Period. 1590983@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you will look fantastic!!! &nbsp;I wore a tuxedo jacket outfit to my holiday party last year. &nbsp;Angie's rec tuxedo jacket from Ann Taylor, </p> <p>sheer-ish top with cami underneath peeking out from under the buttoned jacket, straight leg black wool trousers, and pointy toe high heeled pumps. Red lips. Everything very modest, but it was a huge hit. Huge! &nbsp;As in everyone was talking about it again this year. As in lots of (appropriate) compliments about how attractive it looked. I think that combo hits a particular sweet spot that everyone finds very attractive. &nbsp;And your combo definitely looks like it will be a winner! </p> <p>Oh! Also, I wear my tux jacket a lot with jeans, a gray drapey tee and booties. &nbsp;It is my default going-out look and is always a winner. &nbsp;My tuxedo jacket has, by far, been my best evening wear/going out investment. &nbsp; &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/planning-possible-tuxedo-jacket-outfit#post-1590780 Mon, 07 Dec 2015 02:39:20 +0000 unfrumped 1590780@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh and goofy me, the metallic on the shoe is silver! There was a method in my madness when I got them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/planning-possible-tuxedo-jacket-outfit#post-1590763 Mon, 07 Dec 2015 02:01:11 +0000 JAileen 1590763@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If your outfit is all silver and black, then a pop of red would nice - bag or shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/planning-possible-tuxedo-jacket-outfit#post-1590759 Mon, 07 Dec 2015 01:54:05 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1590759@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sounds like a great plan! I'm with L'Abeille--I would at least try the silver clutch and see how it looked. Black will work, too, of course. Are you thinking of adding jewelry? You could wear a short or long necklace--I'm kind of into long pendants lately, with open-front cardis and jackets. I bought some sparkly ones at Lucky that are fun for adding a little something to an outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/planning-possible-tuxedo-jacket-outfit#post-1590754 Mon, 07 Dec 2015 01:44:24 +0000 L'Abeille 1590754@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Why wouldn't you wear the silver clutch? I'd try to add in some more gold somewhere too.<br /> Until January, then we're back to regular programming, black with a little pop of grey. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/planning-possible-tuxedo-jacket-outfit#post-1590752 Mon, 07 Dec 2015 01:39:46 +0000 Anonymous 1590752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love having the option of a tuxedo outfit this time of year. Mine is black jacket with black pants. I like to wear a sequined top under the open jacket. My top is a big pattern in red, white and black. I like the silver jacket if going with a black top. Dark blue sounds great too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/planning-possible-tuxedo-jacket-outfit#post-1590734 Mon, 07 Dec 2015 00:30:10 +0000 unfrumped 1590734@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Angie!<br />I do tuck my tops in these pants--my current top options to go with the metallic are not fancy, but at least rayon-drapey type, more of a supporting act with the jacket.<br />The pant length is not true ankle (not &nbsp;as short as the stock photo&nbsp;) but they are narrow at ankle so there is foot&nbsp;showing when I wear the low-vamped pumps, and with the heel, especially since I belt them so they don't slide down too much. Or I hope that's how it will be! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/planning-possible-tuxedo-jacket-outfit#post-1590726 Mon, 07 Dec 2015 00:15:17 +0000 Angie 1590726@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>GREAT outfit if the pants are short enough for the pumps, and you tuck the top.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/planning-possible-tuxedo-jacket-outfit#post-1590675 Sun, 06 Dec 2015 20:57:31 +0000 unfrumped 1590675@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not even sure I will get there, but I was considering the BR tuxedo jacket for a work "festive attire" evening party.<br />Unintended teaser--no outfit photos as have not even had time to try.</p> <p>A possible option is tapered pants, a plain black T, and pumps, with the jacket.&nbsp; <br />My black pumps have a thin gold band at the back (shown) but I am assuming that will be fine with silver jacket based on no one being able to see very well and, well, oh well!</p> <p>If that works, it would be simple, fairly comfortable&nbsp;and I think appropriate. but I will look like a BR-catalog copycat.</p> <p>I have an option for a dark moody blue rayon T, or maybe a print, and these are things I'd try&nbsp;on as well. &nbsp;and see if one just looked beter than another, or lies better under the jacket.<br />I'm saying T, &nbsp;because that's what I have, and it's not going to be very cold and I plan to keep the jacket on.&nbsp;I do have a LS merino dark blue or&nbsp;black tops&nbsp;and blouses I could try, but even I could overheat in that. </p> <p>For a bag, I may have to go all-black, with a black clutch, as I have silver but that's too much. If I had a small ruby red or something that would be fun. </p>
