Pink style seems to overwhelm you somehow IMO. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket/page/2#post-1943326 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 17:07:23 +0000 JAileen 1943326@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jussie, thank you. I actually ordered the grey jacket on a whim!</p> <p>Minnaheadsure, thank you.</p> <p>Dana, I do like the pink jacket, but now I’m thinking the larger size would be better. I was thinking the crazy tweed jacket would be competing with it, and I’ve been stalking it and now have ordered it multiple times, trying to get a medium and a large, to compare. I’ve my orders camcelled three times, though, so we’ll see. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket/page/2#post-1943249 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 15:17:27 +0000 Dana 1943249@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love, love, love the grey jacket on you!! I think it's great with the dress and the pants. I don't see any reason you wouldn't wear it with pants.&nbsp;</p> <p>You know, sometimes I think cropped <b>blazers</b> can look funny with pants, but that is not the case at all here.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm not as crazy about the pink jacket. I think what you may be struggling with is that it has more the fit of a coat, not really a jacket. I'm a firm believer that it should be love at first sight for an item to stay...we never really seem to fall in love later.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket/page/2#post-1943149 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 10:04:40 +0000 minnaheadsure 1943149@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>the grey jacket is perfect for you. it's more suit with the pants also. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1943136 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 06:34:29 +0000 jussie 1943136@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The grey jacket looks perfect. I also like the pink, but it’s not got as much wow factor. I agree the grey jacket works with pants and a top peeking out under it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1943110 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 04:06:30 +0000 JAileen 1943110@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, I agree that the pink one might be harder to style. I will probably wear it with jeans mostly.</p> <p>I’m sorry your size of the grey one is out. The jacket is definitely our color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1943082 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 03:19:48 +0000 Suz 1943082@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I just checked and my size is gone, which is a bit of a relief.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1943081 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 03:18:19 +0000 Suz 1943081@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh oh. Now I might have to order that leather jacket, too. ;)&nbsp;</p> <p>Do I need another leather jacket? Ah, no. But you make it look so darn tempting!! I'm glad you are keeping it. It's gorgeous on you. I think it works with pants with a longer top as you have shown it, and will also work with higher waist pants as well. And it works with dresses.&nbsp;</p> <p>The pink one might be harder to style and I take MsMaven's point about drop shoulders...but it's awfully interesting and unique. So if you can keep both you might consider.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1943065 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 01:57:16 +0000 JAileen 1943065@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rachy, although the sleeves need shortening in the larger size, the overall look of the sleeve is better, I think. </p> <p>Aquamarine, as you can see, my silvery hair and the jacket are nearly the same color, both cool colors. </p> <p>Staysfit, yay! I’ll be watching to see how you style it. And I might copy you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1943030 Tue, 31 Jul 2018 01:01:37 +0000 Staysfit 1943030@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hooray!

I am waiting for mine to show up and I’m excited you said it’s a true grey. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1943014 Mon, 30 Jul 2018 23:50:35 +0000 rachylou 1943014@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Agreed about the pink in the larger size. I really prefer it as intentionally oversized and relaxed. But then agreed re laziness. My basket of stuff for the tailor is testament to that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1942993 Mon, 30 Jul 2018 23:22:20 +0000 Angie 1942993@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*happy dance* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1942987 Mon, 30 Jul 2018 23:12:08 +0000 JAileen 1942987@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, I’ve already hung the grey one in my closet. The pink one is up in the air, though. I had ordered the crazy tweed jacket, so we’ll see. But I’m keeping the grey one for sure.</p> <p>ETA: thank you for the encouragement. Also, I only ordered it after readng your description. Because most grey turns out to be tan. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1942976 Mon, 30 Jul 2018 22:51:49 +0000 Angie 1942976@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>MUST KEEP LEATHER JACKET. TOOOOOO PERFECT WITH YOUR HAIR.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1942967 Mon, 30 Jul 2018 22:25:32 +0000 JAileen 1942967@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Donna, thank you. I’ll post a picture of the tweed jacket when it arrives. It hasn’t shipped yet.</p> <p>Rachy, yes to the grey. Now I’m rethinking the pink one, even which size. The larger size is more intentional. The lazy me liked the smaller size, though, because the sleeves didn’t need to be shortened.. