Updated barn jackets &amp; unstructured blazers in nice colors. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what%e2%80%99s-trending-for-toppers#post-2203273 Fri, 18 Jun 2021 00:46:31 +0000 Sloper 2203273@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Long line and oversize blazers. They don't look preppy.</p> <p>Hoodies and gear-ish styles too.</p> <p>Chunky cotton sweaters.</p> <p>By "preppy" do you mean "J Crew" or more "LL Bean" - not to stir up the preppy pot around here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what%e2%80%99s-trending-for-toppers#post-2203258 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 23:02:05 +0000 Brooklyn 2203258@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Long line shackets are trending here. Mid thigh to calf length, button down or belted. Sometimes checked. It’s more structured than a cardi but more casual than a coat. I don’t think I will be dipping into that trend (never say never) but I am feeling like long line is the way to go next (for me). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what%e2%80%99s-trending-for-toppers#post-2203250 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 22:12:00 +0000 Sal 2203250@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aside from blazers the three toppers below are the only ones I own....&nbsp; I struggle with this category too after a couple of fails with light jackets that I thought would be perfect but aren't...</p> <p>I don't think mine are trending styles at all.&nbsp; I am loosely looking for a new bomber- I watched Behind Her Eyes (excellent) and Louise wore this bomber a few times and I coveted this one.&nbsp; It is a bit too subdued an olive for me (I am better with a warm tone rather than a greyed) otherwise I probably would have bought it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what%e2%80%99s-trending-for-toppers#post-2203247 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 21:46:12 +0000 Carla 2203247@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@ racheylou - sleeves, please! &nbsp;I’m thinking of the topper as a replacement for the kind of jacket in Finds below.</p> <p>For everyone who suggested a safari style jacket - THANKS! &nbsp;That sounds right up my alley! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what%e2%80%99s-trending-for-toppers#post-2203228 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 20:22:57 +0000 rachylou 2203228@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have brought out my tan gilet with tie waist that never got wear when I originally bought it but now seems the ticket. Shows a bit of waist. This 1200-year drought/heatwave has been the difference, ahem! … do you require sleeves, Carla? I like a duster in summer… </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what%e2%80%99s-trending-for-toppers#post-2203223 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 20:05:42 +0000 Helena 2203223@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really love Nemosmom's suggestion of shirt-as-topper ... I think this is a current look, and while it can skew casual (e.g. the plaid shirt topper look), I think can look very classic and polished, say with a linen shirt (or your Aritzia dress), or even something a little silkier (almost like a blouse worn a la kimono style).&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what%e2%80%99s-trending-for-toppers#post-2203216 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 19:14:22 +0000 Anonymous 2203216@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow - Irina - I want all three of your pieces ! I was going to suggest a linen or denim blazer for you Carla . I have plunged into the boxy chunky cardigan myself and am thinking I’ll put them all away until fall . Somehow it feels too much of everything for summer . Club Monaco had always been my go-to for summer jackets - not sure what they have this season though . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what%e2%80%99s-trending-for-toppers#post-2203215 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 19:14:22 +0000 nemosmom 2203215@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>I am likely in the minority, and hardly in tune with what anyone else is wearing... Have you tried heavier shirts as toppers???  I have discovered that I don't like the thickness and weight of most jackets or heavy sweaters when it's over ~62F...  YMMV</div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what%e2%80%99s-trending-for-toppers#post-2203211 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 18:36:15 +0000 SarahD8 2203211@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, I like LaPed's suggestion of something with a slight safari vibe. A nod in the direction of Isak Dinesen without being too costumey. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what%e2%80%99s-trending-for-toppers#post-2203210 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 18:32:19 +0000 Irina 2203210@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don’t know what is trendy I wear a navy linen bomber style jacket from Massimo Dutti (similar to the picture below), below the knee BR cardigan or unlined linen blazer.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what%e2%80%99s-trending-for-toppers#post-2203206 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 17:49:40 +0000 cat2 2203206@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A fashion forward brand I sale stalk is featuring long and oversized blazers and summer fabric trenches, like linen. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what%e2%80%99s-trending-for-toppers#post-2203205 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 17:43:31 +0000 LaPed 2203205@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can’t speak to what people are actually wearing (I mostly see hoodies and windbreakers), but I like the idea of boxy relaxed blazers, whether short or long. I also have a feeling there’s a safari vibe in the mix, but maybe it’s just my own propensity for brown right now. I keep looking at these two toppers from BR. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what%e2%80%99s-trending-for-toppers#post-2203199 Thu, 17 Jun 2021 17:27:11 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2203199@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Isn’t too preppy a personal choice?
