You look radiant in Gorton's Fisherman yellow. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mo-vember-jacket-challenge-day-4-rugby-ralph-lauren#post-766762 Tue, 06 Nov 2012 02:56:07 +0000 rae 766762@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Marley, I'm thinking next week or the week after for the haircut -- eep!</p> <p>Una, I think that way, too, sometimes - if I regret tossing this, I will never find one like it again EVAR! I should cut that out. </p> <p>Mo, good to hear you are slowing down. Purging is good, of course, but I can get carried away sometimes... like I start to feel like purging and having a small wardrobe is so "IN" right now that I shouldn't have so much stuff. Tricky to find the balance, I guess. </p> <p>Beth Ann, SO sad to hear about the fate of your jacket (and the mouse). On the bright side, it was not one of your current faves! :T </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mo-vember-jacket-challenge-day-4-rugby-ralph-lauren#post-766719 Tue, 06 Nov 2012 02:16:51 +0000 Beth Ann 766719@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae: Love this jacket! A nice dose of color is welcome on rainy days.</p> <p>I say keep the jackets that make you happy, even those in "light rotation," unless you're plainly running out of space.</p> <p>This week, a mouse in my laundry room ate one of my stored jackets -- a tryolean number by Ann Taylor. Emerald boucle. Sigh. Of course, it was two sizes too small. Maybe the critter (now passed) was trying to teach me a valuable lesson! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mo-vember-jacket-challenge-day-4-rugby-ralph-lauren#post-766554 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 23:33:45 +0000 Mo 766554@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae, I love the outdoor setting! So much better for your shots. I hear you on not purging just for the sake of it. I am slowing down on being purge happy with things like jackets and shoes.<br /> Marley, I am doing my own personal challenge this month to wear all my accessories I brought to FL with me. Rae and I think Una are doing a similar thing with their light jackets. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mo-vember-jacket-challenge-day-4-rugby-ralph-lauren#post-766506 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 22:25:00 +0000 catgirl 766506@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I totally know what you mean. Many of my skirts were being kept for their "emotional" value -- some were items I scored thrifting, others just "works of art" in my mind. It was like a curated collection that I admired and loved. Then one day I was just over it and out they've gone. </p> <p>Ironically, I had the hardest time parting with the thrifted items, which were one of a kind and felt like windfalls. The retail items were easier to part with knowing I'd get some return from consignment. </p> <p>I think this jacket is fab on you and you love it, so enjoy it. When it's time for things to go, you will know. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mo-vember-jacket-challenge-day-4-rugby-ralph-lauren#post-766495 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 22:17:22 +0000 Caro in Oz 766495@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Even if you don't purge any of your jackets I still think this is a worthwhile exercise, you are showing us how jackets are part of your signature style &amp; how much fun they can be, I love this look on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mo-vember-jacket-challenge-day-4-rugby-ralph-lauren#post-766391 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 20:42:11 +0000 rachylou 766391@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like this look. Very "California fresh." Sporty, unfussy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mo-vember-jacket-challenge-day-4-rugby-ralph-lauren#post-766244 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 18:17:52 +0000 Marley 766244@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the way you paired the oversized jacket with the oversized jeans - that's something I want to learn how to do. I think the jacket is a great addition to your collection. Great color and such a fun style - it just has your name all over it! Also, can't wait to see your haircut! When's it going to happen?</p> <p>Also - what is the Mo-vember jacket challenge? I must have missed that thread! I'm assuming that Mo started it, right? Gonna' have to track that girl down! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mo-vember-jacket-challenge-day-4-rugby-ralph-lauren#post-766228 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 18:04:01 +0000 A.Kiernan 766228@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love that jacket! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mo-vember-jacket-challenge-day-4-rugby-ralph-lauren#post-766227 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 18:02:00 +0000 Kiwichik 766227@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this jacket too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mo-vember-jacket-challenge-day-4-rugby-ralph-lauren#post-766199 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 17:36:05 +0000 Transcona Shannon 766199@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another jacket lover here - definitely the most numerous item in my closet.</p> <p>Love this jacket on you with that beautiful, bright yellow colour and it pairs perfectly with the jeans and booties. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mo-vember-jacket-challenge-day-4-rugby-ralph-lauren#post-766190 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 17:28:30 +0000 Suz 766190@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this is 100% FAB! Adore this look and would love to copy somehow. I also relate to your difficulty with purging jackets. I have a really tough time with that as well. I just adore each and every one...I purge only to replace immediately anyway! </p> <p>You are going to LOVE short hair. Honestly. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mo-vember-jacket-challenge-day-4-rugby-ralph-lauren#post-766172 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 17:14:02 +0000 Angie 766172@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER</p> <p>Great to see your outfits in natural daylight </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mo-vember-jacket-challenge-day-4-rugby-ralph-lauren#post-766168 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 17:10:01 +0000 Sara L. 766168@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the jacket! With your hair pulled back like this, the collar looks fine. When my hair was long, I had a problem with collars too. I felt like all the hair and a collar made some outfits feel too busy and messy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mo-vember-jacket-challenge-day-4-rugby-ralph-lauren#post-766157 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 17:04:36 +0000 Raisin 766157@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That jacket is super cute! The way you were describing it, I was thinking, ugh, this won't be pretty, but so far I think I think I like it the best! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mo-vember-jacket-challenge-day-4-rugby-ralph-lauren#post-766119 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 16:36:00 +0000 TraceyLiz65 766119@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the yellow jacket and I really relate to the difficulty in purging jackets. They are like art, well said. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mo-vember-jacket-challenge-day-4-rugby-ralph-lauren#post-766101 Mon, 05 Nov 2012 16:16:10 +0000 rae 766101@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>After yesterday's car show fun, I still had to go into work for a short shift, so I styled up another jacket for my wear-them-all challenge. </p> <p>I had bought this baby a while back - without the YLF forum's consent! Actually, I think most of you pretty much hated it... Paddington Bear... Gorton's Fisherman... well, all that still sounded pretty good to me. o_0 </p> <p>So, love it or hate it, here's my yellow jacket with huge lobster clasps. I actually really dig the oversized fit that is so different from my other jackets. Feels good with BF jeans! The part I wasn't 100% in love with was the brown collar, which looked weird with my hair down, but I think it will look much better once I cut my hair. </p> <p>It is becoming apparent that it will be *really* hard for me to cull jackets - in many ways they are not just wardrobe items but a Collection unto themselves. The little details on them make them like art to me. I don't know if I can purge any significant amount just for the sake of purging.</p> <p>In other news, I'm really enjoying these outdoors pics! Thank goodness my neighbors had this new wall built, so that I can set my camera where no camera could be set before!</p> <p>Yellow Rugby Ralph Lauren jacket - Ebay<br /> "Sexy Boyfriend" jeans - Gap<br /> Report "Marks" boots - Amazon<br /> Francesco Biasia bag - Ebay<br /> White watch - Big Lots </p>
