WIW- Militar jacket

Hi! It has been a while since my last post and I miss you ladies!
This is a Carolina Herrera Jacket I bought (in sale) last year but never wore because I was not sure how to styled! This weekend I went for this look and loved!
What do you think!
Any other styling suggestion?

Beautiful jacket! Pairing it with the striped top is a great choice too. The jacket has a military look and works very well with the crisp, clean, geometric stripe.

Love the jacket and absolutely adore your own pendant! The two play very nicely together. I can see this jacket with white denim as well.

You always look stylishly perfect, Rute! Love this on you. A 10! And I have missed you too.

Have you tried the jacket over a pencil skirt with animal print shoes?

I like it! Always fab, Rute! Can't wait to see it styled as Angie said!
BTW, how's the SYC doing-how long have you prepared yourself for doing it? Can't wait to see your new purchases as SYC ends:-) do you have a wish list?

You must wear that jacket! Angie is right about with a pencil skirt of course. It's fab and your styling is spot on.

Thanks Ladies!
Angie, Love your suggestion! I have everythin in my wardrobe: pencil skirt, leopard shoes.. can't wait to try!
lyn67,
I started by thinking in building a nice wardrobe with fab basics, not because I was already thinking about doing SYC, but because I lost weight about 2 years ago and I had to start a new wardrobe.
When I finished I tought that was a good oportunity to do a SYC!
I have a ish list in my facebook:

but its always changing because I go to stores and try and don't like! I see that I'm more picky now, I look for quality and impecable fit!

hi Rute,

I had to come to check on your wiw. Althought we had the kind of same idea your outfit is much more fabulous than mine.It looks so polished, I truly love it.You're giving me ideas for how to wear my jacket.
You really don't look like you are SYC because your outfits are current and you seem to always carry them in a new way. You are brilliant at it.

Please give this fantastic jacket lots of love and wear time! The way you're styling it is perfect. I'm also taking notes, because I have a military-style jacket of a similar color, and though they seem challenging, I guess they're versatile if you're able to think outside the box a bit. It looks amazing on you.

I think you nailed it. Keep everything else pretty simple. The necklace is the perfect fun touch!

Great jacket! I absolutely love it and the way you have styled it says chic and modern to me. I love your owl and is that a chanel bag I'm spotting? Great combinations

How about a denim skirt or some bright coloured skinnies?
