Remix ... No Black or Red!! - YouLookFab Forum

Hi Girls,

You kindly gave me the thumbs up on #3 which I am wearing today, however the weather is quite cool and it's another busy day with my women's bible study group and mum duties... SO I

... Swapped heels for flats and added animal print jacket.

#1 Jacket without scarf.

#2 with polka dot scarf. Is it too much or does this constitute ok pattern mixing?

#3 what I'm wearing underneath.

I have had this jacket for a few years and i really like it as i feel it has a bit of a 60's vibe, but it just doesn't get worn enough. I think it's good with the cobalt skinnies but WDYT.

Should I try and get this jacket back into regular rotation or is it time to move it on?

As always I really value your opinions.

Have a lovely day

xxx Deborah

I love! The jacket still looks very stylish to me, and the silhouette works well with the cobalt skinnies. I love the scarf and your blouse/sweater/necklace too! Pattern mixing is perfect (I'm finding I now crave it)! Good idea to wear the flats; better for running around and a little warmer on the feet, too! You look just Fab for Fall!

I love the jacket and the greys with the cobalt!

Keep it! Looks updated with the skinnies/color on bottom and fun pattern. You could do stripes with it also.

You look so fab, Deborah and I vote to keep the jacket. It looks great with the cobalt color and I think what you're wearing underneath could not be improved in any way; it's perfect. (I didn't see the thread on #3 from yesterday). Plus, I love your necklace. That's beautiful. Even adding an aqua or turquoise scarf may be fun and a pop of color with the cobalt to play with the colors of your necklace.

I like the jacket and it looks to be surprisingly versatile. The polkadots look lovely with the pattern in the coat! Not too much at all. And the pants are such a lovely color with the playful necklace. Very lovely outfits.

Deborah -- I love the coat over this killer outfit. This is a perfect example of why I don't believe in tossing things you haven't worn for a year -- sometimes it takes a little hit of inspiration to make a good garment shine. And yes -- this is pattern mixing of the best sort -- I think it works because the color is similar and their is enough difference between the scale of the prints. Wear again!

Jem

I love the jacket! Definitely KEEP!! It goes really well with the cobalt skinnies, for sure!

Jjsloane

Keep the jacket. Love it in #1.

STUNNING.

Okay. No more black for you.

Love love love!

Yum. I love the greys with the cobalt, and the pattern mixing is fab! Keep the coat for sure.

Carole

Love it all ways. Great pattern mixing, too BTW. You are one stylish lady!

#2 might be my favorite shot, the pattern mixing is great and the coat looks wonderful with the cobalt pants.

Deborah, that is just beautifully remixed! You'll give elevator music a good name yet

Seriously, loving the jacket with that scarf --- and it is totally fabulous with the cobalt. I now want to see it with your red (or was it coral?) pants as well I think! Do bring it into play more often, by all means!

Killer-ness!!!

Pattern mixing is perfect. I would keep the jacket. It works really nicely with colored denim.

You look beautiful in every photo...so much better than black with your delicate coloring.

LOVE!

Claire, I am experiencing the same thing, of I don't have just a bit of pattern mixing going on I feel a bit bland.

Una, it's a new color combination for me but I felt comfortable in it.

Christieanne, I love stripes for layering and will definitely try this under that jacket.

Vicki, thank you. I have summer necklaces and winter necklaces and this one hasn't come out to play much this summer. I forget how pretty the colors are.

Meredith1953, thank you. I am having fun trying out different pattern mixing options.

Beth Ann, I agree. I tend to keep certain pieces even if they are not being worn much as the perfect piece may just come along to revitalize it.

Jem and Jj, thanks it's staying in my closet.

Angie, thank you. But I am not sure I can live without black, but I will keel incorporating color;)

Shannon &Sarah, thank you:)

Carole, such a lovely compliment from such a stylish lady.

sarahA yay for pattern mixing.

ManidipaM I was also thinking about my red skinnies... Will try them.

Taylor, thank you.

Denise I am loving the colored jeans. It has not been picked up in a big way here.

Joy that is so very kind of you thank you. Perhaps my next fashion goal will be incorporating lighter colors into my closet.

Diane, I bought them at a teen shop called Valley Girl. They are not premium denim but the quality is ok.

Thanks Scarlet

I want to steal the jacket in # 1!! I love the blue skinnies. Wow!!

Ioana

I really like pic 3

I thing that the scarf is a bit busy for this look, but I do think that everything else looks very nice on you
