It looks great styled this way and would be the way I'd wear one, too. Have a wonderful time and enjoy! You've got the wardrobe covered. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---inspired-my-todays-post-and-my-new-jacket/page/2#post-847278 Wed, 13 Feb 2013 01:32:21 +0000 Sveta 847278@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you so much for loving my BF jeans and my new tuxedo jacket together with me! Your lovely comments really made my day today (which was really very rotten at work) and K rating from Angie was just a cherry on top!<br /> I am glad that faded denim was not a faux pas with the black jacket.<br /> Kristin SF, for alterations we ripped out the sleeves from the shoulder seam to the back, my mom took in the shoulders and back along the sleeve seams and re-attached the sleeves. I don't think it is a very simple and cheap alteration but it is not overly complicated either. You can always take a jacket to a seamstress and get an estimate. I don't think the cost of this alteration makes sense unless the jacket is of a such quality that it is a small fraction of its price to make it perfect or if you are very hard to fit properly in jackets. I am really lucky to have my Wiz Mom!<br /> Krish, I wore these BF jeans tucked into a tall boots to work because we had freezing rain and my booties are not the right footwear for these conditions. I have changed into booties at work and wore sheer knee high socks with them.<br /> Christieanne, thanks for loving my haircut. I was afraid I went too short this time...<br /> Mochi, I would love to have a cropped tuxedo jacket too but lately I have real trouble wearing my cropped jackets other than with dresses or tunics over skinnies. I think I need to find the perfect 'cropped' length to wear with regular length tops, I am afraid mine are all too short. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---inspired-my-todays-post-and-my-new-jacket/page/2#post-847270 Wed, 13 Feb 2013 01:10:51 +0000 Carole 847270@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You ate making me want a BF so bad!

I usually like a cropped tuxedo jacket, but you pull off this length really well.

Your jacket alterations really show the power of excellent craftsmanship.

I always adore the look of black with lighter wash denim, it's a lovely contrast. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---inspired-my-todays-post-and-my-new-jacket#post-846718 Tue, 12 Feb 2013 14:41:32 +0000 Transcona Shannon 846718@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow Sveta - the alterations on the jacket turned out fabulous (your Mom is a genius!). I think this looks so chic with the faded BF jeans and I love the roll showing your ankle. I might have to try the python booties like this - I love how them lengthen your leg line due to the low contrast colour. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---inspired-my-todays-post-and-my-new-jacket#post-846710 Tue, 12 Feb 2013 14:34:49 +0000 Tina.b 846710@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, you look just amazing!

How clever of you to have altered it to this length. BTW I really really like this jacket with your BF. It looks perfect from the back too. </p> <p>Also, how are you wearing the BF these days with the weather? Surely not as shown above unless inside... just curious, cause I'm having trouble. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---inspired-my-todays-post-and-my-new-jacket#post-846616 Tue, 12 Feb 2013 11:04:33 +0000 Jjsloane 846616@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it, what a difference good tailoring makes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw---inspired-my-todays-post-and-my-new-jacket#post-846605 Tue, 12 Feb 2013 09:35:46 +0000 Katiepea 846605@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a fantastic look!
