Always thought they looked quite edgy. &nbsp;I refer to these ones as my school shoes ha.</p> <p>Lisa I like the look of a more relaxed item falling below a more structured one. &nbsp;I think in some respects it's a no brainer to layer unstructured pieces but to layer unstructured and structured makes for very interesting combos. &nbsp;I actually think it's more about the proportions. &nbsp;Get those right and you are good to go ...he he I have spent way ore than 8 seconds on this lol. &nbsp;And thanks for the lovely compliment re the shoes. &nbsp;Please don't look up 'dag' or 'daggy', it means something yucky ha ha. &nbsp;It is a very Aussie word.</p> <p>Shedev, thanks so much. Sophistication... I like.</p> <p>Staysfit, thank you. &nbsp;What is your other HEWI?? &nbsp;The jacket is a very soft leather and very comfortable to wear. &nbsp;Some leathers are kind of thick and bulky and uncomfortable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-leather-blazer-lace-ups#post-1532646 Mon, 03 Aug 2015 21:19:38 +0000 Staysfit 1532646@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bravo! You have managed to get two of my HEWI's in one! A leather blazer! It looks amazing on you!! :-). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-leather-blazer-lace-ups#post-1532622 Mon, 03 Aug 2015 20:50:55 +0000 shedev 1532622@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this look , very svelte and sophisticated. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-leather-blazer-lace-ups#post-1532557 Mon, 03 Aug 2015 19:14:47 +0000 Anonymous 1532557@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Blazer over skirt looks well-proportioned to me. &nbsp;I like the use of navy here too. &nbsp;I was thinking about the wearing of a tailored jacket over a top that hangs out below- and how that looks........because I did that too recently with a fitted blazer and fringed top. &nbsp;I liked it, but secretly wondered if that was the wrong pairing and if a top is going to hang down below, the jacket should be less tailored....if you know what I mean. (mine had a vent too) &nbsp;It's one of those fashion questions I have spent more than 8 seconds thinking about &nbsp;What are your thoughts on it? &nbsp;The shoes are cool - but I can't help but think that you are one of few who could pull them off without looking daggy. &nbsp;I know am going to use that word every chance I get &nbsp;They look great here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-leather-blazer-lace-ups#post-1532400 Mon, 03 Aug 2015 15:08:52 +0000 Word Lily 1532400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love a good square toe, and the jacket looks great here — so supple! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-leather-blazer-lace-ups#post-1532397 Mon, 03 Aug 2015 15:06:21 +0000 Anonymous 1532397@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This all works brilliantly Deb! I too like the proportions of the jacket with the skirt and the shoes are kind of cool! </p> <p>Looking good Deb. Stay warm!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-leather-blazer-lace-ups#post-1532297 Mon, 03 Aug 2015 12:02:42 +0000 Deborah 1532297@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Maneera:). I love my boots but sometimes I just need a change and it's so cold pumps are not an option yet.</p> <p>Brooklyn, try the jacket with a skirt and I will be interested to see what you think. I am hoping I get a bit more wear out of the blazer now. Most of my skirts are quite slim line. I don't think the jacket would work so well with a fuller skirt.</p> <p>Lyn, I hear you in the scarves. At the office scarf and jacket are part of the outfit and don't get removed. Doesn't help we are on a very old and cold building. It has made me want to add to my scarf collection lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-leather-blazer-lace-ups#post-1532257 Mon, 03 Aug 2015 07:04:01 +0000 Lyn D. 1532257@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I understand how you needed to wear your scarf indoors today, my scarfs have become less an add-on and more an integral part of my outfits for added warmth this Winter.<br />I am not sure about the shoes, but I think they work with the bare leg and your outfit, because the overall impression is of someone who is obviously very thoughtful and stylish.<br />With pants on anyone else I might think 'daggy' ;)<br />I hope you don't think <i>&nbsp;</i>I am a weird lemming, but I found the split-back jumper at Myer last week for 50% off the sale $ and the last in my size, so it came home with me. I am looking to you for some styling ideas! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-leather-blazer-lace-ups#post-1532244 Mon, 03 Aug 2015 05:32:15 +0000 Brooklyn 1532244@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the shoes are a great updated 90s look, and a fun change. The&nbsp;jacket works well with the skirt, as does the blue top. It's interesting that you say&nbsp;the jacket seems to&nbsp;work better with a skirt than it does with pants. I have a similar style&nbsp;jacket that is also a bit of an orphan -&nbsp;I think I will have to&nbsp;try it out with a skirt! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-leather-blazer-lace-ups#post-1532215 Mon, 03 Aug 2015 02:22:00 +0000 Maneera 1532215@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ive gotten really used to seeing you in boots, Deb! But I have to say that these lace ups look just as amazing ---- a welcome change, perhaps? </p> <p>Love the navy and black scheme, as always. You look very polished and the blazer does work brilliantly with the proportions here. I'm a huge fan of his navy split back sweater....such a great length to wear with skirts. </p> <p>Be rest assured----you look amazing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-leather-blazer-lace-ups#post-1532206 Mon, 03 Aug 2015 02:07:23 +0000 Deborah 1532206@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Ladies,</p> <p>Had to go to work for a few hours this morning as I have moved my hours around this week to facilitate school drop off and pick up while DH is away on a retreat:)</p> <p>It is still very cold here, and my office is even colder lol!</p> <p>My outfit actually started with the shoes today. &nbsp;I woke up wanting to wear lace ups! &nbsp;These are by Diana Ferrari and I love them. &nbsp;I have always had a thing for lace ups with a square toe. &nbsp;This is the second pair I have owned (I wore the others to the ground in the 90's!!). &nbsp;But they don't get worn often enough. I seem to forget they are there :(</p> <p>So... started with the shoes, added tights, Metalicus skirt and Navy Split back sweater. &nbsp;Pulled out the leather blazer which is also a bit of an orphan and really liked the proportions. &nbsp;I think that maybe this jacket works best with skirts rather than pants and that is why I haven't worn it much. During the cooler months I am in pants and leggings all the time.</p> <p>I actually left the scarf and jacket on while in the office. &nbsp;Too cold to remove anything!!</p> <p>Thanks for looking. &nbsp;What do you think re the jacket? &nbsp;Good length for skirts? And I hope my shoes aren't too 'daggy' &nbsp;(i.e. uncool, not trendy) lol.</p> <p>xxx Deborah</p> <p>&nbsp;ps. &nbsp;excuse my buffy hair, only three weeks in and I need a trim:(</p>
