Good looking and particularly for a redhead. I love the jacket, cannot wear the color. The overall look is great.

Like everything except the shoes. The high heels !ook silly. Would look much better with a lower heel, maybe a 1.5" chunky heel or a wedge.

Usually I say anything goes with a nice pair of jeans -- but not in this case. To me, that jacket is too dressy for the jeans. The jacket is lovely (are those pearls on the cuffs and collar?), but would look much better with white or reddish slacks.

I really like this outfit, would like it more if the heel height of the shoes was a bit shorter.

Here's a different "ladylike" jacket-

@lolakimono I love it and I wear whites and pastels well. That looks like something I would buy.

I've never been fond of the cross-hatch woven material this jacket is made from. Also those strappy summery sandals worn w/this jacket are throwing me off a little bit.

It's a perfectly nice outfit, just not my taste. I do like the embellishments on the sleeves and collar of the jacket. The jeans fit her nice.

Since I'm a monochromatic dresser and don't wear jeans, I can't say I like anything about it.

IMO, jeans are very casual and wouldn't wear a dressy jacket and heels with them.

Wearing a light color short jacket over a longer light color t-shirt cuts her in half. The first thing noticed are the dark jeans.

I think she'd look better with a sporty blazer and casual shoes. Overall, IMO, I don't think this is a flattering look.

I'd like to see a more casual jacket and not as high of heel.

Totally agree.

I don't think this particular jacket can make the "jump" that looks well with jeans because of the trim. Of course, I would change the orange to red.

Orange is a hard color to wear.

I love the juxtaposition of a dressy blazer with jeans. In the first picture I'd change the shoes.

Love these looks @lolakimono ! These I would wear! Probably with wedge shoes, or my new Fly London that I am trying per @ECBG 's recommendation.

I am eyeing this Isaac jacket, just because it is easy wear. It does have those darn bell sleeves, but they are not long, and I think is a nice look, with jeans or black pants!

This is a similar feel brooke shields jacket that I did buy

@lolakimono Wow...looks like th group is split on this look. Usually majority is either for or against!

Personally - I think I like it. I like the pieces individually and together.

@NYCLatinaMe Hello Luv! If you love it, go for it! This outfit doesn't, however wow me.

The excess in the jacket's sleeves are wide which pull the eye to the hip because of their visual presence. The beige under piece is also flaired, which adds to the hip.

You never told me what season you are. If your season was newver done, what color are your eyes and skin tone, Luv?

@NYCLatinaMe Lovely! I wouldn't suggest that top snap. See the triangle over the stomach? No snap and there is a vertical line that is slimming and adds height.
