I like how its softness contrasts with the fab jacket - &amp; boots! </p> <p>Glad your father survived it but what a connection through history </p> <p>'Problem child' gave me a good chuckle - perhaps wearing the jacket as a removable topper (i.e. with other layers that you wouldn't mind showing) would help it to fly under the radar at the office? (See what I did there? Lol!) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1211-old-and-thrifted#post-2295960 Mon, 12 Dec 2022 03:51:04 +0000 CarolS 2295960@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, <b>Vildy</b>! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1211-old-and-thrifted#post-2295959 Mon, 12 Dec 2022 03:50:37 +0000 CarolS 2295959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, <b>Jonesy</b>! I'm trying to decide if I am 'ballsy' enough to wear it to the office with wide trousers or a midi skirt and boots. Our dress code is 'business casual' but most people are pretty conservative in their approach. I'm chafing a bit at the restrictions and looking for a way to push it a bit without being branded a 'problem child'.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1211-old-and-thrifted#post-2295957 Mon, 12 Dec 2022 03:42:21 +0000 Vildy 2295957@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love all the sculptural contours of these outfit pieces. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1211-old-and-thrifted#post-2295954 Mon, 12 Dec 2022 03:28:24 +0000 Jonesy 2295954@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fantastic jacket and really touching story--you had to have it :)!

I'll admit that it was thoughts of emulating the vibe of the Tibi bomber jacket that led me to try it on, but the embroidery detail was the clincher.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-1211-old-and-thrifted#post-2295949 Mon, 12 Dec 2022 02:58:12 +0000 Suz 2295949@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OK, that bomber is fantastic!!
