Yeah, 2 seems short.</p> <p>Too bad about the side lace sweater. It did seem clever. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825803 Wed, 19 Jul 2017 00:23:23 +0000 Author Linda 1825803@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would totally wear a silver topper, Thistle. Whether DH will want to accompany a woman wearing a silver topper is quite another question, so I guess we'll see! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825763 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 23:10:57 +0000 Thistle 1825763@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #3 the best!<br />Not a fan of #2. It looks like it might be too short. You could try sizing up, but not sure that'll fix the length.<br />#1 is fun, but I'm less sure of it than #3. Would you wear a silver topper? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825751 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 22:31:36 +0000 Author Linda 1825751@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I truly appreciate the collective wisdom of this forum. I did try the olive jacket with a couple of dresses and... it still doesn't quite work for me. And yes, Staysfit and Elle, and everyone else who mentioned that the color isn't great for me, are right. I've tried the jacket in different lighting. I notice it clashes with just about ALL my clothes. There's a reason for that. The rest of my clothing is good for my coloring, lots of grays and blues and pretty jewel colors. Not olive. </p> <p>Cute as the jacket is -- and it is SO cute! -- it isn't going to be joining my wardrobe. Neither is the item below. I bought as a possible lounging top, but it's not soft (fabric is rather stiff, in fact) and not flattering. The color is nice, but the fit makes me look like a box. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825737 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 21:40:39 +0000 Staysfit 1825737@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love both 1&amp;3! Really love them on you! Not as fond of number two but I am fond of the idea of an olive green as a neutral jacket.. I think this shade of olive looks flat against your coloring. Maybe it's the lighting? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825733 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 21:15:58 +0000 Elle 1825733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm so glad you are keeping 1 and 3. &nbsp;Both look great. &nbsp;I'm not crazy about the Levi color on you - although monitor colors are not always reliable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825730 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 21:09:48 +0000 Lisa 1825730@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote yes to 1 and 3 both for fit and color. &nbsp;Just lovely! &nbsp;#2 I vote pass, I think it's too short lengthwise on you and it can't compare to the other 2 options you have here. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825728 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 21:07:39 +0000 Style Fan 1825728@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love #3 on you.&nbsp; Now that is cute.&nbsp; The colour and style are lovely.&nbsp; The bomber in #1 is a great colour and the texture is so fun.&nbsp; Cheap as Chips in #2 is a lot of work.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825708 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 20:39:03 +0000 Author Linda 1825708@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't wear a lot of dresses, but I do have a black EF midi dress. And an indigo denim dress. Hmmm. I shall give that a try. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825704 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 20:35:40 +0000 LaPed 1825704@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Caslon jacket is so lovely! I think the Levi's jacket wants to be worn, unzipped, over a dress -- do you have any dresses in need of an olive topper? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825687 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 19:49:55 +0000 Emily K 1825687@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yea!! &nbsp;Glad to see that you found some winners! &nbsp;:-)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825682 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 19:42:06 +0000 Author Linda 1825682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The vote is in. Definitely keeping #1 and #3. If niece doesn't want the military jacket, it's going back.</p> <p>The second Paul Green booties came in, too... and the tan is just as pretty as the gray. Probably I would use the gray more, but... I really like them both. *sigh* &nbsp;</p> <p>Oh, and the Halogen cuff bracelet is wonderful! Another win. Keep.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825680 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 19:40:55 +0000 Suz 1825680@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p># 3 is brilliant on you! Keep it and love it!!&nbsp;</p> <p>I also really like #1 -- the texture is super fun! It would make me want to stroke it (I mean, on myself..I wouldn't go up and stroke you, promise! -- but I also wouldn't be surprised if you get requests for that sort of thing, wearing it..)</p> <p>I think the other jacket is possible, but would be better worn open over a dress or skirt, or high waisted crops if you do that kind of thing.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825669 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 19:09:23 +0000 Laura G 1825669@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Piling on with my vote for #3. Really looks pretty on you. #1 also looks good. #2 looks too small, just b/c of the length </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825668 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 19:08:29 +0000 Preppy Pear 1825668@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>3! 3! 3!&nbsp; Cute!!!</p> <p>I also like 1!</p> <p>I don't know if you "can't" wear the color in 2, but I still like the others better.&nbsp; I'm all about grey and silver though.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825661 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 18:47:24 +0000 Dianna 1825661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with most here, that 3 is wonderful on you.&nbsp; 2 looks better unzipped, but it's not as flattering as 3. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825652 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 18:25:16 +0000 JAileen 1825652@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>3 is really cute on you. 2 definitely looks better unzipped, but looks too short to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825649 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 18:20:55 +0000 Beth 1825649@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Linda, #2 looks better unzipped, but to my eyes the color of #3 is so great on you that #2 doesn't seem as good. You could try different tops under #2 if you wanted to play around with styling it. Maybe a top with a deeper color and some length? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825648 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 18:18:23 +0000 Joyce B 1825648@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love #3 on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825647 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 18:17:51 +0000 Maureen B 1825647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1 and 3 are fantastic -especially 3! &nbsp;The only way I can see number 2 working is with monochromatic base - maybe black? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825645 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 18:16:22 +0000 nicoleb 1825645@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I loooove #3 on you! </p> <p>I ordered the bomber in the other color, and I agree! It's so good! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825639 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 18:03:33 +0000 Anonymous 1825639@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm still finding it too short, but it does look better. I prefer the other jackets you show. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825638 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 18:01:22 +0000 Author Linda 1825638@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just for comparison, here is #2 opened. It's a fun jacket, just not sure I'm the right person to wear it.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825637 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 17:58:32 +0000 Barbara Diane 1825637@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>1 and 3 make me want to try them. I agree with others re: #2. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825635 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 17:48:01 +0000 Beth 1825635@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree that it's hard to tell on #2 without unzipping it. It may look a bit different when it falls open.&nbsp;</p> <p>I love #3. The color is fantastic on you and the length looks just right. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/so-heres-my-review#post-1825634 Tue, 18 Jul 2017 17:48:01 +0000 Author Linda 1825634@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cheap as chips! It is cute, though. :)</p> <p>I'm 5'7, with longish legs. I like the military jacket open, but am not convinced i carry it off. The color also concerns me. I have avoided yellowish tones for decades. I'm seeing my niece this weekend, so will see if she likes it. </p>
