Ask Angie: Wondering if a jacket has too much shoulder pads

Hi,
I have a nice Christmasy red silk jacket that I was planning on wearing over a little black dress.

Is this the correct section of the blog to ask for advice/ If it is. I will take a photo and post it.

Hi Anne,
Thanks for your post about imgur. I thought about it, but I was too busy to create an account.

I ended up not wearing the big shoulders with my little black dress, but the jacket did look good with a pair of jeans and also with a pencil skirt.

It is a nice jacket but it looks a bit too big on you or maybe it is just a picture?

Yes, it is a little big. Anyway, I did wear it on Christmas Eve and got lots of compliments on it.

I'm glad I didn't wear it with my little black dress.

I agree with Sveta that the jacket looks to big on you in general and the sleeves look too long. It's a pretty color though.

Although the oversized look is very on trend, this jacket does not look fashionably oversized - just too large and long on the sleeves. I hope that makes sense.
