The proportions are perfect and your use of color is so flattering. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-red-tweed-jacket-and-bordeaux-cardi-plus-new-shoes#post-1998885 Mon, 04 Feb 2019 15:45:27 +0000 Katerina 1998885@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa P., thank you very much. It is helpful.&nbsp;</p> <p>I always struggle with this particular jacket. I like it a lot - the colour, the textures, the fit over the shoulders. But I struggle with the length. I always try to kind of extend it visually somehow and to hide my mid section. It cuts me off at the wrong place. The jacket is a part of a suit, actually. There is a matching skirt with a rather high waist and a zipper on the side. That skirt does not fit me very well anymore. I try to use the jacket, but it is not the first one I reach for.&nbsp;</p> <p>What to do? How to make a short jacket work with trousers? How to layer in a good way? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-red-tweed-jacket-and-bordeaux-cardi-plus-new-shoes#post-1998881 Mon, 04 Feb 2019 15:37:34 +0000 Katerina 1998881@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, thank you very much! You are so sweet.</p> <p>&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-red-tweed-jacket-and-bordeaux-cardi-plus-new-shoes#post-1998880 Mon, 04 Feb 2019 15:35:25 +0000 Katerina 1998880@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shevia, thank you very much. I feel the same way abut the bag, too.</p> <p>Bijou, thank you very much. The shoes are actually not super comfortable, I am contemplating sending them back for that reason... They are not bad, but I have some pumps which are more comfortable. These are a bit stiff in the leather. Question is if it is not worth to wait for the perfect pair ...&nbsp;</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-red-tweed-jacket-and-bordeaux-cardi-plus-new-shoes#post-1998879 Mon, 04 Feb 2019 15:29:44 +0000 Anonymous 1998879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both outfits are really beautiful on you - and I don't mind the yellow top under the red jacket at all! &nbsp;The red floral scarf is gorgeous, but I thought the same thing as l'abielle in that the jacket might be better with out the scarf? &nbsp;I realize I have said this before about your scarves, which are so much bigger and longer than any I wear - so it could just be my eye not being used to such dramatic long scarves . &nbsp;Take that for what it's worth &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-red-tweed-jacket-and-bordeaux-cardi-plus-new-shoes#post-1998878 Mon, 04 Feb 2019 15:23:23 +0000 Katerina 1998878@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>L'Abeille, thank you very much, it is really helpful. I tried to have the scarf tied shorter, the ends at the same level as the hem of the jacket. I thought it was not flattering, I enclose that picture here. The length of this jacket is difficult...</p> <p>&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-red-tweed-jacket-and-bordeaux-cardi-plus-new-shoes#post-1998852 Mon, 04 Feb 2019 14:31:26 +0000 Angie 1998852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE the first outfit especially. KILLER, and perfect for Chinese NY today.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-red-tweed-jacket-and-bordeaux-cardi-plus-new-shoes#post-1998811 Mon, 04 Feb 2019 13:18:45 +0000 Bijou 1998811@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Two beautiful outfits - I love how pretty the red and yellow look together, with the scarf tying it all together (pun intended)! As for outfit 2, that is classic Katerina - the new shoes are a great addition to your wardrobe. I hope they are as comfortable as they are stylish. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-red-tweed-jacket-and-bordeaux-cardi-plus-new-shoes#post-1998801 Mon, 04 Feb 2019 12:17:05 +0000 Jaime 1998801@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both outfits work beautifully! I did notice the big black bag as being the one thing I might change, but the overall effect is still excellent. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-red-tweed-jacket-and-bordeaux-cardi-plus-new-shoes#post-1998799 Mon, 04 Feb 2019 12:12:55 +0000 L'Abeille 1998799@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Outfit 1<br /> I love the yellow of the blouse peeking out under the red jacket. I think it's a perfect solution to extending the line of a jacket that feels too short. Although I love your use of scarves, and this one is stunning, I wonder how this outfit would look without it, or with it tied shorter so as not to interfere with the line of the jacket?</p> <p>Outfit 2<br /> Once again you amaze with your elegance in wide legs. This outfit took my breath away. My preference would be for a smaller more streamlined purse, I think the slouchy flares provide all the width on the bottom that this look needs.</p> <p>You are an inspiration as always. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-red-tweed-jacket-and-bordeaux-cardi-plus-new-shoes#post-1998790 Mon, 04 Feb 2019 11:00:31 +0000 Katerina 1998790@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jane, thank you very much for the kind words. My hair is far from striking - usually worn in a bun or a pony tail. It is cut straight across my back. I often think about a change, but this style is so low maintenance and comfortable, so I&nbsp; keep the same all the time.