Love the ideas of cream, dark denim, or brown bottoms already posted. Also second Angie's suggestion of a warm red or coral top underneath for a pop of color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tweed-jacket-outfit-suggestions#post-31767 Thu, 23 Oct 2008 02:20:53 +0000 Ana 31767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you so much for all the suggestions, everyone! It's really got my wheels turning. I think something is coming together. I'll definitely post when I get it all figured out. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tweed-jacket-outfit-suggestions#post-31758 Thu, 23 Oct 2008 01:44:22 +0000 Kyle 31758@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cream jeans, neutral cami, pearls, boots. Love it. Congrats on the fab jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tweed-jacket-outfit-suggestions#post-31746 Thu, 23 Oct 2008 00:34:35 +0000 Angie 31746@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous jacket! I’d keep the sleeve length as is.</p> <p>I like the idea of your greyhound T underneath (I think I suggested that look when you purchased the T). I like the look of a layered T under a tailored jacket, or waistcoat. It’s when basic or slogan T’s are worn on their own by older women that I protest. This look could work with Converse too. </p> <p>I’d also like the jacket with faded jeans, a coral top and cream shoes. Experiment and show us! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tweed-jacket-outfit-suggestions#post-31710 Wed, 22 Oct 2008 21:05:35 +0000 greenglove 31710@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the idea of mixing textures but keeping the overall lightness and warmth. I agree, plain top, pearls, your idea of cream bottoms is a great one. Robins egg blue would be a great compliment , however probably too spring. Maybe come kind of warm or cool red? I am think of accesssories. You look great, love the hair! It is so feminine! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tweed-jacket-outfit-suggestions#post-31649 Wed, 22 Oct 2008 13:46:44 +0000 Anonymous 31649@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the jacket on you and I like the idea of shortening the sleeves a bit. Have you tried wearing it with grey? I could see it with grey jeans or a charcoal pencil skirt.<br /> Also, thinking of Angie's post on neutrals and texture, that jacket really has texture. You could go monochromatic with camel and creme shades. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tweed-jacket-outfit-suggestions#post-31631 Wed, 22 Oct 2008 05:57:57 +0000 yublocka 31631@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the texture in your jacket! I think it'd look great with a dark brown pencil skirt too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tweed-jacket-outfit-suggestions#post-31627 Wed, 22 Oct 2008 05:27:46 +0000 Amanda 31627@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great find Ana! It looks really good on you. I really like your cream jeans suggestions. I also think that you could wear it with dark wash jeans or a black pencil skirt. I also would keep the top underneath simple to focus attention on the beautiful jacket. Sleeve length looks good to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tweed-jacket-outfit-suggestions#post-31615 Wed, 22 Oct 2008 04:19:04 +0000 Anonymous 31615@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also like the sleeve length as is. Good find. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tweed-jacket-outfit-suggestions#post-31608 Wed, 22 Oct 2008 03:48:16 +0000 Tanya 31608@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous jacket Ana! It looks great on you! Shiny has already covered everything I could think of so no new ideas from me. I actually like the sleeve length a lot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tweed-jacket-outfit-suggestions#post-31600 Wed, 22 Oct 2008 03:29:42 +0000 Ana 31600@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the ideas, Shiny! I wasn't sure if it would go with dark denim since it's so light. I was wondering--what do you think about the sleeve length? You're very good at fit and proportion. I'm thinking they are a bit too long, and would be more flattering if it hit on the widest part of my lower arm, closer to the elbow. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tweed-jacket-outfit-suggestions#post-31599 Wed, 22 Oct 2008 03:28:52 +0000 Anonymous 31599@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, everything seems to look good on you Ana. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tweed-jacket-outfit-suggestions#post-31597 Wed, 22 Oct 2008 03:24:42 +0000 shiny 31597@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>GORGEOUS. This is the Chanel jacket you were looking for, no? Love the color. I like the cream jean idea, dark wash jeans would work great too. </p> <p>I'd have to think about it but I'm leaning towards keeping the top underneath simple, since the jacket is such a statement on it's own. I like what you have with it - simplistic. Just toss on a long strand of pearls, or a statement necklace of chunky pearls. </p> <p>You could also go funky with this (for casual saturday) and wear it open with a clever statement tee underneath ... the kind Angie hates, hee hee... yes, the kind teens tend to wear (I'm thinking of my DD's recycle-logo tee, or her "don't stick your head in the microwave" tee... silly, yeah... but it could be a cute look for a weekend day shopping or playing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/tweed-jacket-outfit-suggestions#post-31587 Wed, 22 Oct 2008 00:56:57 +0000 Ana 31587@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Everyone!</p> <p>I posted this on another thread, but wanted to start a new thread for it because I could definitely use all of your (all yall's) suggestions.</p> <p>Saturday was my birthday, and I hit some thrift stores and a resale shop, where I found this tweed jacket, which Brendan bought for me:</p> <p><a href="http://i66.photobucket.com/albums/h275/Saintana13/S6301007-1.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i66.photobucket.com/alb.....1007-1.jpg</a></p> <p>(sorry for all the junk around, we were cleaning out closets and things). I stopped looking for a tweedy jacket, and then one just appeared! </p> <p>Normally that color would wash me out, but I think it's kind of different and warm--it matches my hair, lol. I think the texture keeps it from just making me disappear. It's like a butterscotch bouclé and has some sleeve hair and 3/4 sleeves, just like I wanted. It also has a V neck instead of the more traditional round neck, which I think we all agreed made me look matronly. I might get the sleeves taken in or shortened as well, but I haven't played with how that would look yet. </p> <p>I'm still figuring out what to wear it with, and this is where I could use some suggestions. I want to keep the look really fresh and kind of edgy. Cream skinny jeans instantly popped to mind (I'm determined to find or make some), with caramel colored boots, but is there anything else? What blouses/tops could I wear underneath it?</p> <p>Thanks everyone! </p>
