I still have mine but haven’t worn it in a year or more. I’m hanging onto it though — it’s such a great piece that I can imagine gravitating back to it at some point. </p> <p>I can see a menswear-inspired blazer like that working really well for you! Have fun shopping! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6day-1-in-the-big-city#post-2220969 Thu, 02 Sep 2021 12:50:49 +0000 Anonymous 2220969@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great- and I can picture you in the jackets too!

Looks good. I look forward to your further reporting </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6day-1-in-the-big-city#post-2220910 Thu, 02 Sep 2021 05:51:49 +0000 Minaminu 2220910@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well planned! The plaid blazer would be a fab addition and I am sure you'd be able to style it in many ways! As for the single or double-breasted, I think you will need to try a few since the cut will make a big difference. Maybe a straight cut would work best with your sporty tomboy look! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6day-1-in-the-big-city#post-2220908 Thu, 02 Sep 2021 05:39:56 +0000 Sally 2220908@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like your sporty tomboy style.&nbsp; I think a plaid jacket would be a great addition to your wardrobe.&nbsp; I suppose you would know if you suit single breast or double-breasted jackets.&nbsp; I know I can't wear double-breasted jackets.&nbsp; &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6day-1-in-the-big-city#post-2220903 Thu, 02 Sep 2021 05:10:49 +0000 slim cat 2220903@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great - glad you are having good time on your trip.&nbsp;<br />The second jacket looks more sharp to my eye with those contrasting black buttons - but both will probably work for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6day-1-in-the-big-city#post-2220900 Thu, 02 Sep 2021 04:14:52 +0000 Cee 2220900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*Mic drop with the splits* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6day-1-in-the-big-city#post-2220890 Thu, 02 Sep 2021 02:29:26 +0000 CarolS 2220890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Enjoy your time in TO!

I hope to find some brown pants to wear it with. I can see either jacket looking wonderful on you.<br /> Enjoy the rest of your exploration of the big city. I hope you find something that you love. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6day-1-in-the-big-city#post-2220881 Thu, 02 Sep 2021 01:42:58 +0000 Jaime 2220881@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looking fabulous for your city adventure Carla! I really like the look of the second jacket. Hope all those appointments and errands went well! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw%e2%80%a6day-1-in-the-big-city#post-2220878 Thu, 02 Sep 2021 01:36:00 +0000 Carla 2220878@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This morning DH drove me and DS#2 into the Big City (Toronto) for a series of appointments for DS#2. &nbsp;While DS was at his first appointment, we visited a fancy men’s leather goods store (Loaden) and had DH’s belt taken in by 2 inches! &nbsp;(I had bought it as a Christmas present when we were both working, and since retirement in 2018 DH has dropped 25 lbs!) &nbsp;Afterwards we visited Harry Rosen (a nice men’s store) where he picked up a pair of Hugo Boss pants (his ‘go to’ brand.) &nbsp;We all had a nice lunch together outside on a patio on a quiet street with leafy trees overhead providing shade. &nbsp;After lunch DH left for home, DS#2 went to his next appointment, I checked in to the hotel, and then I went and did reconnaissance shopping. &nbsp;After DS’s appointment we did another hour of reconnaissance (he needs an XXL in the item he wants and the store only has XL. &nbsp;We can order online) and then went out for dinner (Thai).</p> <p>Today I explored a big downtown mall (Eaton Centre) Tomorrow I will be exploring a more eclectic part of town (Queen St.), although the last time I was in town (2 years ago) chain stores were starting to squeeze out the indi shops. &nbsp;So far haven’t bought anything, but did try on two similar brown plaid jackets (see pics #3+4)</p> <p>#1 what I wore<br />#2 I like how the teal of the t-shirt picks up the blue/green in the embroidery of the jacket, and the teal in my glasses!</p> <p>Thanks for looking!</p>
