Suz, I think that I will hold off until next fall to decide about shortening the trousers. I'm on medication with the side affect of weight gain and wonder if that will happen and if these or many of my clothes will still fit.<br /> Approprio, I had not thought of wearing the blazer with my gold jeans. Thank you for the idea. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-blazer/page/2#post-1615002 Fri, 12 Feb 2016 14:36:21 +0000 approprio 1615002@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Loved this when you posted it in the other thread, love it here too! I think this could look even more fab with your gold jeans. Have you tried that? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-blazer/page/2#post-1614986 Fri, 12 Feb 2016 14:20:33 +0000 anchie 1614986@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Such a harmony of neutral colors.

I agree with keeping and altering the trousers for the length.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-blazer#post-1614900 Fri, 12 Feb 2016 06:09:27 +0000 Anonymous 1614900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do have EF slim knit trousers in a light grey, white cropped jeans, and dark denim cropped skinny jeans.&nbsp; Any may work.&nbsp; I will have to try.&nbsp; thank you for the idea.&nbsp; As to the trousers I am wearing, I have been deciding whether or not to keep them at all.&nbsp; Right now I am leaning toward keeping and having them altered because it is so hard to find trousers that are not baggy in the rear.&nbsp; What I question about these trousers is their strange waistband with two sets of belt loops, a set for a wide belt on top and narrow ones underneath.&nbsp; They are substantial and make a statement, so I wear something long over them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-blazer#post-1614896 Fri, 12 Feb 2016 06:00:14 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1614896@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nicely done, Joy! I, too, like the outfit best without the scarf, but understand the need for a warm neck!<br />Since you are debating the trousers and wanting to get them altered, I wonder if you have a pair of ankle pants or slim trousers that will work when the weather warms a bit? (I'm thinking of the inspiration photo that Angie showed, and I thought maybe you had something like that. Perhaps even a skinny jean.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-blazer#post-1614863 Fri, 12 Feb 2016 04:11:30 +0000 Anonymous 1614863@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lucy and Shevia, thank you so much.

This is a fabulous outfit with or without the scarf. I think the belt is a fine width.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-blazer#post-1614797 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 23:59:48 +0000 Anonymous 1614797@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Linder and Mirjana, thank you for your helpful comments. The trousers need to go to the tailor. The waist also needs to be taken in as they slip down during the day.<br /> Deborah, thank you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-blazer#post-1614776 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 23:14:06 +0000 Deborah 1614776@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is just stunning Joy. &nbsp;I do like the scarf version too. &nbsp;You have nailed it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-blazer#post-1614755 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 22:52:54 +0000 Anonymous 1614755@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Griffin, thank you for looking. Yes, this belt is at my natural waist but I think belting lower would look better. All y jackets are too short but I could experiment with a tunic shirt or even a simple belt less trench. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-blazer#post-1614748 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 22:49:07 +0000 gryffin 1614748@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy - this is a beautiful outfit!! &nbsp;Wonderful on you. &nbsp;I love how you have pattern mixed belt to jacket - very elegant!! &nbsp;The jacket I have on my thread is 33" fingertip length on my and the belt I'm wearing sits much lower. &nbsp;Is that not your natural waist? &nbsp;It looks by eye about there. &nbsp;I have my belt sitting right above my hip bones. &nbsp;But this is gorgeous on you, just a different look. &nbsp;I wish I could do that and look good!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-blazer#post-1614706 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 20:39:06 +0000 Mirjana 1614706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! Great outfit, I like the colors , # 4 is my favorite and agree sans scarf and trousers&nbsp; need a little shortening. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-blazer#post-1614660 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 19:06:05 +0000 Anonymous 1614660@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like #4, colors are great with your hair and skin tone. &nbsp;I would shorten the slacks. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-belted-blazer#post-1614647 Thu, 11 Feb 2016 18:45:21 +0000 Anonymous 1614647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Viva, Mary, Sterling and Rachylou. I had not intended to wear the scarf but needed it for warmth.

I agree that these trousers need to be shortened since I no longer wear heels with them.
