It's a&nbsp;BCBG (BCBGeneration) I got&nbsp;on sale. I added a catalog shot to my OP so you could ogle the details if desired. You know I'm a Rectangle who loves to play Hourglass when I can find the seaming to help me fake it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dark-but-not-particularly-dangerous-for-dog-walking-and-date-night#post-1082009 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 02:47:43 +0000 Anonymous 1082009@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay the jeans a nice, sure!

My standard silver drop earrings made the outfit feel too serious,&nbsp;but luckily I had something a little more lively around.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>Sveta,</b> I admit I think the thumbholes are cool too. I'm used to seeing them on athletic tops, so it's nice that that the jacket stole that touch since sporty style isn't a psychologically&nbsp;comfortable one for me even at the best (exercising) times! My arms are proportionately long,&nbsp;so don't abandon hope -- I feel sure&nbsp;"your" thumbholes are out there. ;)</p> <p><b>Joy,</b> my wavy hair reaches a tentacle toward you in thanks.&nbsp;It&nbsp;bosses me vs the other way around, and it certainly lets me know it prefers dry to rainy. <i>"When it's good, it's very good, and when it's bad, it's awful...."</i> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dark-but-not-particularly-dangerous-for-dog-walking-and-date-night#post-1081179 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 14:34:58 +0000 carambola 1081179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look terrific in dark colors!

Hooray for jeans which can be used for dog walking and date night with equal success!<br />The coat is really great to and I like the thumbholes, they look cool and comfy in the same time. This is an envy on my part because I can never find them with sleeves long enough for me :-(<br />The earrings truly look spectacular on you, nice date night touch! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-dark-but-not-particularly-dangerous-for-dog-walking-and-date-night#post-1081026 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 06:46:13 +0000 Vix 1081026@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Hi Peacechick, Neel, SDMom, Beth Ann, AJ, GoldenPig, Word Lily and Scarlet&nbsp;--</b></p> <p>Thank you all!&nbsp;Luckily I kept my balance while goofing around for that shot&nbsp;or I might have had to solict GP's professional advice vs style input. ;)</p> <p>I have to say channeling Emma Peel is about as "edgy" as I get but it's definitely a fun look.&nbsp;My pal, Mr Vix, and&nbsp;the dog all approved.</p> <p>The jacket was perfect for the (mercifully dry) outings and the knit panels make it super comfortable. I tried to get a shot showing the thumbholes...tied with the knit insets and the extensive seaming&nbsp;for my favorite design element.&nbsp;</p> <p>[I'm still getting used to the stiffness of the coated jeans but as you can see I can at least bend my legs in them, ha.]</p> <p>ps <b>Beth Ann, WLily and Scarlet&nbsp;--</b>&nbsp;an extra&nbsp;thanks for appreciating my earrings.&nbsp;After a few&nbsp;years of procrastinating&nbsp;I got them changed from screwback to post recently and wear them so much more now that I'm not worried about them sliding off my lobe.
