I think they would look better with&nbsp;a little more distressing/faded, the legs tapered in slightly and rolled up more. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-bf-jeans-and-a-jacket#post-890865 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 00:49:23 +0000 CocoLion 890865@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I also feel the rise is too high on the bf jeans. &nbsp;But if you are looking for a high rise straight legged jean, the smaller pair work nicely. &nbsp;The jacket is sharp but it looks a little long in front. &nbsp;However if you wore it with lighter colored bottoms it would still work. &nbsp;With dark bottoms, the length throws off your overall proportions IMO. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-bf-jeans-and-a-jacket#post-890811 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 00:28:38 +0000 bj1111 890811@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Una, i think you're right. &nbsp;I would rather find my version of the leith pant than the bf jean. &nbsp;Not sure why.<div><br /></div><div><br /></div> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-bf-jeans-and-a-jacket#post-890798 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 00:22:57 +0000 Sarah A 890798@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like the asymetriccal hems on the jacket, esp. the sleeves but I can't tell if the rear vent is pulling or it is made to lay in an open V (does that make sense?) I think the front would look fine once adjusting for your raised shoulder. I like #1 more than #2 for the jeans, but as others have said if it doesnt feel like you, pass it up. <br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-bf-jeans-and-a-jacket#post-890795 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 00:20:35 +0000 bj1111 890795@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I'm 5'2". I think i've been buying by jackets too short for my skinnies. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-bf-jeans-and-a-jacket#post-890793 Thu, 28 Mar 2013 00:17:08 +0000 cinnamon fern 890793@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Is that the HELMUT jacket I've had my eye on? &nbsp;I like it but I don't love it - I wish it were slightly shorter. &nbsp;Now I'm wondering whether I'm too short for this jacket (I'm 5 4, I think we're the same height?) https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-bf-jeans-and-a-jacket#post-890721 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 23:13:04 +0000 Carole 890721@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I'm no expert on the BF jeans and have yet to commit myself to the look for me, but I prefer the smaller size (2), FWIW https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-bf-jeans-and-a-jacket#post-890695 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 22:44:48 +0000 Raisin 890695@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I do like the larger sized jeans, and the jacket looks good, but maybe seeing the larger size would help.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-bf-jeans-and-a-jacket#post-890637 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 21:56:50 +0000 catgirl 890637@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The jacket reminds me of the Theory Lanai blazer I have. &nbsp;I don't like the button for some reason. &nbsp;Have you tried the Theory?<br /><br /><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/theory-lanai-twill-jacket/3288350?origin=keywordsearch&amp;contextualcategoryid=0&amp;fashionColor=Black&amp;resultback=0">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/th.....ualcategor</a><br /><br />You don't sound like you want to OWN the BF look... From what you said about how you want to feel in your clothes on my thread about it, I don't think these are you, at least not this pair. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-bf-jeans-and-a-jacket#post-890633 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 21:54:46 +0000 harmonica 890633@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Jacket is great - love the simple and strong lines in front. BF's - not so sure, but I'm no expert!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-bf-jeans-and-a-jacket#post-890626 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 21:47:48 +0000 texstyle 890626@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ What is the rise on these jeans? It seems too high to me in either size. You don't have to go for low rise but maybe lower rise than these. At least I would try a lower rise as I think it would suit you better.&nbsp;I'm not sure on the jacket size - it seems a bit uneven so maybe it is pulling? https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-bf-jeans-and-a-jacket#post-890625 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 21:47:31 +0000 annagybe 890625@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Not sold on the jeans. Jacket not 100% on either. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-bf-jeans-and-a-jacket#post-890588 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 21:14:00 +0000 cciele 890588@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I'd actually like to see a size larger on the jeans! I think #2 is too tight for a BF effect, and #1 could use more bagginess. But I like baggy :)<br /><br />The jacket, does it feel tight around the shoulders? https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-bf-jeans-and-a-jacket#post-890571 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 21:01:33 +0000 Glory 890571@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Another vote for the jacket but not too sure about the jeans. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-bf-jeans-and-a-jacket#post-887591 Mon, 25 Mar 2013 00:53:50 +0000 Anonymous 887591@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Yeah, I like the larger size better but they need more taper I think. The jacket is nice. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-bf-jeans-and-a-jacket#post-887585 Mon, 25 Mar 2013 00:50:42 +0000 rae 887585@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I love the jacket! I am not sold on the jeans - first off you don't sound excited. I think the larger fit is more BF-like, but I would prefer more leg taper with that much booty surrender. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-bf-jeans-and-a-jacket#post-887583 Mon, 25 Mar 2013 00:49:50 +0000 Deborah 887583@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thanks bj, yes on closer look it does look like it's just how you are standing that is pulling the jacket in one direction at the back.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-bf-jeans-and-a-jacket#post-887571 Mon, 25 Mar 2013 00:42:40 +0000 bj1111 887571@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ the jacket is linen straight out of the box. &nbsp;and i think i'm holding my right shoulder up. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-bf-jeans-and-a-jacket#post-887567 Mon, 25 Mar 2013 00:35:48 +0000 Deborah 887567@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I have to start my saying while they look great on many Fabbers, I am not a fan of the BF jeans.&nbsp;&nbsp;Ok, now I prefer the pair in #2 because they fit better, but then Im not sure that is the point of the BJ jean??<br /><br />The jacket looks good from the front and the side, but I am just not sure from the back.&nbsp; What is the fabric? https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-bf-jeans-and-a-jacket#post-887559 Mon, 25 Mar 2013 00:27:58 +0000 kellygirl 887559@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ The BF jeans look great in the larger size. That's pretty much how mine fit. I'm not sure about the jacket. I'll defer to wiser YLF'ers than me.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-bf-jeans-and-a-jacket#post-887551 Mon, 25 Mar 2013 00:19:10 +0000 bj1111 887551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ ummm, droopy drawers is not me.<br /><br />the first photo is larger, the second is smaller. &nbsp;<br /><br />the third photo jacket --do i need to size up?