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1942938 Mon, 30 Jul 2018 21:24:21 +0000 rachylou 1942938@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don’t know. If I had to pick one, I might go with the pink because you wear pants a lot. But the grey is a really great fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1942936 Mon, 30 Jul 2018 21:19:40 +0000 DonnaF 1942936@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I know you love pink, but the gray jacket looks absolutely fabulous on you. Wow! I look forward to seeing you in the tweed jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1942919 Mon, 30 Jul 2018 20:52:17 +0000 JAileen 1942919@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LaP, you might be right about the pink one.</p> <p>Joyce, thank you.</p> <p>Jane, I could keep both, but I better not go overboard. I have a couple more items yet to arrive, one of which is the crazy tweed jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1942911 Mon, 30 Jul 2018 20:34:24 +0000 Jane 1942911@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The leather jacket is a perfect grey! Well done. I think it will look as good with pants and skirts, but it does look good with the skirt, which is unusual I think for moto jackets. I do very much like the pink jacket, too, and prefer I think the smaller size. If you could keep both, that would be perfect! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1942906 Mon, 30 Jul 2018 20:28:10 +0000 Joyce B 1942906@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also love the leather jacket on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1942899 Mon, 30 Jul 2018 20:16:36 +0000 LaPed 1942899@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the grey one A LOT and think it looks excellent with the cropped pants in 7/8/9. I think the layering top peeking out the bottom is a-okay and don't think this is too short at all.</p> <p>The pink one looks nice too, but seems like it would take more effort to style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1942883 Mon, 30 Jul 2018 19:42:16 +0000 JAileen 1942883@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Smittie, I do have a thrifted pink tweed blazer and a pink velvet bomber. It hasn’t been as useful as I had hoped. And of course I have a ton of non pink jackets. </p> <p>MsMaven, I think Angie preferred the larger size, too. It was more of a statement. The drop sleeve is something I need to think about.</p> <p>Bj1111, thank you. I like the grey jacket a lot. I guess the length isn’t a problem after all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1942877 Mon, 30 Jul 2018 19:34:45 +0000 bj1111 1942877@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#7 looks super. Good proportions and the jacket hits you at the right spot </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1942876 Mon, 30 Jul 2018 19:34:30 +0000 MsMaven 1942876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the gray jacket better, and yes, I would wear it with pants if I were you.</p> <p>The pink is a great color, but I'm not a fan of dropped sleeve seams--unless someone has broad shoulders it's a bit overwhelming. I think this is a matter of personal taste though. On you I like the larger one better. It looks more intentionally oversized.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1942873 Mon, 30 Jul 2018 19:26:53 +0000 Anonymous 1942873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You love grey. I think it would be a good jacket for you, and would be nice with any blue pants, or dark grey you might have.</p> <p>The pink jacket is nice too and fits you well. I like boiled wool too and think it would work for a more winter day. It strikes me that you already have such a jacket though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1942869 Mon, 30 Jul 2018 19:15:42 +0000 JAileen 1942869@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Karen, I just noticed the sleeve. Hmmm... I also tried it on with a fleece shirt which is about the thickness I might wear, and it was fine. I love the color and the fabric (boiled wool). The moto style is exaggerated I think with the overlap kind of extreme. I’ll have to rethink it.</p> <p>Smittie, I don’t have a grey leather jacket, but I do have a metallic one. A true grey is very very rare. Usually they’re kind of tan.</p> <p>Londonkiwi, I was surprised how good the grey jacket looked in the pictures. Grey could be very useful for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1942852 Mon, 30 Jul 2018 18:45:22 +0000 londonkiwi (now back in NZ) 1942852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m also team grey jacket, if you are picking one of the two.</p> <p>I don’t think it looks too short with trousers, it looks great with the crops. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1942850 Mon, 30 Jul 2018 18:43:49 +0000 Anonymous 1942850@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the grey one. Do you have a grey leather jacket already?<br /> It looks good with pants. I think having a top that’s slightly longer underneath fixes the issue of it being too short. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/smaller-pink-wool-jacket-and-grey-leather-jacket#post-1942843 Mon, 30 Jul 2018 18:35:28 +0000 karen13 1942843@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the grey jacket on yo for fit and silhouette, but only you can decided if you have a use for it with your pants preferences. I think it looks good with the untucked shirt showing a bit under, but maybe try it with some different pants/tops that you would wear it with to see if you like it.</p> <p>The pink is a gorgeous color and looks plenty roomy in this pic, it looks intentionally oversized. I am concerned about the way the shoulder doesn't drape smoothly - is that just in these photos? I personally prefer set in sleeves to dropped sleeves with a heavier fabric. </p>