</p> <p>Brooklyn, thank you very much.</p> <p>Thank you very much, Mainelady.&nbsp;</p> <p>I am so glad you Fabbers like the red jacket. I struggle a bit with styling it, because it is a bit too short to be flattering on me.&nbsp;</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-red-tweed-jacket-and-bordeaux-cardi-plus-new-shoes#post-1998787 Mon, 04 Feb 2019 10:44:53 +0000 Mainelady 1998787@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You are the Queen of the Wide Leg! They look so elegant on you! Yes, I think you should try to wear the short red jacket more. It is beautiful and I love it paired with the yellow and the scarf. Your new shoes and the large handbag work well together. Beautiful Bordeaux! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-red-tweed-jacket-and-bordeaux-cardi-plus-new-shoes#post-1998777 Mon, 04 Feb 2019 09:23:40 +0000 Brooklyn 1998777@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fabulous x 2. The first is my fave. You are so original and stylish! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-red-tweed-jacket-and-bordeaux-cardi-plus-new-shoes#post-1998770 Mon, 04 Feb 2019 07:32:03 +0000 Jane 1998770@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Amazing! You wear wide legs so well. I love the red scarf especially. Katerina, I’d love to see how you look from the back! I’d love to see how your hair falls! Just saying because I bet you look striking! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-red-tweed-jacket-and-bordeaux-cardi-plus-new-shoes#post-1998769 Mon, 04 Feb 2019 07:21:40 +0000 Katerina 1998769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, SarahD8 and Joy, thank you very much.</p> <p>SarahD8, you are right. The shoes would work with the red scarf. I have a red and burgundy colour blocked bag, that could be a nice complement. Thanks for the idea. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-red-tweed-jacket-and-bordeaux-cardi-plus-new-shoes#post-1998767 Mon, 04 Feb 2019 06:33:29 +0000 Anonymous 1998767@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes. The yellow works! I like the first outfit best.<br /> Nobody does wide trousers better than you, wow! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-red-tweed-jacket-and-bordeaux-cardi-plus-new-shoes#post-1998728 Mon, 04 Feb 2019 01:03:21 +0000 SarahD8 1998728@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I LOVE the yellow with the red. Very spring-y look. And what a beautiful flowered scarf.<br />The second outfit is good too! The wide legs look really nice with your new shoes.<br />And actually I wonder if the new shoes would work with the red applique scarf too? Red and burgundy can be such an interesting tonal color combo.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-red-tweed-jacket-and-bordeaux-cardi-plus-new-shoes#post-1998716 Mon, 04 Feb 2019 00:00:21 +0000 Suz 1998716@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As usual, you nailed it! I love outfit #2 with the new shoes and the large bag -- it works to my eye. And the yellow in #1, while not expected, is happy and works well with the scarf. As others have said, you wear wide legs like nobody's business. So flowy and elegant, especially #2.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-red-tweed-jacket-and-bordeaux-cardi-plus-new-shoes#post-1998715 Sun, 03 Feb 2019 23:51:34 +0000 Katerina 1998715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gigi and Cardiff girl, thank you very much. I must try to wear the red jacket more often. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-red-tweed-jacket-and-bordeaux-cardi-plus-new-shoes#post-1998709 Sun, 03 Feb 2019 23:30:38 +0000 Cardiff girl 1998709@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That red jacket is just gorgeous and such an unexpected colour pairing with the yellow but it really works with the scarf tying everything together.Those new shoes look fab! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-red-tweed-jacket-and-bordeaux-cardi-plus-new-shoes#post-1998706 Sun, 03 Feb 2019 23:01:31 +0000 Gigi 1998706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfits! The shade of the red in outfit 1 is lovely.</p> <p>I think that the yellow works fine. It is unexpected but not jarring.</p> <p>In outfit 2, the pants are very flattering, and I think that the unstructured bag works very well against the very tailored outfit.</p> <p>Love the shoes! The color is gorgeous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-red-tweed-jacket-and-bordeaux-cardi-plus-new-shoes#post-1998699 Sun, 03 Feb 2019 22:32:17 +0000 Katerina 1998699@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you cjh for the analysis, very glad you like the outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-red-tweed-jacket-and-bordeaux-cardi-plus-new-shoes#post-1998695 Sun, 03 Feb 2019 22:09:50 +0000 cjh 1998695@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both outfits are fab.

The red jacket and scarf are beautiful and, why not yellow? The next outfit is my favorite, red patent shoes are awesome and with bordeaux cardi and wide leg pants fantastic. The bag is very interesting and you can wear large bag. </p>
