I think #3 would look great with a traditional cardi -- with sleeves scrunched and the plaid cuffs folded over top the cuff of the sweater. Kind of sorority girl wearing her boyfriend's shirt look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-boots-and-blazers#post-776231 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 14:53:43 +0000 Lisa 776231@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy-Thanks! Great idea about the white blazer, I'll pair with with the shirt in #4 and repost in another WIW. </p> <p>Suz-Thanks! The blazer is BCBG from last year. It was my splurge purchase for the summer season. The blazer is woven for the body and half of the sleeves. The back half of the sleeves (that you can't see in the photo) is actually knit. This makes the blazer really comfy but it has more structure than my "all knit" blazers do.</p> <p>Modgrl-Thanks! It took me a few years to find my current white blazer. I wanted something with some type of texture so I wouldn't look like a waiter in it. I only started wearing it "out of season" this year. I figured, why let it sit for 6 months right? And I just adore the green jeans, a nice change from my blues.</p> <p>Isis-Thanks! I hope you will post your white blazer outfit.</p> <p>Soniakatya-Thanks! I wear a lot of blazers. Last year striped blazers were abundant in stores and eventually the style wore me down. It's one of my favorite pieces right now.</p> <p>Aida-Thanks! I am just a boots and blazer kind of gal. Always the first two items I look at in stores.</p> <p>CocoLion-Thanks! It's interesting you mentioned boot contrast. I notice I try to tie in the boot color with the top half of my outfit. The stronger the contrast this year, the more I reach for the shorter boots. The less the contrast the more I am reaching for taller boots.</p> <p>Asingh and Kirti-Thanks!</p> <p>Mochi-Thanks! At work I wore a blazer and a scarf for a headshot. And the creative director really enjoyed that my outfit was "funky" because the blazer was cobalt and the scarf was bold colors and print.</p> <p>Atlantia-Thanks! I'll have to check out some varying top lengths with my blazers next time I'm in the stores. That's something I've never considered before. Neat idea!</p> <p>RunnerRae-Thanks! I do adore my blazers, it's the most abundant item in my closet after my jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-boots-and-blazers#post-776141 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 12:19:46 +0000 Raisin 776141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your striped blazer! I just ordered a summery one. All your outfits looks great, the blazers add such a nice edge. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-boots-and-blazers#post-776138 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 12:12:22 +0000 Atlantia 776138@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like all of these outfits, but #2 is my favorite. I think because I'm really fond of the length of blazer vs length of top. It seems really flattering to have an ever so slightly cropped jacket with a longer top. In fact, if you had a slightly longer top in #1, that would have been my favorite, because I really like the white. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-boots-and-blazers#post-776135 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 12:07:28 +0000 Mochi 776135@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I particularly love 2. Your outfits express your sense of fun and cheeky style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-boots-and-blazers#post-776067 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 07:24:50 +0000 Kirti 776067@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love all of these, especially the vibrant jacket in #2 </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-boots-and-blazers#post-776010 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 05:52:25 +0000 Asingh 776010@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What chic outfits, Lisa! I like the 2nd and the third one the best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-boots-and-blazers#post-776008 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 05:45:13 +0000 CocoLion 776008@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Aida #1 is perfect! I love your sweater in #4 and the unexpected plaid shirt underneath. And outfit #2 with the tall boots is super flattering. My personal preference with boots is when they are lower contrast with the pants as in #2, but I think when they are higher contrast as in #3 and #1 it is a more fashion-forward look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-boots-and-blazers#post-775979 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 04:45:36 +0000 Aida 775979@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You always rock boots+blazer looks Lisa! No exception here. But you know I am partial to #1 because that's one of my favorite blazers ever. Just love everything about that outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-boots-and-blazers#post-775976 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 04:37:42 +0000 soniakatya 775976@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Your outfits look great! My favorite is #3- the stripy blazer. It looks really great on! It's a nice way to break away from uniform colour blazers. I've been looking everywhere for one like it </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-boots-and-blazers#post-775947 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 03:53:34 +0000 Isis 775947@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is a great winter white in 1....I' m bookmarking this to try with my orphan white jacket!</p> <p>My fave though is 2... Love the colors and the sleek fit! YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-boots-and-blazers#post-775934 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 03:40:47 +0000 modgrl 775934@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Loving that winter white jacket in #1! I was obsessed with finding a white jacket for the last 3 summers. Finally found one but it ended up being an orphan. I should pull it out and make a winter white outfit out of it like this one. The green jeans are really fun too. Aren't they a nice change </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-boots-and-blazers#post-775924 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 03:30:50 +0000 Suz 775924@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am envious of that jacket in #1. It looks terrific on you and I like the texture. Is it a knit? Whatever it is, that ripple effect is lovely with the particular scarf you are wearing. I love Joy's idea to try it with the plaid shirt, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-boots-and-blazers#post-775920 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 03:24:48 +0000 Anonymous 775920@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have a great collection of jackets. My favorite is #2. I'd also like to see the white blazer in #1 with #4 in place of the cardigan. The green is so fresh. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-boots-and-blazers#post-775911 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 03:17:15 +0000 Lisa 775911@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Outfits:<br /> #1-White blazer and boots<br /> Blazer-BCBG, Knit Top-Express, Tank-Ann Taylor Loft, Corduroy Trouers-Banana Republic, Booties-Coconuts for Matisse, Scarf-Ann Taylor Loft</p> <p>#2-Green blazer and boots<br /> Blazer-Ambition, Knit Top-Express, Tank-Target, Jeans-AG 'Stilt', Boots-Civico 10 'Sportster Riding', Scarf-JCrew</p> <p>#3-Striped blazer and boots<br /> Blazer-Banana Republic, Knit Top-Express, Tank-Calvin Klein, Jeans-Blue Essence, Booties-Ugg 'Fabrizia'</p> <p>#4-Cardigan<br /> Shirt and Cardigan-BR, Jeans-Lucky Sweet n Straight, Booties-Ugg 'Fabrizia' </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-boots-and-blazers#post-775910 Fri, 16 Nov 2012 03:16:42 +0000 Lisa 775910@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi,</p> <p>Here are some recent outfits.</p> <p>I'm talking about one of my favorite outfits on my <a href="http://www.shoppingbrake.blogspot.com/2012/11/repeat-clothing-boots-and-blazers.html">blog, boots and blazers</a>.
