Glad you went with the flax; it could become a workhorse for you! The harem pants look good too. How do they feel on? Can you scrunch them to right below the knee for a different look? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/om-linen-bomber-styled-sort-of-and-wiw#post-1264023 Thu, 29 May 2014 14:59:51 +0000 Parsley 1264023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE that first look with shades of white, Kelly! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/om-linen-bomber-styled-sort-of-and-wiw#post-1264018 Thu, 29 May 2014 14:57:30 +0000 kellygirl 1264018@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Everyone! I’m excited to play with the new jacket! It feels very me and is a nice change from a blazer.&nbsp;</p> <p>@crutcher: Thank you! I think you are right--the bomber will likely become a summer work horse :)</p> <p>@Astrid: Thanks! I thought the addition of the denim vest made the shoes more intentional. (I’m still working/thinking on my black sandal purchase--afraid to cut the tags until I try one last pair.)</p> <p>@pil: Thanks! I saw the Caslon blazer at Nordies too. It is almost the exact color. Glad that you are enjoying yours!</p> <p>@Marmee: Thank you. The H&amp;M ones are a good way to test them out. I’m pretty sure the exaggerated crotch drop of the EF ones would have put my kids over the edge. I’m going to have to work up to those.&nbsp;</p> <p>@JG: Lol! I’m taking that as a compliment :)&nbsp;</p> <p>@Caro: Thanks. Ha--“baby” harem is a great term!&nbsp;</p> <p>@Aida: Thank you. I’m glad that you think the flax color will be versatile. I am making a mental note to try it with brights too. The arms are definitely a little long on me. I think my arms are average length--no TRex action over here I could see the bomber working very well on you too.&nbsp;</p> <p>@sarah and shevia: Thanks!&nbsp;</p> <p>@Firecracker: Thank you! Yes, scrunched is definitely better but I’m happy with them down too. The lining feels like a stretchy pima and is so nice against the skin. (It’s probably poly masquerading as pima but I’m afraid to check.)</p> <p>@Denise: Thank you! I see your read my post in Anna’s thread It was a nice change!</p> <p>@jackiec: Thanks for encouraging me to try it. You must be really tall if this was too short on you. Perhaps this years version is longer? I feel like my torso is average even though my height is below average. You might want to take a look at it again.</p> <p>@Angie: Thank you so much! You made my day :)&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/om-linen-bomber-styled-sort-of-and-wiw#post-1263989 Thu, 29 May 2014 14:24:38 +0000 Angie 1263989@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am always in awe of how crisp, polished&nbsp;and neat your RATE looks are. You have incredible casual style, Kelly. WOW. The first all white look launched me into orbit.&nbsp;</p> <p>Killer to the power of Killer.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/om-linen-bomber-styled-sort-of-and-wiw#post-1263987 Thu, 29 May 2014 14:23:54 +0000 jackiec 1263987@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Omg LOvE it all!!! Great buy on the bomber! It looks amazing!</p> <p>I'm travelling &amp; between flights (in Seattle ) but had to log in to say AWESOME! I love your casual looks. Wish that bomber worked for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/om-linen-bomber-styled-sort-of-and-wiw#post-1263805 Thu, 29 May 2014 04:52:53 +0000 CocoLion 1263805@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The outfits you posted with the OM jacket are some of your best looks ever! &nbsp;And I love today's WIW. &nbsp;No wonder you were complimented at Nordies! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/om-linen-bomber-styled-sort-of-and-wiw#post-1263717 Thu, 29 May 2014 03:01:33 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1263717@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow--these are great outfits. The bomber looks fantastic with light and dark; stellar styling. The light one is really stunning; the other is more casual but also one to repeat. The maxi is super cute the way you're wearing it, too. </p> <p>P.S. I prefer the look of the jacket sleeves scrunched, but they are also great down if you need the warmth. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/om-linen-bomber-styled-sort-of-and-wiw#post-1263706 Thu, 29 May 2014 02:51:52 +0000 Jaime 1263706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the bomber with the sleeves scrunched and especially with the lighter outfit. Fantastic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/om-linen-bomber-styled-sort-of-and-wiw#post-1263699 Thu, 29 May 2014 02:47:31 +0000 sarah 1263699@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE the bomber with the sleeves scrunched. My how that makes such a difference. Great harems! And I hope you can make that skirt work length-wise. