Ask Angie: boho jacket

greenglove

Hi Angie,
I am sorry if this a repeat for those who commented but I am still undecided on this one, I am tending toward keeping it. It is intentionally styled to not be fitted, It has a funky look which I like and would be worn casually. It is a small which is the smallest it came in. I got mixed reviews on former thread (most liked but thought it too big.) some thought ot was fine as is. I think that it is the cut of the jacket, it does not feel too big. I have shown multiple views. What do you think? Thanks Angie!!

I meant to get to this thread, Jean. There are just not enough hours in the day. I need a 30 hour day.

I do not prefer the way it fits on the shoulder. I absolutely love the style and the fact that it’s voluminous and arty is appealing. It’s a nice change for you, but from the photo, the shoulder line bothers me. Could be different in the flesh, though, so I leave the discretion to you.

Hi Jean, I didn't get to post on your other thread either, I don't think. (I have a horrible memory and no time!) Anyway, I like the style, but do think it's too big, and I"m not crazy about the color.

Maybe it could be a coat that you wear another jacket underneath it...? I love the color, GG, especially with the scarf you've paired it with.

Hi Jean, I didn't get a chance to comment on the previous thread.

I very much like this type of jacket for you and you look great in that colour. Jackets like this have a loose fit, but I do agree with Angie that there's something about the shoulder line. Maybe you could keep it for when you're wearing extra layers, e.g. a denim jacket underneath?

I'm also coming back to comment. When I looked at your picture of the jacket from the front it didn't look like it fit very well, but you are kind of hunched to take the picture so it's hard to tell. When I saw the picture from the side I liked it better. Like Angie says, it's hard to see the shoulder line and that's the most important area to fit.
