I'm glad you all share my outlandish taste! I am picking this up from the tailor today - I had him add a little orange button to keep it closed. If it's not pressed, it goes to the dry cleaner, and then I will give it a whirl! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/you-wanna-talk-groovy-my-ugly-psychedelic-jacket#post-280805 Sat, 15 Jan 2011 16:27:26 +0000 Jonesy 280805@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I missed this when you first posted--just had to chime in to say that I love this jacket!

I agree with the tailoring comments. If this were mine, I'd totally rock it with some dark skinny jeans or something neutral on the bottom. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/you-wanna-talk-groovy-my-ugly-psychedelic-jacket#post-279314 Wed, 12 Jan 2011 22:22:20 +0000 Aida 279314@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's a fun jacket!

What a fun find! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/you-wanna-talk-groovy-my-ugly-psychedelic-jacket#post-279212 Wed, 12 Jan 2011 19:23:59 +0000 Sally 279212@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I dont think I could ever wear something like that but I love it on you. As someone said with jeggings it would look good. And it would look good fitted. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/you-wanna-talk-groovy-my-ugly-psychedelic-jacket#post-279206 Wed, 12 Jan 2011 19:19:12 +0000 ticksgirl 279206@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is one awesome, bottomless closet you have, Una!

Entertainment while I SYC... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/you-wanna-talk-groovy-my-ugly-psychedelic-jacket#post-278966 Wed, 12 Jan 2011 04:41:12 +0000 taylor 278966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, Angie and AG. I am thinking we want this look to be very deliberate and therefore it must be altered to perfection, ..... rather than I picked this thing up at goodwill and it fits like a robe...so sophistication in the fit will do that!!</p> <p>I would certainly spend the money to do that and wear it with you jeggings:)</p> <p>I would lose the belt and have the body brought in SNUG!<br /> Maybe change/add buttons </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/you-wanna-talk-groovy-my-ugly-psychedelic-jacket#post-278964 Wed, 12 Jan 2011 04:39:43 +0000 catgirl 278964@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If I don't cross the front panels, it is big - so are you saying to narrow the front lapel part and put something there to keep it closed like a dress? It was only $3 so I'm willing to spend a few dollars to make it work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/you-wanna-talk-groovy-my-ugly-psychedelic-jacket#post-278962 Wed, 12 Jan 2011 04:38:17 +0000 catgirl 278962@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Taylor, do you think I need to mess with it? I'm not sure it fits to perfection, but I also don't have anything to compare it to... it does have a mod vibe, doesn't it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/you-wanna-talk-groovy-my-ugly-psychedelic-jacket#post-278961 Wed, 12 Jan 2011 04:38:12 +0000 Angie 278961@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, my point exactly Taylor! I guess I'd like to neaten up the whole look, Una. Add Velcro closures, press studs or something. It would have to keep a pristine look about it to work in my book. It cant keep slipping like a bath robe does - at least I don't think so. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/you-wanna-talk-groovy-my-ugly-psychedelic-jacket#post-278959 Wed, 12 Jan 2011 04:32:51 +0000 taylor 278959@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Something this bold MUST fit to perfection:) I think this looks more 60's than 70's and isVERY FUN:) I am thinking Mike Meyers in Goldmember:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/you-wanna-talk-groovy-my-ugly-psychedelic-jacket#post-278954 Wed, 12 Jan 2011 04:25:17 +0000 catgirl 278954@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, it's not missing buttons, it is more like a bathrobe with no buttons and a matching tie. With that in mind would it still need to be tailored? It is fully lined and in great shape aside from needing to be cleaned. It feels like some kind of heavy cotton twill. The brand is some vintage CA tag.</p> <p>I am keeping it for sure, but how could I style it? Gap leans and boots?</p> <p>Mo, my closet is big AND dark, and I have some piles of stuff I'd been meaning to sort through - that's what I'm donig now. Kind of like thrifting all over again, for free! Pathetic, I know, to be this disorganized. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/you-wanna-talk-groovy-my-ugly-psychedelic-jacket#post-278947 Wed, 12 Jan 2011 04:11:38 +0000 MsMary 278947@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ZOMG.

I'd have it mended and tailored and wear it all the time. </p> <p>So a KILLER rating from me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/you-wanna-talk-groovy-my-ugly-psychedelic-jacket#post-278941 Wed, 12 Jan 2011 04:04:53 +0000 Mo 278941@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You must have a really big or really dark closet to not know that was hiding in there!! I like it in it's funky way. Strikes me more as mod. Keep. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/you-wanna-talk-groovy-my-ugly-psychedelic-jacket#post-278935 Wed, 12 Jan 2011 03:55:50 +0000 MsMaven 278935@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry, it hurts my eyes.
