Cookie - The scoopneck top was a new addition to my fall wardrobe this season because it pairs so well with the jacket.
Angie - *sending a hug back!* I had a feeling you'd really like outfit #3. It's my favorite recent outfit too! The jacket pairs so well with the boots and is a lovely soft touch of ivory as we go into the colder weather.
Suz - I also really like the pairing of the ivory jacket and boots, they work so well together.
LJP - I also really enjoy sporting rust! It's a lovely color for fall and it also pairs so well with my beloved blues which are dominant in my wardrobe.
Carol - True, stripes are often nautical, especially in summer collections. It's nice to find a stripe that is a bit different and non nautical, indeed a rarity!
Jaime and Sal - I also really enjoy outfit #2, thanks for looking!
RobinF - It's nice to sport boots after so many months of sneakers and sandals.
Brooklyn - Oh yes, give your jacket a chop! The cut off detail is what made me pull the trigger on adding this jacket to my fall wardrobe, there's something about the cut off detail that gives outfits a fun twist on a classic denim jacket outfit.
Firecracker (Sharan) - I like both outfits for all the reasons you've stated. They are two of my favorite outfits thus far this fall season. Thanks for looking!
