I really didn't expect the jeans to get so much lovin' around here, but I really appreciate it!</p> <p>Thanks Harmonica, Meredith, Declawed Jaguar (yes, it's perfectly fine that you would still be diggn' the '70s version! they do have a certain charm!), Marley, Inge, and Sammi. Marley, it's so great to see you--I've missed seeing you around. </p> <p>The SO and I are actually going out to dinner and to a movie tonight, so I've got to go get some clothes on (not that I'm working at home in the nude, just in my lounge wear :). </p> <p>Thanks again so much! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing/page/2#post-673143 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 20:08:17 +0000 Anonymous 673143@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those jeans!! Gorgeous. Love the whole outfit head to toe. It looks effortlessly cool </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing/page/2#post-673118 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 19:51:53 +0000 Inge 673118@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These jeans are so very you, Jonesy! I would have no idea what to do with them if I saw them in the store, but totally love how you've combined them with a simple button-down here. (Looking forward to more outfits with these new cuties). The skirt outfit: I have no words for it, I am SO smitten with it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing/page/2#post-673097 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 19:30:41 +0000 Marley 673097@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jonesy - in my opinion, both of these outfits are perfect 10s. You rock those jeans - I want them! - and along with that chambray shirt and belt and shoes, your cool factor is going off the charts! The 2nd outfit is great too - I would have never thought to knot that shirt, let alone mix those two patterns together - you're showing me how its done - thank you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing/page/2#post-673095 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 19:22:46 +0000 DeclawedJaguar 673095@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Is it wrong to kind of like the version that's giving you all 70's flashbacks?</p> <p>ETA: Love the jeans on you, Jonesy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing/page/2#post-673091 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 19:19:13 +0000 Meredith1953 673091@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! Just WOW!!! I love both of these outfits on you and those sandals are KILLER! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing/page/2#post-673012 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 17:26:28 +0000 harmonica 673012@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very cool, fab and chic!

I guess the jeans aren't as polarizing as I thought they were :). </p> <p>Thanks Amy, Manidipa, San, Marianna, Jem, Deborah, Beth Ann, Laura, Anne, and Claire, for your thumbs up on the crazy denim! If anyone is interested, they are still available on yoox.com for a mere $85 :). Thanks to all who liked my hair too--my head feels so much lighter now!</p> <p>Aida, I have definitely been thinking about other pairings with these, and a jacket with a buttoned up shirt seems like a perfect match, once the weather cools off (if that ever happens!). Something silky and loose would work too, and I might swap that out for Saturday, if it's feeling too hot.</p> <p>Kellygirl and Sarah, I am right there with you in remembering the fab '70s stylings of toughskins and Woodstock-y patched denim! Sorry if I caused any harmful flashbacks!</p> <p>Sveta, I'm sure you will look fabulous on Saturday!! No worries there! Re. Mr. Plant: he passed away a few months ago, and this is the replacement plant, so that's why it looks so big :).</p> <p>Scarlet, thanks, and I love your term "Shoe Mountain." Sounds like the best amusement park ride ever, no?</p> <p>Thanks for your comments, Jean. I always appreciate hearing your thoughts.</p> <p>Jules, thanks! I'm sure you look ravishing in orange and blue! Re. the seams of the jeans: the patches of denim are just laid on top of the jeans, so there is double thickness in places, but the inside of the jeans is smooth just like regular pants, if that makes sense. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing/page/2#post-672856 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 14:12:33 +0000 Anonymous 672856@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ack! I would wear those jeans in a nano-second! I love these outfits. I think I need more drape-y blouse-y blouses. Thanks for showing us how it's done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing/page/2#post-672850 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 14:02:49 +0000 Anonymous 672850@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very nice! Effortlessly cool, as usual!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing/page/2#post-672839 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 13:53:04 +0000 RoseandJoan 672839@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the pattern mixed outfit would desperately enjoy a summer vacation to Edinburgh! The colours of that outfit form part of my summer capsule so I am actively plotting how to best recreate the look.</p> <p>Are the seams on the jeans comfortable Jonesy? They look fantastic. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing/page/2#post-672803 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 13:12:03 +0000 greenglove 672803@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are a trend-setter! I love what you do with pattern and silhouette. The jeans are great on you- I am not a fan on most women but you make them work, I think because there is a sophistication to your style that works in juxtaposition to the jeans. I always love to see your inventive pattern mixing- fun post!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing/page/2#post-672789 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 12:16:33 +0000 Laura 672789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You're not that far from me, right? I hop in the car, drive a few hours, arrive at Chez Jonesy .... and steal those amazing jeans!!