And thank you for suggesting moving the buttons a bit on a jacket instead of having it taken in; that would not have occurred to me in a hundred years. I posted about having those boots taken in: <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-tailored-boots-are-back-from-the-cobbler?replies=10" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....replies=10</a> It's fun to have one pair that fit as they are supposed to!</p> <p>Chris -- I will try to remember that outfit when the weather turns again in October...</p> <p>Angie -- I got that brown jacket at a consignment shop for a great price, plus the $10 to have the sleeves shortened. So glad it made the "keep" pile!</p> <p>Niva -- stay tuned for a better photo tomorrow!</p> <p>Thanks for all your input, Muses... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/two-more-jackets-do-these-work#post-65888 Mon, 18 May 2009 02:06:47 +0000 Vani 65888@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the fit and style of the first jacket on you. I can't tell much of the fit of the second jacket, but the style is great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/two-more-jackets-do-these-work#post-65881 Mon, 18 May 2009 01:47:40 +0000 Angie 65881@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the first one, April! KEEP.</p> <p>Can't really see the second one's fit. Think you can manage another pic? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/two-more-jackets-do-these-work#post-65846 Sun, 17 May 2009 22:46:10 +0000 Chris 65846@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like both jackets fit and style. Love the olive green outfit with charcoal skirt and boots - very Fall perfect! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/two-more-jackets-do-these-work#post-65843 Sun, 17 May 2009 22:41:09 +0000 taylor 65843@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love tropical wool, so wearable. I think both jackets look like they fit well. And I like the way you dressed jacket #2 with layering.</p> <p>You may want to move the buttons just a smidge if you prefer a slightly more snug fit on #1,it would save you on aditional alteration cost at this point, but it looks good as is...you always look GOOD!! :)</p> <p>Love that you had the boots tailored...!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/two-more-jackets-do-these-work#post-65837 Sun, 17 May 2009 22:29:07 +0000 cciele 65837@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's a bit hard for me to see the jacket details since they are dark, but I think they fit well, April. I like the work outfit you put together; the boots add a nice kick to the ensemble. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/two-more-jackets-do-these-work#post-65808 Sun, 17 May 2009 17:45:07 +0000 April 65808@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>(I promise, I'm almost finished with my jacket questions!)</p> <p>First is an ATL brown jacket in a silky tropical-weight wool. Uninteresting on its own, but I dress it up with accessories for work. I had the sleeves shortened already, but does the waist need altering?</p> <p><a href="http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/uu218/AprilYLF/Jackets%20Round%203/IMG_0165.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i649.photobucket.com/al.....G_0165.jpg</a></p> <p>Second is a deep olive velveteen fitted jacket. I already had it altered --is the fit right on this one?</p> <p><a href="http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/uu218/AprilYLF/Jackets%20Round%203/IMG_0175.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i649.photobucket.com/al.....G_0175.jpg</a></p> <p>Here it is as part of work outfit from cooler weather (with my calf-tailored boots and a charcoal pencil skirt): <a href="http://i649.photobucket.com/albums/uu218/AprilYLF/Jackets%20Round%203/IMG_0054_1.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://i649.photobucket.com/al.....0054_1.jpg</a></p> <p>Thank you for bearing with me as I work out my jacket situation! </p>
