i'm hiding it :devil: if i stand in a slightly different way you can really tell that i'm something like 35-26-nearly 40


i'm really happy with, can't believe they marked it down so much i've been getting frustrated it's too cold to wear leather jackets where i live right now but this is helping!

RO lovers,

I need some help styling this zip top / jacket (that I love!)

Im not a skirt person in general but I've worn it with a jersey skirt but it is a little on the long side and i don't think it looks good proportion-wise on me. I tried skinny fit pants but the outfit ends up looking too tight all throughout so it doesn't look that great either.

Any suggestions and tips welcome!

im a newb on the RO thread, but how about wearing it open like a jacket, with skinny pants and a t underneath or tank? The gathers may be distracting if worn alone......
just an idea?

Also wondering if anyone knows a reputable RO seller on ebay, there are a few shearling jackets on there now, and look authentic but not sure. Seems as though all of the shearling jackets are sold out on websites.

I also like the idea that cookie suggested, wear it open. One must almost have a perfect shape in order to pull of wearing the jacket zipped up.
The details won't be lost at all, and that's the feature you like the most, yes?

Which jackets are you referring to?
On the bay - Bladerunner from Italy is legit.
Check out The Outnet in a bit since there were several shearlings that they had on sale. I assume they will go here IF they were not sold both here in the US and Internationally. Good luck.....

Thanks cookie and dcblam.. I shouldnt have even said it was a jacket. It's just a top, definitely not meant to be worn open bc the zippers end up at my sides and it ends up being really wide open.

I couldn't imagine anything but a skirt with this top. I think this skirt in a slightly different color would look good with it: http://www.antonioli.eu/en/products/22735-rick-owens-skirt?gen=women#.UQyApmcfjww

It'd give your hips more of a shape. It's a little long but since you did mention proportion, a nice heel could elongate your legs. What I would wear with the top and skirt I mentioned is a knee high calf leather heel with a slight open toe. JMI

OR even a nice above the knee trouser very much like this, that would make your leg seem longer: http://www.antonioli.eu/en/products/22736-rick-owens-trousers?gen=women#.UQyB5Wcfjww

And depending on where the top falls you can wear a belt to accentuate your body.

Thanks! The skirt I've been wearing it with is very similar in style (diff color) to the one you posted! I think I will just keep wearing that combo..

The pants are very cute..might have to get those

No problem! Just play around with shoes you already have in your closet. A pair of knee highs could be fun and conservatively sexy. Ideally more of a night look, but you can even change the direction of your look by even adding a ankle trouser to make it more daytime. Following a sandal or even a wedge seemingly appropriate for spring. Good luck

How about a wide, flowy, A-line skirt that comes down the the mid-calf area. Paired with RO ankle wedges and a faux fur vest? The vest ends at around the hips. That would be very nice! All in black or charcoal.

Wide legged trousers with pointy-toed wedge ankle boots and a pendant?

Skinny leggings or leather leggings with knee high boots or thigh high boots. Paired with a flowy RO inspired faux fur vest that goes down to mid-thigh. Add a silver pendant. If the faux fur vest is mid-thigh then stick with knee high boots.

All in charcoal, greys or black to make a long line.

I'm boring but I'd just wear this top with skinny jeans and boots or flats depending on the weather. For me I think when a top is long like that and goes over your bum it only really suits skinny jeans because of the proportions. I have one of the RO long jersey skirts and I feel like it looks funny with a top that long so it limits what I can wear with it because most of my tops that go with it are too long for it. But then wearing a tight top and tight jeans isn't something everyone is comfortable with so it's tricky.

I really like that top by the way, I almost got it myself. Good luck!

I tried to buy that top and there was much too much fabric bunching around my waist -- I sent it back. I had hoped it could be worn open but you're right, would just flop at the sides. I think you need a long torso to pull off that top! Would love to see modeling pics once you work it out!

Thank you for your outfit ideas! All of them sound ver stylish and luxe! The tops a bit tricky to wear with certain bottoms bc it covers the bum and it's tight but 1 and 3 I will try!

Thanks! Yup I've been sticking to skinnies and jersey skirt. After trying on some diff options, I think it actually looks kinda good (although a bit tight all throughout ) with skinnies ..I just wonder if other people are thinking why I'm wearing such a tight outfit.. Haha.