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/om-linen-bomber-styled-sort-of-and-wiw#post-1263533 Thu, 29 May 2014 00:03:41 +0000 Aida 1263533@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The flax bomber is super! It looks awesome with the white-out looks. Will also be fun with darker bottoms, and also with more saturated brights when you feel like wearing them. Slightly long in the sleeve you say, hmmm that means it'd probably work for me and my long arms... That maxi is truly long! How fun ^^ If it came in more cheerful colors I'd totally snap one up. LOVE the outfit for today, I'd never have known those were harems if you hadn't said so. Filing away as cropped vest inspiration! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/om-linen-bomber-styled-sort-of-and-wiw#post-1263434 Wed, 28 May 2014 22:06:39 +0000 Caro in Oz 1263434@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YLF. The bomber looks great as do the baby harems </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/om-linen-bomber-styled-sort-of-and-wiw#post-1263432 Wed, 28 May 2014 21:57:53 +0000 JG 1263432@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in every picture. I'm trying to resist the impulse to buy all 3 items. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/om-linen-bomber-styled-sort-of-and-wiw#post-1263413 Wed, 28 May 2014 21:35:21 +0000 Marmee 1263413@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the bomber Kelly, and the harem pants look stupendous on you! Really, i think I need the h&amp;m version. They are understated but perfectly drapey. And I really like that last top (under the vest. ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/om-linen-bomber-styled-sort-of-and-wiw#post-1263412 Wed, 28 May 2014 21:33:51 +0000 pil 1263412@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The flax is a great color, if I do say so. I copied Texstyle's Caslon linen unlined blazer in flax last year and got lots of wear from it. Love the way you have styled the skirt and harem pants with the denim vest. Have fun at the carpool! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/om-linen-bomber-styled-sort-of-and-wiw#post-1263399 Wed, 28 May 2014 21:21:12 +0000 Astrid 1263399@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE the bomber. And the harem pants look great too. I really like the matchy color with the denim vest and sandals in your WIW outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/om-linen-bomber-styled-sort-of-and-wiw#post-1263394 Wed, 28 May 2014 21:14:26 +0000 crutcher 1263394@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great look...I do like the bomber jacket...the flax color is perfect...You will get a lot of wear with that one...<br />The harem pants are just enough to be interesting but not long enough to be really noticed...If that makes sense...I do like the look on you... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/om-linen-bomber-styled-sort-of-and-wiw#post-1263387 Wed, 28 May 2014 21:05:07 +0000 kellygirl 1263387@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Tex! LOL--nice pun! I'm really pleased with the bomber fit. It's so comfy and not at all constricting. The lining is soft too. The sleeves are a wee bit long but they scrunch up easily--unlike the Gap bomber I tried. The skirt is very stretchy and comfy--will be a nice change from BF jeans all of the time. IKWYM about the harem pants--never say never. I didn't think I'd ever try these again.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/om-linen-bomber-styled-sort-of-and-wiw#post-1263382 Wed, 28 May 2014 21:01:52 +0000 texstyle 1263382@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The bomber is the bomb on you! Sorry, couldn't resist. I love it. Love that color with white and I agree it can work with darker colors too. The skirt looks great too and I'm imagining how comfortable it must feel. I haven't quite adjusted my eye for harem pants yet but these do look really great on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/om-linen-bomber-styled-sort-of-and-wiw#post-1263375 Wed, 28 May 2014 20:56:53 +0000 kellygirl 1263375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for your help earlier! I'm already home and getting ready to go out to carpool but snapped a few pics first.&nbsp;I think this flax color works better for me than white for how I plan on wearing it. (The SA said she has only seen it in flax or olive at her store.)&nbsp;My goal was to find a topper that works with white/light bottoms. I think it will work with dark bottoms too--although probably not with the ones shown. </p> <p>In case any of you are interested, I'm also showing the Halogen high/low maxi which Angie featured in her Top Picks. It's too long with flat sandals but I can roll the waistband down and it seems to lay just fine.&nbsp;</p> <p>The last pic is my WIW. H&amp;M "harem" pants. They aren't as exaggerated as the EF but I wasn't ready to take the plunge on those yet. We'll see how much wear these get first. Thanks for looking.&nbsp; </p>
