So, ladies and fashionably inclined men of DU, what do you wear with THIS?

[TheFriendlyAnarchist]

It's a jacket my Mom had from the sixties. Sexy isn't it? My question is what do you where with it (shirt, pants, and shoes wise?)

On EDIT: Just to make sure all of you know, I'm a guy :) I'm hearing talk of flowers and hoop earings, which I'm just not feelin ;)
On second EDIT: Here's a pic of me if it helps

1. Cotton tee, well-worn jeans, and earth shoes.

That's what I'd go for anyway.

[TheFriendlyAnarchist]

11. Just white cotton?

[GoddessOfGuinness]

17. I'd go with natural, rather than the bleached look...

It'll complement the design on your jacket better. A simple design on the front would be fine.

2. I'm almost tempted to say

that painter pants or corduroys for the bottom instead of jeans to really accentuate the denim in the shirt. I think denim on the bottom is too much and the shirt will get lost in the sea of blue, but that's just me. I love it, btw.

That's not you in the pic, is it? I thought you were blonde...

[TheFriendlyAnarchist]

7. My hair is brownish blonde. I've been putting mousse or gel in

and it really darkens it

[idgiehkt]

19. wow. it does

you look totally brunette in those photos. It works well on you, though.

3. Orange/yellow long flowing layered skirt from India and sandels.

Tuck in shirt and wear another colorful cloth belt. Don't forget the beads and flowers in your hair, and hoop earrings.

[TheFriendlyAnarchist]

8. As a guy, I'm not sure I'm going for flowers and hoop earings

:P

[Sequoia]

32. I'm sure you'd be cute as ever!

Nix that idea then.

[BelleCarolinaPeridot]

4. I would make it a cropped jacket to match a yellow sundress.

[TheFriendlyAnarchist]

9. I don't know if I'd look good in a sundress

[BelleCarolinaPeridot]

13. You look like a guy I know ...

and he used to post here.

Anyways , I thought you meant for anyone. I think you could possibly add some satin lining into and make it sort of a like a suit jacket. It needs to be fitted just right and cut just like a jacket.

[Skittles]

29. I think you'd look real purty in a sundress

yes INDEED :thumbsup:

[blondeatlast]

12. Cropped jacket! Nice idea with my ensem downthread. Perhaps not for TFA, though. nt

[Rabrrrrrr]

5. That macrame scarf thing you made down at the organic food co-op

the day you all got super sonically high off the owner's cousin's Missouri Ditch Weed that she brought and you sat around doing arts and crafts and it was seven hours before you realized that that really super cool and awesome deep-throbbing tibetan prayer bell that you kept hearing was actually irate customers hitting the little bell by the cash register trying to buy some unbleached oat hulls and almond milk.

[GoddessOfGuinness]

15. Don't forget the grass skirt.

[blondeatlast]

6. Your mileage will no doubt differ---I'm kind of a fashionista (female).

Dark minskirt, patterned tights and a tank or shell in a matching to the skirt color, boots with a mid-heel, and some great tinted shades.

If I'm around, don't let it out of your sight. You've been warned...

[Nicole]

10. Jeans, t-shirt & boots.

I would go for dark jeans to match the elbow patches. Then a light colored t-shirt to match the butterfly back, yellow or pale orange maybe.

[trof]

14. LEATHER, man.

This calls for some SERIOUS leather.
And a tat.
Somewhere.
;-)

[BarenakedLady]

16. Come on over I'll dress you.

*ahem* I mean undress you

DAMN IT!

Being good....O8)

No really, I like the jeans look, cotton t-shirt, sneakers.

[leftofthedial]

18. nekkid

the power of understatement

[lizziegrace]

20. Hey!!

I had a shirt like that. I thought your mom was younger than me. ;)

You have terrific taste. Jeans, boots and a t-shirt would work well.

:hi:

[TheFriendlyAnarchist]

21. Heh, she said it was one of her boyfriends' back from the 70's

that kind of thing is making a comeback in HS though. Most of the people were impressed with my style *flips up collar*

[lizziegrace]

22. You're one of a kind

and that's the biggest compliment I can give you.

:)

[Oeditpus Rex]

23. What?

No headband? :shrug:

[Rabrrrrrr]

25. Yes! Without headband, full 'Loverboy' effect is totally lost!

TOTALLY lost!!

[Left Is Write]

24. Jeans, white t-shirt, boots.

[otherlander]

26. It's light denim with a design, so maybe one basic color for the rest of the outfit.

I'm thinking black courderoy pants + tee-shirt, and hiking boots. Then you have the dark outfit with the light jacket- which matches the eyes really well.

[pitohui]

27. what you have on looks good to me EOM

.

[mike_c]

28. son, why are you wearing your mother's clothes...?

:rofl:

[Monk06]

30. Um ............. Snap !!!!!!!!! ...............

On the other hand as one guy asked me durin'
da Summer o'Love, "Why are you lettin' those
girls paint your toenails with nail polish?"

My answer, "How come I'm sittin' with three
pretty girls and you're not?"

[TheFriendlyAnarchist]

31. .

:rofl: :P see post 21

[blogslut]

33. cool shirt

stick with the jeans and tee and find a pair of dingo boots.

[ashling]

34. Are you implying that ALL ladies and just some men

are "fashionably inclined," or are you wanting to hear from some of the ladies who are not "fashionnably inclined" and if so, why don't you want to hear from the men who are not "fashionably inclined?" :shrug:

I probably don't fall within the group of DUers you were hoping would respond to your post ... as a matter of fact, I think I was specifically excluded, as I am neither a lady, nor "fashionably inclined," but here is my answer:

You should wear it with whatever you want.
