And the jeans are perfect too. I completely agree with your decisions on what to keep and not keep except for the Bebe denim - it's too cute and is still flattering as a casual weekend look with your jeans - especially with an un-tucked top to offset the jacket's cropped length. I hope you haven't tossed it yet! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/to-keep-or-not-to-keep-jacket-picture-gallore#post-25280 Thu, 11 Sep 2008 15:59:01 +0000 Munequita 25280@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay! Thank you so much in helping me see the light. Like I said before I have a passionate love for jackets! It is almost a love blind relationship because I see one I love and I just buy it without really noticing if it fits me perfectly.*sigh* I keep thinking I can get it tailored or whatever. I WILL stop doing this!</p> <p>Kristinaps and Shell, I got this trouser jeans years ago at gap online. It is probably one of the very few jeans that I haven't had to hem because the length was perfect for my 5'2" height. I love the idea of trying to belt that boxy jacket, Shell! I will try for fun one of these days when the weather cools.</p> <p>Anyways, Nicole you made me laugh! I hadn't noticed how weird the Bowflex (or the parts that showed) looked in the pictures! It is a workout machine. My hubby is very intense about working out and we have a whole room dedicated to that in our home. So yeah, I took pictures in our 'home gym' that day. I like the light I get in the pictures because it is a very sunny room. Also, you can see some of my kitty toys in the background. LOL! They get to play while we workout.</p> <p>Angie, I am very happy to get this input from you all...BUT it will still be hard to get rid of some of the jackets. I have decided to get rid of the Theory, Michael Kors , and the Bebe leather and bomber denim jacket for sure. I swear I hadn't noticed how some of those were big on me. I was again blinded by love. </p> <p>All of your input along with the pictures help me see the flaws tremendously! Thank you all so much again! I REALLY appreciate it ! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/to-keep-or-not-to-keep-jacket-picture-gallore#post-25201 Thu, 11 Sep 2008 03:43:41 +0000 Ana 25201@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Everyone has chimed in already, I just wanted to say that I LOVE the Cynthia Steffe jacket (green tweed?). That is really fab. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/to-keep-or-not-to-keep-jacket-picture-gallore#post-25197 Thu, 11 Sep 2008 03:41:03 +0000 Tanya 25197@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Muequita, what a great choice of jackets!</p> <p>I would keep jackets from Laundry, Cynthia Steffe, Bebe ( black non-leather one) and. Classiques Entier. Oh, and also the first cropped tweed one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/to-keep-or-not-to-keep-jacket-picture-gallore#post-25180 Thu, 11 Sep 2008 02:55:51 +0000 Nicole 25180@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Meq, I just want to say that you have beautiful skin and what the heck is that black thing with all the hooks and levers off to the side of your mirror? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/to-keep-or-not-to-keep-jacket-picture-gallore#post-25154 Thu, 11 Sep 2008 00:13:10 +0000 Angie 25154@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! A super effort Muequita. I love jackets too! (And Autumn is hands down my favourite time of year as well). Here’s my 2 cents: </p> <p>1. Short tweed – pretty but not your best neckline. Bustier gals look great in this neckline. </p> <p>2. Laundry jacket – beautiful! Love the bracelet length sleeve. </p> <p>3. Cynthia Steffe – impeccable! </p> <p>4. Theory jacket – too long in the sleeve and not a great fit. </p> <p>5. Bebe jacket – Sweet! Great fit and very versatile. </p> <p>6. Michael Kors – not your best</p> <p>7. Classiques – very pretty! </p> <p>8. Bebe leather – not your best</p> <p>9. Denim jacket – pass on. Bombers seldom work for pretty pears</p> <p>How do you feel? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/to-keep-or-not-to-keep-jacket-picture-gallore#post-25153 Wed, 10 Sep 2008 23:54:42 +0000 Taffy 25153@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>love love love the green tweed(?) jacket and the camel ribbon jacket! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/to-keep-or-not-to-keep-jacket-picture-gallore#post-25135 Wed, 10 Sep 2008 21:21:43 +0000 Kyle 25135@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Short Black Tweed: Not my favorite. There's nothing wrong with it, just not my favorite look.</p> <p>Laundry: Fab!</p> <p>Steffe: Fab!</p> <p>Theory: Like it very much -- I have the same jacket. Would work really well with jeans. Fab.</p> <p>Bebe: Great jacket -- sleeves look short. </p> <p>Kors: It's too big on you </p> <p>Bebe leather: Not as chic as you are...</p> <p>Bebe denim: I think it has possibilities to be quite fun with the right other elements and accessories. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/to-keep-or-not-to-keep-jacket-picture-gallore#post-25132 Wed, 10 Sep 2008 21:05:21 +0000 Amanda 25132@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, rather than write a long reply, I'll just say that I agree with Shiny. Even if you get rid of a few, you will still have a great jacket collection! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/to-keep-or-not-to-keep-jacket-picture-gallore#post-25127 Wed, 10 Sep 2008 20:43:28 +0000 shell 25127@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here are my thoughts! :)</p> <p>Short Black Tweed: Love the short sleeves! This could look really lovely if you belt it. Otherwise, it looks just a tad boxy - not much, but just a little more so than the others you've posted.</p> <p>Laundry Jacket: Love it! I'd prefer if it were bowed rather than just tied off in a knot. The bulk of the knot may be the cause for it fitting a little too loose. Are you comfortable wearing it bowed or are you "anti-bow"? I just think it would look super sweet and chic if it were bowed. </p> <p>Cynthia Steffe: Love the color - fit is impeccable. I love the color! :)</p> <p>Theory Jacket: Seems too big and boxy. Not my favorite look of yours!</p> <p>Bebe Jacket:I like it! Is it buttonable?</p> <p>Michael Kors Jacket: Too big and boxy :(</p> <p>Classiques Entier Jacket: Very pretty! Definite keeper!</p> <p>Bebe Leather Jacket: Not my favorite It just looks a little too big overall. A more cropped version would look better, in my opinion.</p> <p>Bebe Denim Jacket:Cute but rather casual. Not my favorite of the bunch, but I can see it having a practical application in your wardrobe. :)</p> <p>I agree w/ kristinaps - great jeans! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/to-keep-or-not-to-keep-jacket-picture-gallore#post-25119 Wed, 10 Sep 2008 19:31:45 +0000 kristinaps 25119@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would say keep the Cynthia Steffee, Classiques Entier, and all the Bebe. I love all three of these! The Classiques Entier looks perfect with the cami and denim as you are wearing it! I don't particularly care for the Tweed, it's not completely flattering. The Laundry seems too big; maybe because of the tie in the middle? I definitely agree that the sleeves are too long on the Theory and I don't think they go with the jeans. The Michael Kors seems too big-too wide. </p> <p>BTW, where did you get your jeans that are in all of the pictures? I love the dark wash! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/to-keep-or-not-to-keep-jacket-picture-gallore#post-25113 Wed, 10 Sep 2008 18:31:51 +0000 Munequita 25113@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ok, I have a love affair with jackets!!!!! They are my favorite thing in my closet and I feel super fab in them. Fall is my favorite time of year, so before I start wearing these I wanted to post some of my favorite ones. I wanted to see how they looked on camera, and I wanted to get you guy's opinion on the fit of them. I want to keep only the ones that are flattering to my body. So please critique away. </p> <p>Thank you for all comments and I warn you from now that it is a lot of them! </p> <p>Short black tweed jacket.
