Tweed?

Do you think of it more as old granny or in style?  I'm looking at a tweed suit that is a pencil skirt and jacket in a nude color.  I think they call it driftwood.  I just dont want to look like an old lady.

Re: Tweed?

  • I have a pair of, what I consider tweed, pants.  I bought them a few years ago and still like them.  I think they're fine but please note, I am by no means a fashion diva :oP

  • Like Mel I'm no fashion diva but I like little bits of tweed. I'm not sure about a whole tweed outfit. Like I saw the cutest pair of tweed flats that I would have bought if they had my size.

  • IMO, I love tweed... to an extent.  LOL  I think the colors and cut are crucial if you're attempting tweed and aren't looking for a granny-look.
  • To me wearing tweed is like wearing animal print.  One peice in your outfit can be super cute, but a whole outfit of it is a bit over the top. 

    I say get just the skirt.

    I say get just the jacket if you're going to go one piece.  It's more versatile, IMO, and how much will you wear the skirt versus jacket?

    Either or...but I would get more use out of a skirt than a suit jacket.

  • There is a store about 30 minutes away that I'm going to go to this weekend and hope they have it there so I can try it on.

  • GL.  I have a pair of tweed pants that I wear in in the winter.
