Green Jacket is here! - YouLookFab Forum

LOVE! (Bought with a giftcard). Hubs Greg loves it too!

Perfect fit. TTS if you like a narrower fit. Made of a comfy and soft waxed fabric. Unique. Desigual, (from Spain), is becoming a go-to brand.

Darker than expected, yet slightly sour so win-win for sour-colour loving me. AND, a good match with my new darker natural hair

Wearing it right away. NOW. Go Team Wear!

Wearing it with golden oldies:

6 year old white jeans. (I've worn white and off-white jeans most days over the last 6 weeks. Good thing I have multiple pairs!)

9 year old Boden navy polka dot shirt. Buttoned to the top. Collar popped. My thing!

6 year old light blue Furla

2 year old light blue oxfords and 3 year light blue specs

Pics are as good as it gets in this temporary unit. More bad pics. Oh well!

Highly recommend the jacket. I predict it will become a workhorse like the red one.

Hair is doing what it wants to do. Feels current to have hair fall in a relaxed and random way. I'm embracing it, and enjoying it!

Thanks for looking. xo

Love the jacket and outfit. Shoes look comfy for walking too. Moto jacket for the win. I’m a big fan of moto jackets.

delurked, thanks! Motos are a versatile iconic classic

Mirjana

Beautiful Desigual moto jacket, great color and it fits you fantastic. Perfect combination with light blue and white. You look stunning. I like Desigual and have some items which I wear with pleasure. So enjoy wearing sweet Angie.

Mirjana, you always make me smile with your kind words! Thank you

Desigual rocks! High five.

Janet

Oh I love that green!

*repeating to myself I do not need another jacket I do not need another jacket*

Great outfit all around!

Kyle

Congratulations on finding another piece you love, Angie. I hope it proves to be just what you need for summer (and beyond) in Seattle. Getting the right green is especially tricky when shopping online, I think. I’m always reluctant to pull the trigger because I don’t enjoy returns.

RobinF

Ooh love it! Such a pretty color and looks great with your whites and light blues. Love the hair too! Do you put product in it?

The Cat

Love seeing moto jackets in non-neutrals. The combo of green, blue and white is wonderfully cool and summer-ish.

Lovely outfit your green jacket is fabulous. Your hair gets nicer every time you post it’s growing very fast.

Cardiff girl

Perfect!The colour makes your eyes pop.

Suz

Love this, Angie! The green is fantastic on you and I especially love that you are wearing it with golden oldies, showing how to update our beloved favourites and long-term winners with one new fab statement piece.

Special love for those Cole Haan oxfords. I adore mine!

Dee

Wowza, that green is so terrific, looks fab with the polka dots. What a wonderful addition to enjoy in your wardrobe.

Tanya

Gorgeous on you, and great outfit all around.

Such lovely people you are - thanks, everyone!

Janet, I thought of you, your love for green, AND motos when I saw this jacket!

Kyle, it's a great cover-up for arctic a/c indoors too! It's risky buying items online, isn't it? Good thing the darker version of this jacket works too!

RobinF, you're so nice! There is dry shampoo in my hair today. When it's washed, I put in a hydrant or mousse when it's wet. Air dry if I'm wearing it wavy.

The Cat, I think this is close to a green - and colour combo - that you wear! Fun

Pirouette, appreciate the hair compliment! It grows slowly to me, but good that you think it grows fast

Cardiffgirl, hubs Greg thought the same!

Suz, our golden oldies deserve some love, right? YES, to a new statement piece changing the landscape of our wardrobe. HIGH FIVE to loving our Cole Haan oxfords! Soooooo comfy and well made.

Dee, you are lovely and super supportive. Appreciate it!

Yay, Tanya! Thank you

Angie, before I read your comment to me, I had planned my outfit for tomorrow: a combo of green, blue and grey. Emerald green pullover, forest green bracelet, soft blue crochet wool shawl, dark grey heart-shaped stone necklace, and light grey jeans and ballet flats.

By the way, I have often wondered what you mean by "sour" colours. I am used to calling colours cool, warm, clear, muted, light, dark, and medium. But what are sour colours? Can cool as well as warm colours be sour? Some of the colours you have called sour (i.e. the green you are showing here, and lemon, hot pink and turquoise) seem cool, while others (like tomato and lime green) seem warm. What makes a colour sour?

Beautiful color—tempted! And you match the vase in the room behind you!

Off to check out the brand…

The Cat, your outfit sounds lovely!

To answer your question:

Sour colours are crisp and citrussy, usually. Also, they are colours with YELLOW in them. That WARMS them up. The reds, pinks, turquoises, and greens I wear are generally not cool. They are warmer, because of their yellow component. The blues and whites I wear are cool though - (no yellow) - so they are exceptions.

Take warm yellow for example:

Mustard and Citron are yellows. I don't wear mustard well. I wear citron well because it's sour and lemon-y. Citrussy!

With respect to this green jacket - it's cooler than the greens I usually wear. You are right! Yet it's JUST sour enough because it has a little yellow in it.

HOPE that makes sense!

Carla, nice!

Aquamarine, tonal with the vase for sure! Try the jacket.

Roberta

High contrast and perfectly crisp! It looks fantastic on you. I love Desigual and still mourn the fact there are no stores in the US anymore.

Angie, thank you for your explanation.

MsMary

SO FAB!!

JAileen

I love the jacket with polka dots - very fun!

ChristelJ

I knew this jacket would be amazing on you! Delicious color and perfect fit. What a great outfit all around. That polka dot shirt is a treasure. And your hair has such lovely waves!

Jaime

Love that color green on you! You call it relaxed and random but I say your hair has never looked better! Well I do sit in camp relaxed and random hair after all .

Bijou

Wow - this is a gorgeous colour on you and a beautiful jacket. I have always been interested in Desigual clothing but previously found their signature very bright colours on a black background overwhelming. Your hair looks salon perfect.

Sal

Love this outfit on you!

Great jacket on you - and I love your hair in this relaxed style. It looks so healthy and natural.

good job

Sisi

Super nice jacket and outfit! I like the combination with light blue accessories. The jacket is actually different from the usual Desigual aesthetics, as described by Bijou. If my hair behaved like yours when I let it do wat it wants I would be very happy.
