I hear you on the length of the jacket. It looks fine to me in the photos, but I am sensitive about that issue on myself, as well -- there is a place that just feels too long and once a jacket hits it, I always struggle.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-karies-orphan-challenge#post-947463 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 17:24:14 +0000 CocoLion 947463@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What about wearing the cream jacket with the white pants and going for a tonal white out look? &nbsp;Mixing whites and creams, even adding another pale color like pale grey...(Just some experiment ideas.)</p> <p>Love love love the sweater in #1 -- it looks amazing with all three bottoms. &nbsp;True workhorse. &nbsp;I also adore the way you've cuffed the jeans in the third of these pictures; looks fresh and modern. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-karies-orphan-challenge#post-947458 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 17:08:54 +0000 Anonymous 947458@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the image on the right in Photo 2 -- great look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-karies-orphan-challenge#post-947382 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 15:07:48 +0000 TraceyLiz65 947382@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am still reeling from your busy Tuesday schedule.. I really think you had a great week here. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-karies-orphan-challenge#post-947352 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 13:59:19 +0000 bj1111 947352@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>thanks, suz. &nbsp;the jacket is more creamy ivory than white. &nbsp;i find it high contrast with my usual dark palette. &nbsp;but even with non darks, i still find it oddly high contrast. &nbsp;also, the jacket seems too long but not long enough, hitting me in an odd place.</p> <p>i haven't been able to distill the jacket into a formula and put it in a particular style box yet. &nbsp;i think i may &nbsp;need to make that jacket my next tweak exercise.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-karies-orphan-challenge#post-947343 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 13:47:53 +0000 Suz 947343@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the variety of silhouettes here, and good for you for trying the challenge! The blue and white sweater is great -- so fresh and fun. I like it with the harem pants for a casual day but it looks especially stunning with the white jeans, IMO.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>I think the white leather jacket is beautiful with both the red and blue pants! Are the sleeves a touch long, maybe? Why does it feel difficult to style, do you think? It's a gorgeous piece.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-karies-orphan-challenge#post-947330 Mon, 03 Jun 2013 13:33:57 +0000 bj1111 947330@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>a week's worth of orphans...mostly things that i liked but haven't gotten around to wearing in a long while.</p> <p>1. &nbsp;tues, all worn within 1 day. &nbsp;white pants around the house. &nbsp;ef harem pants for errands, maroon decrepit coated jeans to concert.</p> <p>2. &nbsp;wed, fri, sat (<a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-it-takes-a-ylf-village">thurday is here</a>)</p> <p>3. &nbsp;mon, when i started the orphan challenge. &nbsp;this is the outfit prompted the alpha 60 tweak request. &nbsp;i put on #2 for house, but changed into the leather jacket at the last minute.</p> <p>question: tweaks?<br />bonus K/P: &nbsp;how does the leather jacket play with the red pants or blue pants&nbsp;outfit? &nbsp;i am considering putting the jacket in holding, because i find it difficult to style. </p>
