I really love the blouse on you, just as is. It looks soft and pretty but not too conservative.</p> <p>And Beth -- Tango is adorable, would he like to come over for a play date with our horses (and he's welcome to as many weed as he would like). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse/page/2#post-677236 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 23:25:54 +0000 Isabel 677236@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, that leather jacket really fits you sooooo well. KEEP.</p> <p>And the houndstooth print on you is just FABULOUS !!!!!!! AKA : KEEP. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse/page/2#post-677206 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 22:23:27 +0000 Mochi 677206@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Skipped the other posts...I love how your style is evolving, Amy...that jacket is a fantastic look for you. I sort of feel it fits, but that you'd be better off wearing it unzipped. It looks like one of the zippers in the front extends up into your lower chest, and for myself, that would make me self-conscious. But if you don't mind that, the fit looks good. </p> <p>The blouse is another nice fit. And I'm editing this to add that that is a fabulous haircut for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse/page/2#post-677192 Tue, 24 Jul 2012 21:33:28 +0000 Meredith1953 677192@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! That jacket fits you like a glove. It's really beautiful on you and I also love the houndstooth blouse on you. The shoulders don't look big to me and I don't think it is supposed to be overly fitted. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse/page/2#post-676338 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 22:01:26 +0000 Sona 676338@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just want to revisit my comments. I said I was not sure about the fit on Amy. What I meant was it actually fit her size wise very well but given that she has such an amazingly long torso I was having difficulty seeing it buttoned up with jeans as in pic 1. To my eye wearing it open with say even the houdstooth blouse would look better. So how do I cure myself of this 'poison eye'? After all short leather jackets totally rock and Amy looks GORGEOUS in it. Just trying to help retrain my eye...any pointers appreciated... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse/page/2#post-676285 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 20:28:52 +0000 Beth 676285@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love both pieces. The length of the jacket makes me think it'll look fantastic paired with dresses and skirts (see Kari's pictures of the same jacket (but in caramel) worn this way...she looks great). The shirt has lots of promise and would be awesome with cigarette pants and a pair of feminine oxfords.</p> <p>As for goats, they are intelligent and delightful creatures. Don't pick on them or Tango will be sad. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse/page/2#post-676084 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 16:19:40 +0000 JR 676084@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They're lovely. Although I'm prejudiced in favour of the blouse - I had one just like it in high school and absolutely loved it. Quite apart from my prejudice, the shoulders do not look too big to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse/page/2#post-676069 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 15:57:06 +0000 rachylou 676069@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't believe how much I love these items on you, Amy. They were made for you. With you wearing them, they have that <em>je ne sais quoi</em>. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse#post-676023 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 15:09:58 +0000 Mamapicklejuice 676023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Haha, yes, as I was typing this I thought, am I really writing "growing out" and "lovely stage" at the same time??? I think I might hate her a little bit. HA! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse#post-676009 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 14:57:43 +0000 Amy 676009@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mamapicklejuice, thanks! Yes, I'm growing my hair out...just a little bit more. I like it at about chin length. I'm convinced my stylist is a miracle-worker because I ususally feel shaggy and awful during a grow-out, but she's kept me feeling happy about my hair.</p> <p>Jamie and Shannon, I'm looking forward to seeing how you style the blouse! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse#post-675952 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 14:09:45 +0000 Transcona Shannon 675952@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow Amy - I love both of these on you! In fact, you have inspired me with this blouse and I just ordered it in petite. I love the blowsy look of it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse#post-675948 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 14:07:10 +0000 Jamie 675948@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So glad to find this thread, Amy. I bought the same blouse, and it looks pretty much the same on me in the shoulders and sleeve length. I tried to size down, but then the shoulders were too narrow and the sleeves too short, so I stuck with the original one I bought. And I love the leather jacket on you!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse#post-675939 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 14:00:26 +0000 Mamapicklejuice 675939@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I adore the jacket on you, Amy - it fits like a glove! The shirt also looks wonderful on you. I think I like your hair best of all - are you growing it out? It's at a lovely stage! :))) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse#post-675925 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 13:48:52 +0000 rae 675925@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love both! The jacket fits you soooo nicely! