I am thrilled you all feel the proportions are working here. I have been concerned I may have made a mistake buying this jacket. My next attempt is going to be the jacket over my blue denim straight leg jeans...fingers crossed.</p> <p>Dianthus thanks for the lovely compliment. I have my mums legs...sounds funny I know but even now in her early 70's my mum has lovely slender legs.</p> <p>Thistle thanks for the suggestions. I will try them out.</p> <p>Una, hope to see your dress tomorrow..will be looking for your post:)</p> <p>So much love for cobalt at the moment:). I have four things in cobalt, this skirt, a blouse/tunic, jeans and crop (don't tell Angie) pants but none of the cobalts are quite the same! I was planning a column of cobalt but maybe it's not to be!</p> <p>And thank you all for your very kind comments. I am constantly overwhelmed by not only your outer beauty but you inner beauty expressed on your communications on the<br /> Forum xxx </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-and-stripes#post-749951 Wed, 17 Oct 2012 10:00:41 +0000 lyn67 749951@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the new siloutte, you cannot go wrong with such a quality item, and of course, the cobalt skirt:-) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-and-stripes#post-749820 Wed, 17 Oct 2012 02:29:57 +0000 catgirl 749820@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is such a perfect color combo - I may copy with my cobalt dress tomorrow. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-and-stripes#post-749814 Wed, 17 Oct 2012 02:27:38 +0000 Transcona Shannon 749814@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't know how you do it day after day Deborah - you always look so put together and positively stunning.

Either a cobalt necklace as Carro recommended, or perhaps a contrasting color like coral to really bring the focus inside the stripes? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-and-stripes#post-749708 Wed, 17 Oct 2012 01:08:21 +0000 Mona 749708@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love this outfit. something about black and white and cobalt makes me sing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-and-stripes#post-749704 Wed, 17 Oct 2012 01:01:23 +0000 Day Vies 749704@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love love love this color combination especially with the graphic stripes.

Thank you. I will try that when I get home tonight. This skirt is one that I normally wear with a blouse untucked but perhaps I could belt the blouse over the skirt? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-and-stripes#post-749610 Tue, 16 Oct 2012 23:13:23 +0000 Angie 749610@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hereby crown you Queen Always Gorgeous! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-and-stripes#post-749608 Tue, 16 Oct 2012 23:12:12 +0000 Caro in Oz 749608@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deborah, I think you look lovely (as always) but if you want to play - I know I always do - I would take off the necklace &amp; try a thin cobalt or other bright coloured belt at the waist. Imo that would take the eye away from the outside of your body to the inside &amp; also accent your waist. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-and-stripes#post-749606 Tue, 16 Oct 2012 23:07:35 +0000 annagybe 749606@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks good </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-and-stripes#post-749602 Tue, 16 Oct 2012 23:05:41 +0000 bj1111 749602@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>so great. that striped jacket is already a workhorse! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-cobalt-and-stripes#post-749591 Tue, 16 Oct 2012 23:00:22 +0000 Deborah 749591@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Ladies,</p> <p>Finally debuting my new striped jacket. I fell in love with this jacket and was very excited to see how good Lyn D looks in hers:)</p> <p><a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-with-petal-and-leopard-nails-by-dd" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....ails-by-dd</a></p> <p>Given this jacket falls at the widest part of my hip, I have been a little challenged with getting the right bottom layer and I'm hoping I have the proportions ok here.</p> <p>I have discovered this cut of jacket seems to work best on me with skirts or straight leg pants.</p> <p>I do think a slightly fitted jacket with nipped in waist is the best look for me bit it's nice to have the option of a different silhouette.</p> <p>Thanks for looking and your thoughts and suggestions much appreciated.</p> <p>xxxDeborah </p>
