The cream and pink is so pretty and sophisticated on you and the bootcuts look like they were made for you. Wear them often! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-x2-shackets-and-bootcut-jeans#post-2229727 Wed, 06 Oct 2021 01:11:39 +0000 Bonnie 2229727@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love both of these outfits but #1 is my favorite. I have the same striped tee and have been looking for a topper to wear with it. The overshirt you are wearing is perfect and I'll be looking for something similar. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-x2-shackets-and-bootcut-jeans#post-2229709 Tue, 05 Oct 2021 21:40:15 +0000 Katerina 2229709@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the first outfit especially much, the wonderful pink jacket combined with the cream skirt is gorgeous and the combat boots in cream move the outfit to a whole new level! Brilliant! I like the second outfit too! Bootcuts are great on you and work nicely with the cream shacket. Very nicely done! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-x2-shackets-and-bootcut-jeans#post-2229703 Tue, 05 Oct 2021 21:29:40 +0000 Angie 2229703@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>*waving at my cream stompy boots and pink striped tee twin"</p> <p>LOVE yesterday's KILLER soft and utility pretty look, <b>Tanya</b>. I'll take the whole look please :)</p> <p>Love the "now" higher rise bootcuts too. Fun slit hems! By all means hem an inch shorter for lower heels. They will look <i>as</i> smashing!&nbsp;</p> <p>Nice drape on the cropped soft BR hsacket too. PRETTY in cream.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-x2-shackets-and-bootcut-jeans#post-2229692 Tue, 05 Oct 2021 21:01:00 +0000 Sal 2229692@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like these "shackets" Tanya - they are a great extra layer and give that fashion forward look.</p> <p>I love the bootcuts too - what a fun design on the side. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-x2-shackets-and-bootcut-jeans#post-2229681 Tue, 05 Oct 2021 20:23:42 +0000 Tanya 2229681@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here are two casual outfits, worn yesterday and today for walks/store runs, based on two shackets I have, which are slightly different from typical ones featured in the yesterday's blog post.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>Yesterday's outfit was built around pink G-Star Raw utility shacket I got earlier in the summer, that the manufacturer calls "overshirt".&nbsp; I am not sure if it technically qualifies as a shacket as it looks more like a utility jacket, but in terms of thickness it is definitely as Angie described on the blog: much thinner than a utility jacket, unlined, but a bit thicker than a shirt.&nbsp; &nbsp;I wore it loose (as in photos #2 and #4), but it has a drawstring that can be adjusted for a more fitted look (like in #3). The rest of the outfit is another version of the skirt &amp; stompy boots look, this one with an old cream denim skirt, and debut of two NAS items, blush striped tee and cream stompy boots.</p> <p>Today's outfit is based on a knit BR shacket I got two weeks ago.&nbsp; I chose knit as it is less bulky and drapes better than standard boxy shackets.&nbsp; I wore it with old sleeveless knit turtleneck, old-ish Gap bootcut jeans and 3" wedge shoes the jeans required.&nbsp; The jeans are 3-4 years old (not from 10-12 years ago), which you can likely tell by the high rise.&nbsp; I love the side detail/inset, which is the main reason I got them.&nbsp; &nbsp;I don't wear them often as at this, original length, they need 3" heels, and these are the only comfy shoes of that height I own.&nbsp; I generally do not wear that height of heels anymore, I have a preference for 2" heels these days.&nbsp; They would get much more wear if I shortened them 1-1.5", but I have been hesitant to do so as I did not want to risk messing up the fun side-seam design. </p>
