WIW: Jumping Right In

Jenn

In for a penny, in for a pound. I know I just started posting, but if I don't jump right in with a WIW, I might never do it.

Wearing: LOFT top, Boden denim skirt, Target flats.

I like this top quite a bit with jacket over it, as in #2, but I was hoping I might be able to wear it alone, with a high of 93° here in Colorado today. I'm not sold. Maybe I should save this one for cooler days?

Way to jump right in, and welcome! Great first WIW - do I ever love the colour of your jacket on you! But at that temp, doubt I'd wear it either - phew!

That jacket adds a great punch. Just what your outfit needs.

Hi Jenn. This is a good, easy outfit for such a hot day- and I could not imagine wearing a leather jacket in 93F heat, but perhaps your workplace is air-conditioned? Anyways - good colours on you.

We tend to have chilly mornings here (it's in the 60s right now). That jacket definitely won't make it through the day!

I think it works without the jacket. The jacket works well with the outfit, but not with 93°!

Beautiful either way. Any floral sleeveless top with a denim (or black chambray) skirt and flats is certainly perfect for a hot summer day, IMO. Sorry no mirror for photo attached.

I love WIWs. I look forward to yours.

I think number 1 works great. In fact, I like it best.

welcome to the world of WIWs! You won't look back, the feedback you'll get will suck you right into posting more and more

This is a great casual look, something I would wear myself. Flats, denim skirt, print top - nice outfit! I undertsand the need for layers as it's chilly in the AM here too. Sometimes it can be tricky to find shirts and jackets that layer well together so congrats on finding a good mix.

welcome to YLF and WIW!

This is a great outfit on you! And with the leather jacket it's absolutely perfect for Fall - I can see this ensemble with tights and booties! Love your hair too.

Welcome to the wonderful world of WIWs. Warning: it's an addiction.

You look great! I love that top on you -- pretty colours and a nice shape. Great casual look.

I love both versions. I also love Jeweled's idea of #2 with tights and booties in the Fall. Congrats on your first WIW. They are quite the learning experience!

Welcome Jenn, and good job jumping right in.

I echo, Suz. You look great. Fun blouse with denim skirt and flats. Nice colours against your skin tone too.

Nice job jumping right in! That's a great little top, looks good both ways although like you I do like it better with the jacket. Not sure if it's too warm but a lightweight or semi-sheer navy tank underneath would give the top a little more "visual weight" when worn alone since it's a little sheer.

I think Aida makes a great suggestion about layering the tank. Way to go for jumping in with the wiw...it's a lovely look and now I am dreaming about Colorado summers (only lived there a few years, but June was always my favorite month)!

Aida and Meredith - Good call on the navy tank. That will definitely help, especially in the fall when the extra layer isn't as stifling.

And thanks, Angie!

So nice to see you, Jen! Love your sense of color! The blues are soft next to your face, and the bordeaux jacket adds a lovely richness. No need to wear the topper on a hot day! I love sheer woven (not knit) tops for hot days -- this one won't show sweat or wilt and cling in the heat!

Welcome to WIW on YLF!

And you certainly look great! The denim skirt and floral top make quite a nice casual outfit by themselves. Love the cut of your skirt btw

That leather jacket is a whole different ball game. That color makes it rather extraordinary! I truly love it...you look fab!

Hello Jen. The jacket looks perfect with your outfit, but it also looks great without.

Welcome to the forum. Posting WIWs is very addictive.
