I love the jacket! And it seems to me that it could be worn with a lot of bottoms, I think I&nbsp;would wear it a lot.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110587 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 06:19:33 +0000 Ariadne 1110587@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is like a poem or a fantasy novel come to life in clothing.&nbsp;I'm stunned, in the best way. &nbsp;Now I need to go back through your other posts to see more of your style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110547 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 04:54:28 +0000 Neel 1110547@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh gosh! That's just stunning. You have unique style and it suits you completely! I too think this jacket would be stunner with less volume down. And the length makes it perfect for pants, skirts and dresses!</p> <p>I think everyone should own at least one piece that is so crazy that only they can wear to perfection :). How's that for a style statement? Like Angie's this jacket :)<br /> <a href="http://youlookfab.com/2013/10/01/colour-blocked-and-graphic-for-fall/" rel="nofollow">http://youlookfab.com/2013/10/.....-for-fall/</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110535 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 04:40:53 +0000 catgirl 1110535@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Absolutely jaw-dropping.

That jacket is exquisite. The color looks fantastic on you and I <i>love</i> the crazypants paring. I could also see it with basically all types of regular pants and a pencil skirt, as others have suggested. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110323 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 01:47:30 +0000 Greyscale 1110323@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>There are definitely tailors who could do that well. It's a really simple alteration. There are two in the financial district who I've had recommended. I have the names written down somewhere. (Jeremy's Department Store has a list of recommended tailors for repairing their damaged designer&nbsp;items, which is where I got one name.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110289 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 01:24:54 +0000 Diana 1110289@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>&lt;sigh of relief&gt;. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110286 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 01:23:35 +0000 CocoLion 1110286@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's really nice to see something so very high fashion!! &nbsp;Looks fantastic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110283 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 01:22:49 +0000 Jacky 1110283@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I definitely wouldn't bring it to bracelet length - I'd probably shorten them to halfway down my palm (I think they're currently at my knuckles, but I'm not sure. I'm also pulling my shoulders back in that picture more than I normally do - I slouch a lot! - so it's possible they look longer than they usually are too). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110282 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 01:22:30 +0000 columbine(erin) 1110282@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow. You own this look! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110270 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 01:17:09 +0000 Diana 1110270@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For the record I would keep the sleeves as is. I like the drama of the long length, and they are slim which keeps it from being overwhelming. I should also state here that I absolutely detest bracelet length sleeves so please don't tell me if you decide to do that to this amazing jacket! I shall be sad.... </p> <p>And high five, Juliejohn! I totally thought of samurais too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110264 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 01:08:50 +0000 Jacky 1110264@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, thanks, all! You've definitely boosted my confidence in this outfit :D</p> <p>I've tried the jacket over skinny jeans before, but I was worried that the jacket made my shoulders look too broad and that the contrast was sort of strange. I've worn it over this dress before <a href="http://images.bergdorfgoodman.com/ca/1/products/mx/BGT4D5L_mx.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://images.bergdorfgoodman......D5L_mx.jpg</a>, and it worked really well but isn't very casual (I wore it for a wedding). I've not tried it with a pencil skirt, but I've got a couple in my closet I could try it with!</p> <p>I've not really thought about taking the sleeves in because I'm worried about taking an item this expensive to a tailor. I live in SF - can anyone recommend a tailor in the area I could trust with it? I do like my sleeves long, but I guess that&nbsp; usually works better with less structured/more casual things like hoodies.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110241 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 00:55:08 +0000 Suz 1110241@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I adore this. <b>ADORE!!!! </b>The colour, the shape, and no, those pants don't look crazy, unless you mean crazy awesome!&nbsp;</p> <p>I, too, would shorten the jacket's sleeves a bit. </p> <p>I hope you felt wonderful in this. You ought to.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110230 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 00:49:18 +0000 Sarah A 1110230@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Crazy amazing orphan pairing! The jacket is fantastic (and since i'm new to following fashion i havent looked at Haider Ackermann before but will now!). This outfit has so much movement and richness, I definitely look forward to seeing more of your posts! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110226 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 00:47:54 +0000 Caro in Oz 1110226@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>:) Jacky. I forgot to say before - have you tried the jacket with jeans or shorts or culottes? Do you wear dresses? It could look great over a simple dress too.&nbsp;I think dressing it down could really work well.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110225 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 00:47:20 +0000 Angie 1110225@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the jacket with the black trousers too. You need a slightly shorter sleeve length though. To my eye anyway - what do you think?&nbsp;</p> <p>Have you tried the same jacket over skinny jeans or a black pencil skirt?&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110219 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 00:42:30 +0000 JulieJohn 1110219@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well hello, Mrs. Fancypants!</p> <p>There is something that reminds me of old-style samurai clothing here, especially from the back. Something almost quaint and old-fashioned in amongst all that drama, and that juxtaposition makes me very happy.</p> <p>I dig that white blouse on you too, you have a lovely silhouette in that.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110209 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 00:37:48 +0000 Janet 1110209@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it! Your style is a welcome breath of fresh air. And I love the crazypants. Can't wait to see more from you.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110205 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 00:36:00 +0000 Eliza 1110205@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow. Double-take worthy. The color of the jacket is so beautiful and the whole look is compelling. Well done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110197 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 00:29:47 +0000 E 1110197@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG I love this! (I loved Greyscale in the trousers too &amp; totally want a pair for myself.) Like Diana, I'd wear the jacket with anything: more casual bottoms would tone it down a bit, but you own that look. You wear it, it doesn't wear you, so go out confidently. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110152 Wed, 11 Dec 2013 00:04:10 +0000 Greyscale 1110152@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh yeah, and I think the difference in how we wore the same pants really shows our different styles perfectly. I'm way too minimalist for that awesome jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110145 Tue, 10 Dec 2013 23:59:22 +0000 Greyscale 1110145@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm so glad you found a way to make both of these work for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110141 Tue, 10 Dec 2013 23:56:22 +0000 Jacky 1110141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Caro: I think the jacket overall is pretty impractical, so I'm not sure that the sleeves really get in the way I do tend to like my sleeves longer than most as well! I've actually tried to scrunch them up like the model in the picture, and as best as I can tell, the model has sticks for forearms, because I can't get them more than halfway up and they don't stay there at all :/ </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110140 Tue, 10 Dec 2013 23:53:49 +0000 Emily 1110140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, you are making those crazy pants WORK! &nbsp;They are the most delightful flavour of crazy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110137 Tue, 10 Dec 2013 23:51:38 +0000 Nicole D 1110137@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Crazygood look for you. I feel like you could wear this anywhere and look appropriate, it is so unique. &nbsp;Well, maybe you would look out of place on a ski hill...but if you add a beanie, it might work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110136 Tue, 10 Dec 2013 23:49:13 +0000 Caro in Oz 1110136@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Amazing silhouette. I love&nbsp;Haider Ackermann!</p> <p>This is <b>me </b>if you don't agree please ignore The only thing I would change is the sleeve length - I know they&nbsp;add drama but they look so impractical &amp; feel a tad overwhelming.&nbsp;Love the shirt too </p> <p></p> <p>ETA ah I just looked at the link - they have the sleeves scrunched in the stock photo &amp; I think it looks great.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-how-i-learned-to-stop-worrying-and-love-the-crazypants#post-1110094 Tue, 10 Dec 2013 23:19:31 +0000 Parsley 1110094@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, wow, wow!<br />That jacket is SO.
