I'm flattered that I inspired some of you! I hope I get to see some copycats soon...</p> <p>Shannon, yes, the Docs are breaking in nicely. They're still a little stiff but it doesn't start to bug me until the end of the day, and they get better every time I wear them. That Wonder Balsam that Angie recommended really helps.</p> <p>Rachy, hee, you crack me up. #2 IS quite minimal for me, I think because of the color scheme. But it didn't actually feel minimal... maybe because all the rips in the jeans are kind of ALGO on their own.</p> <p>Jeanne, I know what you mean about the first blazer. It doesn't actually feel tight, but I think it's the button position that is making it look like it's pulling a tiny bit. (Kind of like how even button downs with extra room gape on me). I prefer this blazer open, I think, but the dress required that I close it (to hide bra straps above the strapless dress). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-two-more-blazers-denim-and-pinstripes#post-788661 Wed, 05 Dec 2012 01:15:31 +0000 Jjsloane 788661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have to agree with the #2 love. Your pose says you love it too.<br /> I like the combination of patterns with 1, but the blazer looks a teensy bit tight. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-two-more-blazers-denim-and-pinstripes#post-788613 Wed, 05 Dec 2012 00:21:04 +0000 Emily 788613@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They are both great but I especially love 2-3, the cut of the jacket is gorgeous on you and I love what you did with the layered shirttail/peplum. Lovely </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-two-more-blazers-denim-and-pinstripes#post-788561 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 23:23:48 +0000 rachylou 788561@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both are beautiful. You are indeed very pretty in that lighter grey - that would be a very hard shade for me to wear!</p> <p>Ok, but I do prefer #1. #2 is so... minimal.... it disturbs me. Lol. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-two-more-blazers-denim-and-pinstripes#post-788552 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 23:12:27 +0000 annagybe 788552@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I may have to copy #2. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-two-more-blazers-denim-and-pinstripes#post-788517 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 21:32:18 +0000 Transcona Shannon 788517@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just gasped out loud at your second outfit! Oh my goodness Diana - that is so flattering and fabulous on you! I adore the juxtaposition of a buttoned up tailored blazer with ripped jeans and Docs. Are your Docs breaking in nicely for you now? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-two-more-blazers-denim-and-pinstripes#post-788515 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 21:29:41 +0000 Caro in Oz 788515@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love them both. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-two-more-blazers-denim-and-pinstripes#post-788378 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 18:31:37 +0000 kellygirl 788378@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both of these are super duper. Love the pattern mixing in 1--the tights are brilliant and I love the light boots in this. The blazer with the torn jeans has just the right mix of polish and rugged elements. The Doc's are amazing in this too. SO want to copy this! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-two-more-blazers-denim-and-pinstripes#post-788353 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 17:45:32 +0000 Anonymous 788353@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love 2 -- I have a look similar planned for later this week </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-two-more-blazers-denim-and-pinstripes#post-788300 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 17:03:41 +0000 catgirl 788300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are very inspiring! I am also a fan of the dressy + ripped look. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-two-more-blazers-denim-and-pinstripes#post-788296 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 16:52:51 +0000 Tina.b 788296@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look fabulous in blazers, they really accentuate your great shape. Gorgeous outfits! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-two-more-blazers-denim-and-pinstripes#post-788294 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 16:46:42 +0000 rae 788294@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ripped jeans and Docs! Woot woot woot! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-two-more-blazers-denim-and-pinstripes#post-788293 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 16:38:58 +0000 Suz 788293@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh - love #2 especially! But I also like the fit of blazer 1 on you a lot. I do understand the issue with denim jackets....mine get less wear as well, but once I added a few NON denim pants to the rotation, it really helped me choose them! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-two-more-blazers-denim-and-pinstripes#post-788290 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 16:35:40 +0000 Diana 788290@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Angie! I thought you would like the second outfit when I was putting it together!</p> <p>Mani, the challenge is just to wear all my (indoor, winter-appropriate) jackets in a row (although I skipped sunday because I didn't leave the house). And, um, it is not challenging at all, so maybe I should not call it that. =P </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-two-more-blazers-denim-and-pinstripes#post-788257 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 15:34:33 +0000 ManidipaM 788257@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the pattern matching AND mixing with outfit #1. And the sheer cheek of ripped jeans with a white shirt and smart tailored blazer in #2. Both amongst your best, I think, Diana! Why on earth are these jackets being challenged? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-two-more-blazers-denim-and-pinstripes#post-788253 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 15:28:16 +0000 Angie 788253@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE #2</p> <p>One of your best! Those oyster colours are smashing with your complexion, Diana. I adore the tailored and dressy with the ripped. But - you knew that. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-two-more-blazers-denim-and-pinstripes#post-788234 Tue, 04 Dec 2012 15:12:05 +0000 Diana 788234@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are blazers 7 and 8 of 9 in my jacket challenge. It's been unseasonably warm these couple of days, so I am taking advantage by wearing things like lace tights and jeans full of big holes. </p> <p>1: WIW Monday 12.03.12 - This denim blazer is probably the least worn of the 9 jackets, and I was a little worried that it might be an orphan. I like the style and fit though. I realized that it doesn't get worn as much because I really, really hate denim on denim, even if the colors are different, and almost all my pants are jeans. So I think I just need to make an effort to wear it with skirts and dresses, like I have done here. The striped dress is actually strapless so it needs a jacket (or a top layered underneath) anyway. </p> <p>Esprit denim blazer, Olivia Moon dress, ??? lace tights, Remonte Dorndorf boots, Sydney Love subway map bag, necklace from Moira Klime (Etsy)</p> <p>2+3: WIW today 12.04.12 - I wanted to try a juxtaposition of my super casual, ripped up jeans and Docs with a more dressy blazer. What do you think? I like how the peplum of the jacket looks with the long shirttails sticking out under it! </p> <p>Nanette Lepore blazer, H&amp;M shirt, MEK jeans, Doc Marten Clemency boots. </p>
