I feel like we have to wade through so many mistakes to get to those but, when it happens, it seems so easy. Why doesn't everything just work like this?!</p> <p>I'm with the gang who likes the dress a smidge better than the other outfit, but both are fab. Your glasses are amazing. You don't look like the kooky aunt at all. You look great. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olive-bomber-2-ways---34-wiw/page/2#post-1625194 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 15:07:03 +0000 Anonymous 1625194@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks ladies- you know when you find that piece you just know will be perfect? It happens so rarely, so I was so thrilled to find that HEWI right there in front of me exactly when I wanted most. Funny how the most unexpected things can make such a difference in one's closet. </p> <p>Vivian - I did see the burgundy one - but only in my olive-tinted glasses' peripheral . I remember it being a bit of an odd shade - but that's all relative. </p> <p>Janet - congrats on your show! Hope it went well - I still love the turquoise Cuban car photo - the colours are so amazing in that one. I"ve had this scarf for a good 5 years - and go through periods where I wear it a lot, and then don't for a long time. It's one of those pieces that I have zero regret or shame for spending so much money on . There is a gorgeous pastel butterfly /skull one out right now, and I'd give anything for it- but not right now . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olive-bomber-2-ways---34-wiw/page/2#post-1625193 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 15:05:57 +0000 Janet 1625193@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE it! I am also especially a fan of the version with the dress -- I just like how the scarf takes center stage with the simple backdrop of the dress. </p> <p>Dang, I kind of want to copy this, but my dad's bomber jacket is really bulky and really RATE. I'm not sure it would have the same effect. I need to play around with it. Maybe I'll do that when I take a break from tax prep in the next couple of days. </p> <p>Oh, a friend of mine came to my art opening last night wearing your scarf, or a knockoff of it. I thought of you. It is such a cool piece. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olive-bomber-2-ways---34-wiw/page/2#post-1625161 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 13:53:13 +0000 Momo 1625161@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great looks. That scarf is the best too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olive-bomber-2-ways---34-wiw#post-1625156 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 13:43:49 +0000 Colette 1625156@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa, it looks like the jacket was made just for you. Super Fab in both outfits, really. The whole package is inspiring, hair to boots. I'm crushing on your pink streaks! Love your signature scarf! I have actually been eyeing that jacket but I just don't know that I can pull it off. But, if we made this bomber jacket the YLF club jacket, I wouldn't hesitate, and a Cosmo sounds good about now too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olive-bomber-2-ways---34-wiw#post-1625155 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 13:41:29 +0000 Murph11 1625155@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awesome, Lisa!

Now I want one. The Topshop at Nordstrom also shows a gorgeous burgundy one, almost looks coppery. Did Hudson's have that?</p> <p>You look wonderful in olive, Lisa. It's perfect with your hair and eyes. And the hair! Love the cut and the pink. It's fun and springy. You definitely don't look like a kooky middle aged broad, not by a long shot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olive-bomber-2-ways---34-wiw#post-1625147 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 12:57:07 +0000 dakotacheryl 1625147@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Seriously loving the looks you put together...I would copy in a New York minute...</p> <p>Loved the dress too!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olive-bomber-2-ways---34-wiw#post-1625131 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 11:42:32 +0000 olga 1625131@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cool outfits, very nice </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olive-bomber-2-ways---34-wiw#post-1625128 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 10:50:09 +0000 Mirjana 1625128@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Fabulous ,Fabulous ,Fabulous ..........</b><b></b></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olive-bomber-2-ways---34-wiw#post-1625117 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 06:01:29 +0000 unfrumped 1625117@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Whoa.

