I'm always surprised at how versatile pink is. Great with the jeans and gray booties. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851822 Sun, 08 Oct 2017 22:45:04 +0000 Deborah 1851822@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>lol, yes I do!&nbsp; It's Laura Ashly and it was a hand me down from my sister who bought it and didn't wear it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851812 Sun, 08 Oct 2017 22:15:15 +0000 JAileen 1851812@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Meredith, Shevia, thank you so much.</p> <p>Deborah, thank you. Are you sure you have a blazer like this? It's not black. :)</p> <p>Unfrumped, Jenn, I think the unbuttoned look is better, but buttoned does feel more "secure", even if it looks weirder! (Don't worry, I'll wear it unbuttoned.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851734 Sun, 08 Oct 2017 16:18:30 +0000 Jenn 1851734@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#2 looks great. Like others, I prefer the jacket unbuttoned, but this is something I struggle with, because I kind of like the "covered" feeling of having a blazer buttoned. For me, that works a bit better with one-button blazers, which feel more casual when buttoned than the two-button ones. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851665 Sun, 08 Oct 2017 12:48:24 +0000 unfrumped 1851665@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree unbuttoned is best. I don’t think I ever button.<br /> You can’t go wrong with either scarf, but the more subdued second one really lets the blazer be the focal point and yet ties things together perfectly with the jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851611 Sun, 08 Oct 2017 04:33:26 +0000 Deborah 1851611@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, I have a very similar pink Blazer! &nbsp;Maybe i need to get it out:) &nbsp;I like this on you and I wouldn't worry about buttoning it. &nbsp;I think a blazer looks best unbuttoned Nicely thrifted x </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851574 Sun, 08 Oct 2017 02:08:37 +0000 Jaime 1851574@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your pink blazer! #2 is my favorite. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851516 Sat, 07 Oct 2017 22:04:59 +0000 Meredith 1851516@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it unbuttoned with the scarves! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851513 Sat, 07 Oct 2017 21:58:12 +0000 JAileen 1851513@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kelly, thank you. I didn't know the combo was modern! Grey is what I have, mostly. I went crazy when I went grey, and have a good assortment of grey clothing and footwear.</p> <p>Karen, thanks. A lot of people thought the jacket was a mistake. After seeing how uptight (that's probably the best description) I look, I think I'll wear it unbuttoned. The booties are Ariat, believe it or not. I love the color and pointiness. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851462 Sat, 07 Oct 2017 18:28:18 +0000 karen13 1851462@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love both outfits, and the boots are so good. Your sleeve alteration just made this work so well - I didn't love it the first time you showed it and now I do. It fits really well, so the buttoning looks fine, but the look is better unbuttoned. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851442 Sat, 07 Oct 2017 16:48:46 +0000 kellygirl 1851442@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic outfit! I love the blazer with those grey booties and grey scarf. So pretty and modern! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851421 Sat, 07 Oct 2017 15:23:58 +0000 JAileen 1851421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jenni, I'm glad you don't hate the jacket anymore. These two scarves, but especially the second one aren't really for warmth, just for color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851379 Sat, 07 Oct 2017 09:24:58 +0000 Jenni NZ 1851379@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm warming up slowly to that pink blazer...the first scarf colours are terrific with it. And the second scarf is really pretty too. I'm not a scarf person and only really wear my grandfather's cream knitted one in the depths of winter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851378 Sat, 07 Oct 2017 09:23:29 +0000 JAileen 1851378@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thea, thank you. I knit the scarf in the third picture years ago. </p> <p>Janet, thanks. This color combo is new to me. I certainly have plenty of grey to try with the jacket!</p> <p>Joy, thanks. Years ago I had a couple blazers. One was beautiful bold plaid blazer in earth tones. The other one was navy. I donated both though. They were both big loose jackets with big shoulders. I loved the plaid fabric, but not the shape. It looks like you had a perfect day for a hike. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851362 Sat, 07 Oct 2017 05:01:59 +0000 Anonymous 1851362@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your pink blazer! The beauty of a blazer is that no one would guess that you are wearing a gardening tee under it. I hiked and birded in a navy blazer this morning. Under it was a striped tee to wear for cleaning house. Bottoms were blue jeans with hiking sneakers.<br /> Maybe you need more blazers. