Outfit # 2 and 4 are my faves!<br /> How about trying the motovest with a floral maxi dress?! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-my-new-zara-moto-vest-aka-the-janet-influence#post-649167 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 06:28:25 +0000 Kirti 649167@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks great! And now, I want one too </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-my-new-zara-moto-vest-aka-the-janet-influence#post-649142 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 04:52:17 +0000 ManidipaM 649142@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>VERY fab, Nancy! I love it best with the dress in #2, because of the way the white seems to swirl out of the jacket and into the dress pattern. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-my-new-zara-moto-vest-aka-the-janet-influence#post-649108 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 03:43:13 +0000 Janet 649108@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay! I like all the ways you've styled it here, and I'm so flattered to be an influence! </p> <p>I have a black and white striped dress similar to your first pic, but with short sleeves (I'm actually taking it to the tailor to have the sleeves shortened to more of a cap sleeve, I don't like sleeves that hit the middle of my upper arm) -- I am going to copy that look as soon as I get the dress back!</p> <p>I wore the vest today, with simple teal tee, bootcut jeans, and teal sandals. I think we'll both get lots of wear out of it. So glad you joined us and that you got this vest! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-my-new-zara-moto-vest-aka-the-janet-influence#post-649026 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 01:54:25 +0000 Makrame 649026@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a great vest, and it looks perfect with your dresses. Nice find! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-my-new-zara-moto-vest-aka-the-janet-influence#post-649007 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 01:41:19 +0000 Sveta 649007@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am drooling all over my keyboard now! Stunning vest, Nancy and I am sure you can get a lot of use from it. I like all your looks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-my-new-zara-moto-vest-aka-the-janet-influence#post-649004 Tue, 19 Jun 2012 01:37:16 +0000 nancylee 649004@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, everyone! Shopping with the YLF gang was a new experience for me. I usually shop by myself, but shopping with others is a great thing since it can broaden your fashion horizons. I never would have looked at that vest if Janet hadn't seized on it.</p> <p>Thanks for all the great suggestions to try it with jeans, blouses, and midis! </p> <p>Cocolion, good luck with your shopping expedition. I would love to be vest triplets with you and Janet! Glad to help you decide.</p> <p>Diana, I don't think we got a photo of our twin vests. It was late in the day and we were running out of steam. </p> <p>Jean, we found these vests at Zara after you left. :(</p> <p>Naz, I think you should check it out....you can swing by on your bike! It was so fun shopping with you, btw. And thanks for taking the photos. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-my-new-zara-moto-vest-aka-the-janet-influence#post-648923 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 23:08:47 +0000 citygirldc 648923@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Nancy. That jacket definitely look great with all your outfits. a Now I wish I would have tried that piece on. Maybe I'll stop by at the store tomorrow after work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-my-new-zara-moto-vest-aka-the-janet-influence#post-648904 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 22:57:28 +0000 Jjsloane 648904@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How did I miss this??? You look great! Congrats on dipping your toes in edginess. You may never be the same!! (in a good way) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-my-new-zara-moto-vest-aka-the-janet-influence#post-648902 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 22:56:49 +0000 Angie 648902@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My thumbs are up for all of these looks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-my-new-zara-moto-vest-aka-the-janet-influence#post-648857 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 22:31:19 +0000 Deborah 648857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This looks fantastic on you! I love how I'd edges up your dresses. I think this will be quite a versatile piece and can be worn over skirts, jeans, pants....everything. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-my-new-zara-moto-vest-aka-the-janet-influence#post-648856 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 22:31:16 +0000 Vicki 648856@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are so cute and stylish, Nancylee, and I'm glad you're embracing the edgier side of things, because this vest looks great on you! I truly like all four photos...hard to pick just one, and I especially love it in #4 with your new BR t-shirt dress. Jeans, skirts, dresses, I think this vest was made for it all. Also, check out some of Rae's WIW's with her new white jacket to give you some other ideas. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-my-new-zara-moto-vest-aka-the-janet-influence#post-648837 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 22:07:47 +0000 sarah 648837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Exactly what Diana said. Well done on your purchase! (I totally understand being overwhelmed by a full day of shopping - I feel the same way). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-my-new-zara-moto-vest-aka-the-janet-influence#post-648825 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 21:40:36 +0000 Diana 648825@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love these, Nancy! I particularly like the ones with the sleeveless dresses. I also see this with jeans and blouses like Tanya often wears. </p> <p>Did we get a photo of you and Janet with your vests on? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-my-new-zara-moto-vest-aka-the-janet-influence#post-648794 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 20:41:24 +0000 CocoLion 648794@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG! I have this on my Zara wish-list, will go there on Wednesday. After seeing how amazing this looks on you, we might just become wardrobe triplets. It looks like it adds instant style and cool without adding too much heat. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-my-new-zara-moto-vest-aka-the-janet-influence#post-648792 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 20:38:07 +0000 Transcona Shannon 648792@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a fab piece for your wardrobe Nancylee! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-my-new-zara-moto-vest-aka-the-janet-influence#post-648786 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 20:33:25 +0000 Meredith1953 648786@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great vest! It will be a lovely alternative to a jacket on a hot day but still adds a lot of interest and structure to soft dresses! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-my-new-zara-moto-vest-aka-the-janet-influence#post-648775 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 20:22:28 +0000 Suz 648775@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's really cool, Nancy! It looks great with the dresses. How does it work with your new VC midi? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-my-new-zara-moto-vest-aka-the-janet-influence#post-648771 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 20:15:01 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 648771@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great vest. The crisp white is gorgeous on you and it looks really good with all of the outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-my-new-zara-moto-vest-aka-the-janet-influence#post-648768 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 20:10:34 +0000 rae 648768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Reminds me a lot of my white jacket, so of course I've got to love it! It'll look great with jeans/pants, too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-my-new-zara-moto-vest-aka-the-janet-influence#post-648764 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 20:04:34 +0000 Anonymous 648764@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh I love that vest! It's amazing what it does for those simple summer dresses. While it might be too hot (or nice) to wear around the house, if you have to run out, it really adds a lot of pizzazz! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-my-new-zara-moto-vest-aka-the-janet-influence#post-648760 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 19:54:58 +0000 Tanya 648760@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think all of these look great Nancy! And as we discussed yesterday, it would also work great with blouses and jeans, particularly white. Congrats on your first baby step into edgy territory ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/styling-my-new-zara-moto-vest-aka-the-janet-influence#post-648750 Mon, 18 Jun 2012 19:42:45 +0000 nancylee 648750@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So, I hardly bought anything yesterday at the DC shopping meetup. I'm so used to ordering by mail and having lots of time to try things on with my own stuff that I get a little overwhelmed by a full day of shopping. </p> <p>Janet, however, was focused and decisive (well, so was everyone except me. haha!) and she found this cream moto jacket at Zara, which was our last stop of the day. I've always admired her edgy style and have been wanting/trying to introduce a little more edge into my wardrobe lately....timidly, I admit...but I'm trying!</p> <p>Anyway, I bought the vest that Janet found. I think she ended up buying it, too. </p> <p>Here it is styled with:</p> <p>#1 - Lauren navy/white striped dress<br /> #2 - Lauren black/white print dress<br /> #3 - new Peruvian Connection tee-shirt dress<br /> #4 - new BR tee-shirt dress</p> <p>I'm new to the moto vest thing, so I'm open to other suggestions! Thanks! </p>
