Definitely chick and dressy. Not entirely sure about sporty in #1. </p> <p>Oh, and the nude heels I think are particularly nice with ink... and this after I sassed nude heels. I think that's the key combo tho for right now - ink and nude. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191892 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 21:58:24 +0000 Ingunn 1191892@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, all! It's the same designer who made my red fit-and-flare dress from last year, if anyone remerbers that one. </p> <p>I am partial to keeping the pumps, but I have a couple more days left before I need to make the final decision. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191869 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 21:21:01 +0000 Lyn D. 1191869@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh- Too Fab Ingunn!<br />Love the black detail placement. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191853 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 20:37:44 +0000 gryffin 1191853@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ingunn - that jacket was clearly made for you.&nbsp; Fantastic color, love the fit and the design details are gorgeous.&nbsp; I think it looks fabulous!!&nbsp; Clearly, you've found your perfect designer fit and she makes perfect things for your aesthetic!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191847 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 20:21:15 +0000 shedev 1191847@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great jacket. I like all the ways you styled it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191845 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 20:20:30 +0000 deb 1191845@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great hunting find. Love the buttons going up the front. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191832 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 19:38:21 +0000 modgrl 1191832@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awesome jacket! I guess this means you are keeping the MK pumps too? I like both outfits much better with the nude pumps than the black.&nbsp;</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191829 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 19:32:40 +0000 suzanne 1191829@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What an amazing find! How cool is that! The jacket would be incredible even if it wasn't by a well-loved designer. You have some really great thrifting mojo! No question about it. The style and color looks really good on you. The nude pumps make your legs look incredible in the dress and really great in the jeans. I take it you are keeping them? Looks like the jacket will work in all of the ways you listed. So the only thing you haven't tried yet is white pants with the jacket; either a modified white out or column. Not sure if that works for you but the white t shirt looks great with the jacket and the nude pumps look great ...and Angie always talks about ink and white....I think the jacket and you would carry it really well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191640 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 15:37:35 +0000 Ingunn 1191640@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Texstyle, thanks! I really like it with the dark wash jeans, too. This is a topper that I think has a lot in common with a denim jacket, but it is more of a statement piece.</p> <p>Ornella, how fun that you mentioned that. I thought of it as a statement piece when I saw it, too. You are probably right - it looks best with a simple, basic underpinning. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191639 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 15:36:40 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1191639@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Stunning jacket Ingunn! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191579 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 14:28:40 +0000 Ornella 1191579@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, this is quite a&nbsp;score. I don't see the jacket as trendy, more like a statement piece. I love the styling in #3 the best. Something along these lines where the base outfit would just be a stage for the jacket is the best way forward. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191578 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 14:24:59 +0000 texstyle 1191578@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm so envious of your wonderful thrifting Ingunn - this is a great jacket and the color is beautiful.</p> <p>I really love it with the jeans in particular, probably&nbsp;because I am a jeans girl so much of the time, but I think it works nice with the dresses too.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191574 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 14:18:02 +0000 Ingunn 1191574@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, ladies! I'm glad you think so.</p> <p>Ramya, the red jeans are still in my wardrobe, but I think I feel about them as Ornella does about her chambray shirt - I love them in theory, but they don't get any wear. I do have a couple of skirts for S/S that will work with this jacket, thank you for pointing that out:) The jeans are Tiger, yes, also from the same Fretex! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191566 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 14:10:45 +0000 El Cee 1191566@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Absolutely gorgeous, Ingunn! What a find! It looks amazing on you. I especially love the way you have styled it in #3 with jeans and your new "nude" pumps. I am sure this jacket will be very versatile and that you will be able to wear it for many years to come as it has a rather timeless look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191564 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 14:10:17 +0000 lyn67 1191564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great designer jacket, love the insets myself, too, and MK shoes are also keepers(if you can walk in them:-)). