Even though I've posted on YLF for a long time, I seem to be struggling with proportions and layering. I need to post more of these wiw photos to get a little better at it. As always, thank you for suggestions/comments!
H&M Sweater
Home-sewn t-shirt
BR skirt
Clarks Artisan shoes
I just bought this H&M Military jacket today. I have always loved these very structured styles. Does it look ok on my figure? Do you like it styled in any of the ways I have pictured below? Suggestions are welcome too.
ETA: See pictures 5-8.
Thanks for the suggestions! Thanks to Suz for the suggestion to try lower contrast tops and bottoms. I think that helps. Also, I felt the pencil skirts + boxy jacket made me look awfully rectangular, so I tried fuller skirts. 5 will work. I can't wear the dress in 6 anymore b/c I've gained too much weight and can't breathe in it. I'll either have to lose weight or sew a larger dress :) Also, thanks for the suggestion to try a simpler top. I keep trying to wear that silk pussy bow blouse and never feel very good in it. It may be time to toss it.