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse#post-675924 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 13:48:49 +0000 Angie 675924@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hubs and I are on the same wavelength :)</p> <p>I was hoping that you might try it over your dresses and skirt outfits for work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse#post-675922 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 13:46:21 +0000 Amy 675922@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, that *is* a question for me. I'm going to try wearing it over one of my dresses, and if I get a lot of raised eyebrows, then I'll save it for date night. Hubby loves it </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse#post-675912 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 13:38:27 +0000 Angie 675912@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Taxi cabs are fun :)</p> <p>I had clients who loved this leather jacket because it fit so well and the price was right. I had others who preferred buttery leather. It's still a great jacket no matter what! Can you wear it to work, Amy? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse#post-675906 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 13:34:17 +0000 Amy 675906@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Angie, it looks like we were posting at the same time.</p> <p>My mistake about the list :)</p> <p>I'm always glad when you weigh in! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse#post-675905 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 13:32:29 +0000 Amy 675905@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, gals!</p> <p>Kari, the jacket is comfortable zipped. It's not...tight, but it is form-fitting.</p> <p>Sarah, I'll have a talk with your son, lol.</p> <p>Mandipa, that's interesting. See, this looks to me like it's a little bit outside the rotator cuff, but just a smidge.</p> <p>Sunita, you and I certainly seem to be drawn to the same things! </p> <p>I'm still working on coming up with style ideas for the houndtsooth blouse. I tried pairing it with my yellow skirt and then realized I looked like a taxi cab. Funny! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse#post-675901 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 13:27:20 +0000 Angie 675901@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Amy, the leather jacket did make it onto the list! But I warned readers about the less than super soft leather. It fits you perfectly, and I love it on you. </p> <p>The blouse looks fab too! The shoulders are fine. This is not a fitted look. </p> <p>And I adore your new hair do. It is growing out beautifully. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse#post-675751 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 03:05:41 +0000 ManidipaM 675751@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Amy, I think the shoulder fit on that blouse is actually perfect! Most blouses/shirts for women actually sit inside the rotator cuff when they ought to be bang on it --- and then there's all sorts of gaping and pulling lower down and across the back if you're someone who reaches upwards or backwards often. :-/ This one: just right.</p> <p>Love the jacket too. Looks like you found a keeper!</p> <p>And may I see your hair looks adorable these days? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse#post-675750 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 03:04:18 +0000 KathyL 675750@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The jacket looks amazing on you! I think the fit is fantastic. Not a huge fan of the houndstooth shirt personally, but the fit looks good on you. It will be interesting to see how Angie styles it. I'm pretty boring and can only imagine it with black pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse#post-675741 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 02:56:20 +0000 Kari 675741@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love both, Amy. Does the jacket fit well on you while it's zipped? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse#post-675736 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 02:48:24 +0000 sarah 675736@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, both of those look terrific on you!</p> <p>I'll nag your son if you'll nag mine (about cleaning up his legos and making his bed) ; ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse#post-675734 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 02:47:50 +0000 cjh 675734@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The jacket fits great, and if you don't mind the stiffer leather, then keep! As to the blouse, I also like a more fitted shoulder (less drop) but this has minimal drop shoulder and fits so well otherwise. Maybe you should try it on with some of your slacks or skirts, and see if you have some stronger feelings one way or another.</p> <p> Personally, I'd be really tempted by this one, but my recent discovery that I don't really favor high contrast means it would not make it out of my closet much. (Now if it was navy and black, or navy and emerald green, it would be perfect.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse#post-675723 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 02:39:31 +0000 Sunita 675723@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keep the leather jacket and we'll be jacket twins twice over! I have that one too, and love it. I'm envious of how well yours fits you...the sleeves on mine are too long. I've been meaning to post pics of my leather and Lafayette jackets.</p> <p>I like the houndstooth blouse too. I passed on that one because I found it too tight in the shoulders/bust. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse#post-675678 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 01:40:50 +0000 qpswan 675678@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Dear Amy's Son,</p> <p>Your mom's new clothes fit her perfectly. Too bad that she didn't have a perfectly mowed lawn as a backdrop... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse#post-675672 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 01:36:09 +0000 K. Period. 675672@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both! Great purchases! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse#post-675665 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 01:20:41 +0000 Deborah 675665@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The jacket is fab. You must keep. The cut, length, everything works for you.</p> <p>I love the blouse but I feel the same way I did about it when Aida posted it. I like it .. but I can't put my finger on it. I suspect the styling will make it. I like your idea of putting it with a colored jacket. I think it will work beautifully once styled. </p> <p>Did Angie also get that blouse? I wonder how she will wear it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-part-2---kr-leather-jacket-and-houndstooth-blouse#post-675663 Mon, 23 Jul 2012 01:13:49 +0000 Sveta 675663@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both are keepers if you are satisfied with the quality of the leather.<br /> I could not help it : you are so pretty I cannot stand it! </p>