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191562 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 14:07:17 +0000 neonginger 1191562@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great find! You wear it well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191550 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 13:41:38 +0000 ramya 1191550@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was just going to say ed pants too. But sad to see they are on chopping block. I like them a lot with the jeans. Is it the Tiger of Sweden one Ingunn?<br />I would like with your black one too.<br />And your floral skirt. (I think you had 1). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191540 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 13:30:20 +0000 Alassë 1191540@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it especially with pictures 1&amp; 3; I think it looks current&nbsp;on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191530 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 13:18:39 +0000 Ingunn 1191530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shevia, I definitely agree! Most of MM's designs are in a mix of classic/minimal/artsy, and a little on the side of mainstream fashion, which makes the clothes more timeless. That is among the things&nbsp;I like about her clothes.&nbsp; </p> <p>Thanks, Windchime! I don't have many favorites, but being from Scandinavia, I find it worthwhile to support my locals when possible:) We are so few people, and they struggle really hard to make it work.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191528 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 13:17:54 +0000 Windchime 1191528@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is an awesome jacket and looks great on you! What a marvelous thrifting find! How neat to have a favorite designer and gradually procure pieces from this designer. You've got me thinking... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191526 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 13:15:51 +0000 Jaime 1191526@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the insets, the color, the fit - in other words great find! I cannot accept a 3 year old jacket can already be dated. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191525 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 13:13:20 +0000 Ingunn 1191525@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, MG! I've done that a couple of times already:)</p> <p>Yes, white jeans will look good, I think, Suz. The red ones are on the brink of getting donated. I tried them on today, and I just don't feel good about them anymore. I'm keeping them for another few months, but I doubt they will remain with me for much longer. The MK's are still on hold, but I do like them! My only concern is wether I'm actually going to wear them much. They ARE a bit high heeled.&nbsp; </p> <p>Ceit, we double posted! Thanks - that's what I like so much, too!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191524 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 13:13:17 +0000 Anonymous 1191524@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>WOW! What a super jacket. I love the colour on you, and the interesting details in the construction. What a find! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191517 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 13:08:27 +0000 Suz 1191517@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great jacket, Ingunn! I love the fun insets.&nbsp;</p> <p>Looks like you are keeping the MK shoes? They look great.&nbsp;</p> <p>I like it least with the black dress (due to the tie waist, I think)&nbsp;and most with the other two looks. I would also love to see it with your white jeans and maybe the red ones, too!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191516 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 13:08:14 +0000 MuseumGal 1191516@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Whoa, that's amazing, love the texture, the buttons, the collar, and of course the collar.&nbsp; Looks amazing on you.&nbsp; Not sure it needs much styling, just throw in on over everything, and out the door! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wib-ink-blue-and-black-jacket-from-a-favorite-designer#post-1191510 Tue, 11 Mar 2014 13:01:14 +0000 Ingunn 1191510@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think one of my first posts in the forum was regarding a Norwegian designer that I like, Mette Møller (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://mettemoller.no">mettemoller.no</a>). In my wardrobe I currently have a couple of dresses and skirts from her collections, and I always check out what's new each season.&nbsp;</p> <p>Last week, while thrifting, my heart started pounding when I recognized her label in a jacket. It is in&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.pinterest.com/pin/231302130836309997/">ink blue corduroy with black insets in the back and as stripes on one arm, and has a dressy/sporty vibe</a>. It is not lined, and feels like a cardigan on - and it fits me as it is. Since I was looking for a short non-blazer&nbsp;jacket for skirts and dresses, this was a great opportunity for me. Naturally, I bought it.</p> <p>I found the jacket in her archives, and it is from her <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.mettemoller.no/ImageGalleryDetail.aspx?imagegalleryid=17">2010 Spring collection</a>. Although a few years old, I hope you agree with me that it still is current.&nbsp;I like it with both pencil skirts, sheaths, wider skirts/dresses and jeans/pants.&nbsp;</p> <p>My style descriptor these days is "Sporty Dressy Chic Modern Classic". Do you think it fits within this frame? How can I style it to its best benefits?</p> <p>Thanks for looking! All and any comments and styling suggestions are highly welcome.&nbsp; </p>
