(. The red is just a tad too big for my liking. What do you think? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---bold-colored-jackets#post-681770 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 01:22:29 +0000 JR 681770@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like them all, but the red colour seems to flatter you particularly well. And for somebody who isn't styling them...</p> <p>Congrats on stepping out of your comfort zone. It's working. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---bold-colored-jackets#post-681766 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 01:20:08 +0000 christy 681766@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I did try a size down in the red, but it was a bit tight in the shoulders and I couldn't quite button it. Think this size is too big? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---bold-colored-jackets#post-681760 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 01:16:51 +0000 Angie 681760@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh yes! I got carried away with the teal that I forgot about the red.</p> <p> Did you try a size down in the red, Christy? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---bold-colored-jackets#post-681755 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 01:12:02 +0000 christy 681755@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow - thanks Angie! It is a new shape, so it will take some experimenting! How about the red? Worth keeping? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---bold-colored-jackets#post-681752 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 01:10:44 +0000 Angie 681752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>(I am such a spanner). </p> <p>The teal Amber Sun jacket is REALLY good on you. My best. Spectacular, Christy! A new shape for you. It's supposed to fit just like that. Looks so much better on you than on the model. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---bold-colored-jackets#post-681710 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 00:41:10 +0000 Parsley 681710@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they both look great, and not too bright at all. They add some nice spark to your neutrals. Keep both! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---bold-colored-jackets#post-681705 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 00:34:46 +0000 Meredith1953 681705@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the red jacket (color and cut) the teal jacket is lovely but just doesn't make as much of an impact for me, but I am basing this on picking one over the other. Otherwise, I like them both. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---bold-colored-jackets#post-681703 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 00:33:41 +0000 Keix 681703@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#2 looks too boxy to me, but #1 (and your existing #3) is fab. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---bold-colored-jackets#post-681698 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 00:31:25 +0000 Maria 681698@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the teal jacket is a little too boxy for you. I love the red with the neutral taupe </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---bold-colored-jackets#post-681693 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 00:28:56 +0000 nancylee 681693@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are all winners, Christy! They add so much fun and punch to your neutral outfits. I really love them all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---bold-colored-jackets#post-681687 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 00:24:16 +0000 Anonymous 681687@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As a fellow jacket lover, my motto is that there's no such thing as too many jackets.<br /> Your taupe outfit calms the brightness and the black and white make them fit right in. (to me black and white are both "brights") Keep and enjoy both these beauties. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr---bold-colored-jackets#post-681678 Tue, 31 Jul 2012 00:13:13 +0000 christy 681678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I went a little bit crazy stocking up on jackets at NAS this year. But I justify it because:</p> <p>1. I wear jackets pretty much year-round here in Seattle. (It's almost August, for goodness sake, and I was *freezing* today without one!)<br /> 2. I wear them almost daily to work and have begun incorporating them into my more casual wear as well</p> <p>Here are two that I need your help with because they are *entirely* out of my comfort zone - they are bright, bright, bright! (at least for a neutrals lovin' lass like myself). All of my other jackets, except for the cobalt blue below (picture #3) are firmly in camp neutral. I do not *need* either of these, so I only want to keep if a 10. I'm also clueless as to what colors really look good on me, so if either of these colors are great or awful, please let me know!! :)</p> <p>#1: Red Vince Camuto jacket<br /> #2: Teal blue Amber Sun jacket<br /> #3: My only colored jacket so far - the cobalt blue Gibson jacket</p> <p>Please note that I haven't really styled them, so if either is a keep, suggestions for styling are also appreciated! Thanks for your help ladies!! </p>
