A couple of years ago I bought this black leather bomber on sale. I have never worn it much because I feel it is a little too long for me. After reading Angie's suggestions for wearing such jackets with dresses, I decided to give it a try. Here's the result:

#1: The bomber and my LBD. I kept it very simple and added black pumps only. Quite dressy, could work for a night out or a party.
#2: A more dressy sheath with lace skirt. I thought this could work for a dressy event, too.
#3: My zigzag striped sheath, white linen scarf and oxfords. More casual, probably best for weekend wear. With tights, I could use this at work, too. I'm not too sure about the scarf here.
#4: A cobalt sundress with boots and scarf. This is great for work and a night out in early spring.
#5: With the red fit and flare-dress and brown booties. With tights, this is good for early spring (work).
#6/7: 6)The beige pencil that was put down in the Spring capsule (Redbook), a patterned blouse and black pumps. 7) Pink/red flowered skirt, cream v-neck, nude loafers. I like the outfit a lot, but is the black bomber too harsh for the delicate colors on the rest?

How did I do? Is my original hunch right - the bomber is a little off for my shape? Comments and suggestions are very welcome as always. Thanks for looking!
