Good idea on the lighter shoes for the lighter top. I got these loafers last March, they fit the bill perfectly for a streamlined loafer but with a hint of "penny loafer" in a brand that almost always works for me. </p> <p><b>Sara</b>, thanks, and yes I too like this jacket with the blue denims. It's a little different.</p> <p><b>Elizabeth P</b>, I think I agree that the grey top is not as good as most of the black or black/white ones. I find that grey blouse is a lot harder to style than most other grey things I wear, and I'm not quite sure why. Something about that specific version of grey.....&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks <b>Jaileen</b>...and before you give me too much credit for avoiding black....I already have a black one in a more classic shape :-). These days I only wear the black one as part of my concert performance capsule (solid black uniform). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/petite-velvet-blazer-red-black#post-2078813 Thu, 21 Nov 2019 00:02:09 +0000 JAileen 2078813@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This looks great on you. &nbsp;I’m glad you got red and not black. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/petite-velvet-blazer-red-black#post-2078805 Wed, 20 Nov 2019 22:26:37 +0000 Style Fan 2078805@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful jacket, Chris.&nbsp; Looks amazing on you.&nbsp; Works so well in your wardrobe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/petite-velvet-blazer-red-black#post-2078790 Wed, 20 Nov 2019 19:23:27 +0000 Elizabeth P 2078790@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>This is great on you! <br /></div><div>I"m with Angie on the lace top that is going back... it's a great combo.&nbsp; But if it's not you, it's not you.&nbsp; <br /></div><div>Least fav is #4...not sure if it's the grey, or the length of the top (I prefer when they aren't the same length as the jacket) or what.&nbsp; But this jacket will be so versatile!</div><div><br /></div><div>I got a navy one recently - MUST get it out to play.&nbsp; I need to get over thinking of velvet as dressy/festive.<br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/petite-velvet-blazer-red-black#post-2078764 Wed, 20 Nov 2019 16:07:55 +0000 Anonymous 2078764@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow - just as I imagined ! &nbsp;I love the waist-nipping cut too - very flattering . &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/petite-velvet-blazer-red-black#post-2078759 Wed, 20 Nov 2019 15:43:40 +0000 Christina F. 2078759@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG, stunning!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/petite-velvet-blazer-red-black#post-2078758 Wed, 20 Nov 2019 15:41:08 +0000 Sara L. 2078758@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks great on you and I like all the outfits you've put together.&nbsp; I really like it with the jeans - the blue of the jeans makes a nice contrast with the jacket color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/petite-velvet-blazer-red-black#post-2078754 Wed, 20 Nov 2019 15:24:07 +0000 Angie 2078754@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER. Utterly delicious velvet jacket!</p> <p>I LOVE IT ON YOU, <b>Chris.</b> Will make it a top pick :)</p> <p>Jacket looks FAB with the black lace top you are sending back :(</p> <p>I like the rest of the tops too!</p> <p>For #7, try lighter shoes.&nbsp;</p> <p>#2 rocks! Yummy loafers.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/petite-velvet-blazer-red-black#post-2078752 Wed, 20 Nov 2019 15:18:14 +0000 Katerina 2078752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great jacket! It looks wonderful on you. I also like shorter jackets better on me than the trendy long ones.<br />I like the styling ideas here. The boot cut shape looks really great with the blazer and if you decide to get the black pair as well, I am sure it will also be a great combination. I like the black slim jeans with this blazer too, and especially the column of black in the first picture. I know you are returning this particular top, but another black top or a shirt will be perfect. I also like 5-6 and 7-8.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/petite-velvet-blazer-red-black#post-2078749 Wed, 20 Nov 2019 14:57:14 +0000 Chris987 2078749@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks <b>RobinF</b>! Yes the loafers are TTS..I generally start with size 7 (or a 6 1/2 for sandals) , but often size up to a 7 1/2 so I can add a&nbsp; more cushioned insole. I have these in 7 and added a very slim insole and the fit is good and they are comfortable. However FS is usually not quite cushioned enough for me for all-day wear and these are like that so I don't wear them for lots of walking.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/petite-velvet-blazer-red-black#post-2078746 Wed, 20 Nov 2019 14:50:45 +0000 RobinF 2078746@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And I love those black loafers! Do they fit TTS?</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/petite-velvet-blazer-red-black#post-2078745 Wed, 20 Nov 2019 14:49:41 +0000 RobinF 2078745@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful jacket and looks like a good fit. I think it could be definitely dressed up or down. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/petite-velvet-blazer-red-black#post-2078741 Wed, 20 Nov 2019 14:44:29 +0000 Chris987 2078741@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Some quick styling ideas...&nbsp;</p> <p>1 WHBM lacy black sweater &amp; black jeans. The sweater has lace inserts at the neckline and down the length of the sleeve. The SA suggested I try this and it came home with me, but I’m not really into this much lace, plus I have a lot of other black tops, so it’s going back.<br /> 2+3 White/black striped lightweight sweater &amp; black jeans<br /> 4 Grey Blouse, same black jeans.<br /> 5+6 J Crew blue shirt, bootcut jeans<br /> 7+8 Anthro gold/cream top, same bootcut jeans.&nbsp;<br /> NO PHOTO...the b/w striped boho top would work too I think.</p> <p>I really like the bootcut jeans with this blazer. They are new, and I was thinking of getting them in black also.&nbsp; These outfits don't feel particularly "holiday-ish" except 7/8 but I'd add some jewelry and that might be enough for me.&nbsp;</p> <p><b><i>What do you think?&nbsp;</i></b></p> <b><i><br /> </i></b> <p></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/petite-velvet-blazer-red-black#post-2078567 Tue, 19 Nov 2019 15:11:06 +0000 Chris987 2078567@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>hah <b>bridgie</b>, good one!&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Gigi</b> - glad to have you here on the short blazer bandwagon!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/petite-velvet-blazer-red-black#post-2078435 Tue, 19 Nov 2019 05:06:50 +0000 Gigi 2078435@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the idea of the red.

Go figure :-)&nbsp; I think it's either certain tones of red that I like, or certain garments, like coats (I have two).&nbsp;</p> <p><b>RobinF </b>yes, WHBM is great for petites, as long as you want an office-ey, feminine and/or classic style. I don't buy a lot from them but I'm glad they stick to what they do best because it's always reliable and the quality is great.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks <b>Suz!&nbsp;</b></p> <p><b>Lisa p</b> great ideas, I was already thinking of casual outfits more than dressy ones...but it can work for both. I'd love to try longer jackets but they just don't look good on me, so I'll leave them to you, I think they work very well on you.&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks <b>Rachy!&nbsp;</b> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/petite-velvet-blazer-red-black#post-2078294 Mon, 18 Nov 2019 20:23:50 +0000 rachylou 2078294@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I very much see you in the red! </p>