</p> <p>Incredible, all of it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing/page/2#post-672727 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 06:18:06 +0000 Scarlet 672727@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE both of these, you silly lady! Gosh I think they are very flattering too. The jeans are fun, and you know I like textured jeans. The orange and indigo is TDF, the mix just makes me so happy. Love the shoe choice too. I am jealous of the fun time you and Sveta will have at least I can look forward to pictures of Shoe Mountain. Love your hair both cropped and longer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing/page/2#post-672713 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 04:58:52 +0000 Beth Ann 672713@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Marvelous! Both of these looks are stellar -- fashion forward without making you a fashion victim. The jeans are a perfect fit and lots of fun --- sophisticated whimsy. And I love the hip knot on you!</p> <p>Thanks for the closeup of the pattern-mixing. You're right about the indigo anchoring the mix. Fresh and pretty, without being cutesy.</p> <p>Happy Summer! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing#post-672659 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 03:26:49 +0000 Deborah 672659@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jonesy I don't think I would have looked twice at the those jeans in a catalogue on on the rack, but wow they look fabulous on you. And your pattern mixing as always in inspired. You and Aida are rocking the curly bob. The shorter look on you is gorgeous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing#post-672648 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 03:17:06 +0000 Sveta 672648@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh yes! I will get to see those cool jeans in person! Can't wait!!!<br /> Darn, now I have to work really hard to come up with something cool to wear on Saturday too...<br /> I LOVE those jeans and wish I can wear them as well as you do, Jonesy. I am also taking notes of your low shirt knot with a pencil skirt...<br /> BTW, looks like the heat and humidity are very good for Mr.Plant - it looks much bigger than back in March.<br /> Love the shorter hair too - it is a hair crop week on YLF! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing#post-672613 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 02:25:39 +0000 sarah 672613@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*laughing* with Kelly. I was thinking of those patchwork jeans that were all the rage back when I was in, er, elementary school or junior high. I can't remember - but it was the 70s. Do you remember them? Anyway, I was relieved that they were not those. You look GREAT as always. I love, love, love, the skirt with the knotted shirt.</p> <p>There's all sorts of fab hair chopping going on around YLF these days! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing#post-672601 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 02:11:42 +0000 Jem 672601@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was picturing a madras type patchwork but was pleasantly surprised. Those jeans are the coolest ever! I'd love some of those and you look outstanding in them!!! I love your other outfit, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing#post-672589 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 01:50:40 +0000 marianna 672589@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Omg! I also LOVE those jeans! Woweee! So cool, and the fit is so perfect. You look fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing#post-672584 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 01:46:03 +0000 kellygirl 672584@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had imagined like a quilt. Believe me, what I imagined was not pretty. Yours are totally fab!</p> <p>ETA: I grew up with Sear's Toughskins with patches everywhere. It has scarred me for life I'm afraid. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing#post-672565 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 01:35:22 +0000 san 672565@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love those jeans on you. What a great new way to express your style! You have awesome style always. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing#post-672564 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 01:35:04 +0000 Aida 672564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ohhh those patchwork jeans are awesome!! The back pockets being asymmetrical is SO fun. I love it with the faded chambray shirt and the booties, such perfect styling. Would also look fab with a dressy silk shirt, or a strict buttoned-all-the-way-up blouse and blazer. Yum! They make me want a pair. And your second outfit... I think that's the first time I've seen a knotted shirt that doesn't look sweet. Impressive!! Loving the new, bouncier 'do </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing#post-672558 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 01:32:24 +0000 ManidipaM 672558@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jonesy, you rock! Waaaay too cool for school!</p> <p>LOVE the jeans, love the retro pattern mixing in the mod silhouette! And gorgeous hair --- I'd be snapping my head around all the time if I had hair like yours and that cut... just to feel the curls bounce! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing#post-672529 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 01:01:06 +0000 Amy 672529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those jeans are to die for! I love how you styled them. </p> <p>Your pattern-mixing outfit is fun too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing#post-672525 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 00:56:35 +0000 MsMary 672525@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*blushing* </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-patchwork-denim-pattern-mixing#post-672523 Thu, 19 Jul 2012 00:55:45 +0000 Jonesy 672523@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh thank you, MaryK!
