I just love #3 and 5.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-bomber-and-dresses/page/2#post-886369 Sat, 23 Mar 2013 07:08:17 +0000 Day Vies 886369@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Ah, Ingunn you make it look <i>so easy</i>. I love them all. WOW -- I swear you have the most ready-for-anything, always appropriate,&nbsp;go-to wardrobe. I want to be like you when I grow up! BTW #1 is my favorite.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-bomber-and-dresses/page/2#post-886368 Sat, 23 Mar 2013 07:05:08 +0000 Ingunn 886368@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thank you, Aida, for your detailed comment. I couldn't agree more. Sometimes an outfit looks better in the mirror than in the photos. That was the case with #3. When seeing the pictures, I wanted to remove the scarf like you suggested. It is probably worthwhile to play&nbsp;with outfit photos, even without posting pics anywhere,&nbsp;to learn how the outfits look from a distance in regards of colors, values and proportions. I started doing this last Summer, and I've really learned a lot from it - in addition to YLF feedback, of course, which is very valuable. I think #5 will remain an experiment, because while adding black footwear will make it work, I would have to keep the jacket on all the time, since removing it would make the shoes seem off. I have other toppers that are better for this combination.&nbsp;<br /><br />Jonesy, thanks! The blue dress is new, and I love it already. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-bomber-and-dresses/page/2#post-886053 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 23:07:38 +0000 Jonesy 886053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ This looks fab! My fave outfit is the one with the blue dress, though I couldn't pinpoint why exactly...<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-bomber-and-dresses/page/2#post-886024 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 22:53:55 +0000 Aida 886024@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Very well executed exercise Ingunn, and that bomber is fab on you (nothing off about it to my eye). I am particularly fond of #1 and #2, I sure hope you have some fabulous events to attend where you can wear those. #3 also works well, though I'd like to see the scarf a little looser around your neck or altogether removed; you lose some of the cool bomber neckline the way it is now, but I guess I'm in the minority on this. The oxfords are super with that one. #4 and #5 look great, though I think you could add a sparkly pendant (or a long gauzy scarf) to #5 to punch it up a bit. #6 left looks fab, #6 right does feel a little heavy with the light colors, but you can easily solve that by swapping to black footwear https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-bomber-and-dresses/page/2#post-885942 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 21:49:25 +0000 merwoman 885942@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ What a great&nbsp; find - and in your own closet no less! You look incredible - #3 knocks it out of the park for me. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-bomber-and-dresses/page/2#post-885929 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 21:40:39 +0000 Saretta 885929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ All of these outfits are FABULOUS. You definitely have the RIGHT shape for this bomber https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-bomber-and-dresses#post-885877 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 21:09:14 +0000 Ingunn 885877@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thanks, I'm very happy that you liked it! I'm also glad to hear that you find the fit ok. I guess this is a look that had to grow on me. I have used the bomber occasionally since I bought it, but I suspect it will get a lot more wear this year. It is from F/W 2010, I think, and it is by Noa Noa.<br /><br />Liz, my pumps are from Clarks (Anika Kendra), and the boots were bought in Paris in a little boutiqe in Montmartre last Fall. I don't remember the brand, sorry!<br /><br />Harmonica, I'm actually considering that now. It could really be something.<br /><br />Ornella, the dress in #2 is color blocked, it is not two pieces.<br /><br />Speaking of cold Spring - we've had freezing cold winds all week, so a black, lined&nbsp;bomber is not too heavy at all at the moment. But I'm with you all the way in wanting to light up in Spring, Angie, so I guess I must wear this jacket with a lot of white to make it work! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-bomber-and-dresses#post-885781 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 20:24:00 +0000 Inge 885781@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I can't believe you had this hanging in your closet all along, waiting for the bomber jacket trend to become big this year:-) It is perfect on you, Ingunn, and I too love it with all the outfits you created. Versatile and fabulous! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-bomber-and-dresses#post-885776 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 20:19:08 +0000 catgirl 885776@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You are my new style idol! &nbsp;The way you look so confident is just amazing. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-bomber-and-dresses#post-885682 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 19:14:53 +0000 Missey 885682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You have an excellent eye for combining pieces to create outfits that are timeless and chic...great inspiration!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-bomber-and-dresses#post-885655 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 18:48:01 +0000 harmonica 885655@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ PERFECTION! These outfits are just awesome! Would the bomber accompany LBD in April? <br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-bomber-and-dresses#post-885654 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 18:47:07 +0000 Sona 885654@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ now that's how one done's a bomber over a dress!

So cool that you'll be able to wear it "on trend," as it were. I think the length and fit works really well for you. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-bomber-and-dresses#post-885514 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 16:25:18 +0000 Angie 885514@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ WOW!<br /><br />The proportions here are so fresh and modern! All outfits are beautiful, Ingunn. Well done :)<br /><br />I know what you mean about a black leather bomber jacket feeling all "heavy" for Spring. I personally like to lighten up a lot from March to August - in colour that is. Although the weight here is spot on because Spring is freezing! I need to wear white jeans and light footwear in order to feel fab in black leather jackets in Spring time.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-bomber-and-dresses#post-885492 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 16:06:21 +0000 Liz A. 885492@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I'm partial to number 1 and 4. &nbsp;I need your shoe collection. &nbsp;Where did you get those? https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-bomber-and-dresses#post-885477 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 15:39:42 +0000 texstyle 885477@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I got so wrapped up in the fabness, I forgot to say that I love #3 also&nbsp; - you have done such an inspired job of showcasing this, all the outfits are very nice. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-bomber-and-dresses#post-885463 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 15:27:36 +0000 Carole 885463@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Way to rescue an orphan, Ingunn! I love all your examples and think this works so well with everything here, my favorite is 3. I just love the pattern of the sheath with the jacket. Well done! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-bomber-and-dresses#post-885456 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 15:17:35 +0000 Thistle 885456@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Love #5!&nbsp; I like them all, but this is really my favorite.&nbsp; Great way to incorporate Angie's post. It looks fresh to my eye. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-bomber-and-dresses#post-885454 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 15:17:01 +0000 Jules 885454@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I like the ones with pattern best, specifically 3 &amp; 4, or 2 with the colour break at the waist, because they have more interest to my eye than the monochromatic column looks.&nbsp;But I don't see a fit issue at all. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-bomber-and-dresses#post-885452 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 15:16:24 +0000 hedgiehog 885452@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Ingunn, Well done! I really like the differnrt ways you've styled the jacket. I can't believe you waited so long to wear it....it looks really good on you.My favourite looks are 1, 2, 3, 4 and the first of #6. To my eye, it works with the lighter skirt you featured in your Redbook capsule but, like you, I'm not so sure about the floral skirt. The skirt in # 3 looks amazing on you....what a funky, chic pattern. The jacket doesn't look off on you at all; I think it looks lovely. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-bomber-and-dresses#post-885449 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 15:11:11 +0000 rute 885449@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Gorgeous!! Love 3! I might copy that one! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-bomber-and-dresses#post-885440 Fri, 22 Mar 2013 15:00:34 +0000 MsMary 885440@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ These are all STELLAR! &nbsp;My super fave is #3 (i love the scarf!),&nbsp;but I love them all. &nbsp;It doesn't look too long to me at all.