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851340 Sat, 07 Oct 2017 03:07:58 +0000 Janet 1851340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pink and grey are so great together. Looks like a perfect fit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851334 Sat, 07 Oct 2017 02:32:37 +0000 Thea 1851334@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits. Unbuttoned looks much more comfortable. I like both outfits (I love scarves) but like #3 with the blue slightly better. Have fun exploring adding pink to your wardrobe! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851329 Sat, 07 Oct 2017 02:17:21 +0000 JAileen 1851329@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>UmmLila, thanks. We have a few asters, but they've already bloomed. I've been cutting back yarrow, lavender, coneflowers. My husband wants to leave everything for the birds, but the lavender gets squashed in the snow, and the yarrow does so well here that it's taking over, so I don't want to leave the flowers. As for the coneflowers, I'm cutting the flower heads from the stems and tossing them back in the garden. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851314 Sat, 07 Oct 2017 01:30:57 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1851314@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i never button blazers. I like this color. I suspect it looks good on you. Do you have any asters in the garden? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851300 Sat, 07 Oct 2017 01:08:27 +0000 JAileen 1851300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Emily, I think you're right about not buttoning it. It looks too formal or weird or something.</p> <p>Suz, thank you for reminding me of a graphic tee. I have one or two that might work with this jacket that I forgot about.</p> <p>The Cat, thank you. I also thrifted the scarf in the first two pictures. </p> <p>Dianna, Sterling, thank you very much. Pink is new for me. I'm still testing the waters.</p> <p>Lisa, thank you. I buttoned because they were all buttoned in Angie's ensemble. But now I realize they were pictures of the jackets, not pictures of people wearing the jackets!</p> <p>Joyce, thank you. I have another wool jacket, but it's not a man's style jacket so I don't think it's technically a blazer. And it's pumpkin colored!</p> <p>Angie, thank you. I love the grey booties. They're the same color as my hair. As I said in your blog post, I wear a scarf, jacket and jeans all the time when it's cooler, but this is the only blazer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851279 Fri, 06 Oct 2017 23:35:07 +0000 Angie 1851279@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those grey booties are gorgeous with the pink blazer, Janet. And the scarf ties it all together. I like #2 best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851278 Fri, 06 Oct 2017 23:31:56 +0000 Joyce B 1851278@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is a very nice blazer. You say you only have one, but it’s a very good one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851262 Fri, 06 Oct 2017 22:34:00 +0000 Anonymous 1851262@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like this on you - the fit is perfect. I don't think I've ever buttoned a blazer in my life.  The second scarf is bang-on here too.  Great scores! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851252 Fri, 06 Oct 2017 21:57:47 +0000 Anonymous 1851252@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pink is perfect. &nbsp;I love it. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851249 Fri, 06 Oct 2017 21:55:36 +0000 Dianna 1851249@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pink and gray are one of my favorite color combos ever, and you wear it very well.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851241 Fri, 06 Oct 2017 20:25:03 +0000 The Cat 1851241@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your pink blazer looks great with the blue and grey items in your wardrobe. And I love how the pretty scarf in #1 and #2 echoes the colour of your blazer. The grey T-shirt looks like a perfect underlayer.</p> <p>I, too, prefer to wear my blazers unbuttoned. And I find that wearing a scarf or shawl often creates enough warmth anyway. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851235 Fri, 06 Oct 2017 20:13:36 +0000 Suz 1851235@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like it on you and pink and grey is classic! I'm fond of heather grey underlayers with my grey hair and wear a grey graphic tee quite a lot under a blazer.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851233 Fri, 06 Oct 2017 20:05:28 +0000 Emily K 1851233@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>To me, a blazer, buttoned, always feels wrong &nbsp;I especially like the third pic--the blue tones in the scarf kinda create a column of color with the jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-only-blazer-is-pink#post-1851228 Fri, 06 Oct 2017 19:11:12 +0000 JAileen 1851228@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Until I thrifted this pink blazer, I didn't have a blazer. It's warmer now and this jacket would be fine in the morning when it's still chilly. Having it buttoned seems wrong, though. </p> <p>I'm actually wearing a heather grey short sleeve tee. I think of these tees as gym wear. But I'm going to be doing garden cleanup this afternoon. </p>
