They seem too big IMHO. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-todays-ffbo-and-an-epaulette-question#post-968428 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 19:48:02 +0000 pil 968428@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do they unbutton? If so, you could undo them and hang to the back for pictures to give you and idea of how it would look without them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-todays-ffbo-and-an-epaulette-question#post-968387 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 17:58:44 +0000 Diana 968387@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, that's a great point. When my hair was long, it mostly covered up the epaulettes so they didn't bug me. But now they are on full display.</p> <p>They should be pretty easy to remove, as they're only stitched on at one spot. There is also a small loop (like a belt loop), not sure whether I'll need to remove that too.</p> <p>Angie, I don't own too much pink but I like it as long as its not too pastel. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-todays-ffbo-and-an-epaulette-question#post-968365 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 17:37:44 +0000 Suz 968365@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your hair!&nbsp;</p> <p>As for the epaulettes, it would look good without them....and if your hair is swinging into them, maybe you'd feel better without. I have noticed that when I change my hair, different detailing may bother me.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-todays-ffbo-and-an-epaulette-question#post-968325 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 16:52:07 +0000 Angie 968325@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the epaulettes :). But I would like the style as much without them. Your call. </p> <p>LOVING your hair! I did not know that you liked pink too. Fab outfit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-todays-ffbo-and-an-epaulette-question#post-968307 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 16:28:12 +0000 Astrid 968307@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also vote remove, if possible. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-todays-ffbo-and-an-epaulette-question#post-968304 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 16:26:36 +0000 rute 968304@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Remove them!<br />Love your shoes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-todays-ffbo-and-an-epaulette-question#post-968301 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 16:25:25 +0000 Mary Beth (formerly LBD) 968301@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, remove gets my vote, if there's a way to do it without leaving obvious "something's missing" marks on the garment! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-todays-ffbo-and-an-epaulette-question#post-968299 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 16:23:22 +0000 Sona 968299@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would remove the epaulettes: I agree they are too long/big and make the jacket look ill fitting/ cheap in the sense that attention to detail while making the garment was not quite on the spot. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-todays-ffbo-and-an-epaulette-question#post-968276 Mon, 01 Jul 2013 15:56:07 +0000 Diana 968276@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Today's WIW is a FFBO that I think you've seen before but I'm showing it so I can ask about the epaulettes on the capejacket.&nbsp; Do you think I should remove them?&nbsp; They are kind of huge - almost 2" wide, and they go all the way to the dropped shoulder seam so they are very long too.&nbsp; Are they overwhelming on me or just too much with everything else going on with this jacket? </p> <p>Catherine Malandrino capejacket, Tulle top, Radcliffe jeans, Born oxfords </p>
