The shoulders and sleeves are my concern too.</p> <p>I will scrunch the sleeves and take a few more pictures. I will also style it properly for the next photo.</p> <p>Appreciate your encouragement that it is workable, at least until I find the "perfect" red jacket:) xxx </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-blazer-keep-or-return#post-663373 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 17:57:59 +0000 CocoLion 663373@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's a keeper. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-blazer-keep-or-return#post-663364 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 17:39:39 +0000 Vicki 663364@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good color, nice BF vibe and scrunched sleeves will put it in cool Deborah territory. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-blazer-keep-or-return#post-663352 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 17:11:27 +0000 catgirl 663352@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Angie said (and I honestly tthought that before I read her comment!)... If you can scrunch/roll the sleeves and they don't look as big, keep! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-blazer-keep-or-return#post-663328 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 16:32:28 +0000 Jonesy 663328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it could be fab with the sleeves rolled and scrunched a bit, worn unbuttoned. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-blazer-keep-or-return#post-663309 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 15:26:03 +0000 rae 663309@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The shoulders and sleeves look big to me was my first impression. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-blazer-keep-or-return#post-663299 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 15:06:03 +0000 Angie 663299@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love everything about the blazer accept the fit of the sleeves. That said, scrunch and take another photo. There are ways to get around this challenge! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-blazer-keep-or-return#post-663280 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 14:27:10 +0000 christy 663280@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deborah, I really like this jacket and think you should keep it. It does look a bit long in the sleeves though - can you roll them? It might be too long for this, but I'm envisioning it with an untucked white blouse over your long black striped skirt. I like the relaxed vibe and think it will look great over more fitted bottoms. How are you feeling about it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-blazer-keep-or-return#post-663255 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 14:00:53 +0000 Anonymous 663255@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What Meredith said. A red blazer should fit will into your wardrobe. At least keep it until you come across the perfect one (I know how hard they are to find). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-blazer-keep-or-return#post-663252 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 13:58:57 +0000 Meredith1953 663252@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Scrunch those sleeves lady and you have a terrific boyfriend jacket! I can see it with jeans and red shoes too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-blazer-keep-or-return#post-663235 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 13:28:48 +0000 Transcona Shannon 663235@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this can work for you Deborah and we know the colour is fab and will play nicely with your wardrobe. It is a relaxed fit and almost on the "boyfriend" side of style so I would treat it that way. I would scrunch the sleeves and wear it over blouses and crisp button up shirts. I suspect it might be a bit long to wear with skirts or dresses though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-blazer-keep-or-return#post-663227 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 13:01:53 +0000 Traci 663227@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not certain on this one. I love the idea of a red blazer, but the shoulders seem big on you and I feel like I've seen you in much more flattering jackets before. Maybe I would feel differently about it styled? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-blazer-keep-or-return#post-663213 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 12:40:01 +0000 anne 663213@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definite keeper. Will be great to add some colour to your outfits! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-blazer-keep-or-return#post-663194 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 12:11:04 +0000 Ornella 663194@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What sarah said. I love the color on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-blazer-keep-or-return#post-663193 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 12:09:56 +0000 ManidipaM 663193@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It is a relaxed fit yes, but very shapely and flattering still, Deborah. Not reading as boxy to me at all! I vote keep. That colour is brilliant on you and perfect for your wardrobe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-blazer-keep-or-return#post-663182 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 11:48:03 +0000 sarah 663182@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that this could work really well in your wardrobe. Are the sleeves a bit big? I can't quite tell from the pictures. I think you could make it work, though, and of course the color is great for your wardrobe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-blazer-keep-or-return#post-663142 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 09:08:20 +0000 Mona 663142@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The colour is gorgeous but like you said it is a little relaxed in fitting. I still vote keep. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-blazer-keep-or-return#post-663141 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 09:03:07 +0000 Yolande 663141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would keep it </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/red-blazer-keep-or-return#post-663140 Sat, 07 Jul 2012 08:38:23 +0000 Deborah 663140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I brought a couple (make that a few) things back from my day and half in Melbourne so forgive my multiple posts:)</p> <p>My sister gave me this jacket. She bought it and just hasn't worn it. It is MNG and almost the same as my brown blazer but I feel it doesn't sit as well.</p> <p><a href="http://dgates.lookfab.com/post/wiw-suited-up" rel="nofollow">http://dgates.lookfab.com/post/wiw-suited-up</a></p> <p>So I would really appreciate your feedback. The brown one looks a tad more fitted whereas the red reads a little more like a boyfriend cut when unbuttoned. BTW this would primarily be a work jacket.</p> <p>Over to you. What do you think?</p> <p>Thank you.<br /> xxx. Deborah </p>