I love both outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olive-bomber-2-ways---34-wiw#post-1625068 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 03:21:07 +0000 Sal 1625068@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love both these - I am not in a wordy mood today (just back from a funeral sadly) but I think these are both awesome - and it is so fun to have a new wardrobe love. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olive-bomber-2-ways---34-wiw#post-1625065 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 03:08:22 +0000 Brooklyn 1625065@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>He he Lisa. When I first raised it with DH I pointed out a girl with long platinum blonde hair who had lots (and lots) of teal blue streaks. I thought it looked fab actually but it was very statement-ish and I think he was alarmed. I was trying to make him understand it was possible to do streaks in a more subtle way. So you did help :)<br /> Re the outfits I think I prefer the dress partly because the hemline of the dress is farther from the hem of the jacket than the hemline of the top. Just looks a more simple/less busy silhouette. And you do not look like a square block. But I do like the other rendition also. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olive-bomber-2-ways---34-wiw#post-1625062 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 02:59:01 +0000 Karie 1625062@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous all around! Love the pink stripe in your hair too!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olive-bomber-2-ways---34-wiw#post-1625055 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 02:24:18 +0000 Anonymous 1625055@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm so intrigued that the dress is the preferred backdrop for the jacket . As much of a colour minimalist that I am , it's the more boring of the two options to me . The bomber hits me right at my hip bones , which is fine with a drapey-er under piece like the jersey tank, but makes me feel a bit like a square block with this less than fluid dress . Huh. Interesting . I am looking forward to wearing this jacket with a couple of new denim dresses I've picked up recently . Everyone needs one of these jackets- I tell you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olive-bomber-2-ways---34-wiw#post-1625051 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 02:20:08 +0000 Anonymous 1625051@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Brooklyn - that loud thud you are hearing is my husband hitting the floor after falling out of his chair laughing at even the possibility that I provided marital assistance . Glad to hear your husb likes it - mine said nothing. Wisely .</p> <p>Elizabeth - not sure the Bay has it on their website . The Topshop at Bay Chinook is a shop within a shop , if you know what I mean . It looks like a freestanding store but is connected to The Bay and you can do returns through The Bay stores anywhere , even if they don't carry Topshop ( like our Wpg store ). The navy is BEAUTIFUL . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olive-bomber-2-ways---34-wiw#post-1625050 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 02:17:01 +0000 Maneera 1625050@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic! Its great to see your bomber in action, Lisa! I really like both outfits but prefer #1 - chic &amp; effortless. You look amazing in specs!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olive-bomber-2-ways---34-wiw#post-1625047 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 02:10:19 +0000 Elizabeth P 1625047@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh my goodness Lisa, you look fantastic!&nbsp; Loving both outfits equally.&nbsp; And navy you say... might just take a wander over to the Bay website&nbsp; :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olive-bomber-2-ways---34-wiw#post-1625041 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 01:54:32 +0000 Brooklyn 1625041@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YLF Lisa. I actually prefer the dress outfit too, for the same reasons as Smittie. The olive colour suits you.<br /> Re your hair - I love it. I have actually been talking to my DH about getting some coloured steaks and he is dubious about it. I showed him your photo and he liked it So thanks for the inspiration and marital assistance! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olive-bomber-2-ways---34-wiw#post-1625035 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 01:43:26 +0000 gradfashionista 1625035@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful bomber with a gorgeous sheen. I like it against the column of black, and the mixing of skulls and pink steaks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olive-bomber-2-ways---34-wiw#post-1625026 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 01:21:46 +0000 Anonymous 1625026@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well if you are not the rocking fashtanista..like, like the hair and scarf. &nbsp;Had to show my DH since he is a Air Force pilot..he said it's nice to know his bomber jacket it so cool. &nbsp;ha ha</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olive-bomber-2-ways---34-wiw#post-1625024 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 01:09:40 +0000 Anonymous 1625024@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Eh - the pink streak. Well - it was supposed to be a pale/greyish pink piece, which i'm hoping it will morph into over the weekend.( I just had my hair cut and recoloured yesterday .) The problem with these colours is that they don't last long at all and need to go in quite a bit brighter than you want so that they can wash out to your desired colour- so, it's brighter than I like right now so I"m ignoring it and pretending I didn't do this . I have a huge fear of looking like that kooky middle aged broad with spiky coloured hair, whacky glasses and big plastic earrings - drinking cosmos with her girlfriends . Because, I'll tell you , I 'm not that far away from that The idea is that when I style it up into a faux hawk, the pink shows, and when it's worn down and toward my face, the pink is less visible. Whatever </p> <p>Thanks for the comments re the outfits. This jacket is just the bomb, and seriously the best thing ever for all of $118 Cdn. Such good quality and with gorgeous ruched detail up the centre back seam. </p> <p>And Lisa - i have no idea what you are talking about regarding my eyes matching my sleeves - going back to look at these photos a little closer.....haha. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olive-bomber-2-ways---34-wiw#post-1625020 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 00:56:38 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1625020@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the sleeves on that bomber a lot. And it's cool how your eyes decided to match it for the photo op. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olive-bomber-2-ways---34-wiw#post-1624993 Sat, 05 Mar 2016 00:03:12 +0000 Anonymous 1624993@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello Lisa,<br /> As usual, I think you look fabulous. I actually like the knit dress outfit best because it's sleek and simple, which is a reflection of my own taste right now.<br /> I really like the lighter and brighter lipstick on you--it's nice with the olive and skulls.<br /> Sounds like you'll get three solid months of wear out of this jacket, and then at least another month is sept-oct, so a great buy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/olive-bomber-2-ways---34-wiw#post-1624984 Fri, 04 Mar 2016 23:45:53 +0000 Aida 1624984@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW does olive love you back. Looks amazing with your hair, skin, and eyes. Great bomber -- I like those silky ones best. Both outfits are super; really fun to see you in a dress, and of course I dig the pattern mix int he pants version. Plus those SPECS. Geeky fabness, And Wway to pop a pink stripe in your hair and not even mention it! Looks great ^^ </p>
