It must be on sale because it rang up $29.70 before taxes but the tag said $49. Anyway the XS fits me well except that I'll need to roll or scrunch the sleeves, but I'd do that anyway. I also have 39" shoulders and long arms. My bra size is 30D. The jacket is soft and more stretchy than any other jean jacket I own.<br /> In your thread with Shannon's blue dress, is the red denim jacket you are wearing a Jolt from Nordstroms? If so I also have that red jacket in size Small for comparison.<br /> I forgot about Express having a white jacket so haven't tried it. Now I'm curious and may try to get to Express before taking off the tags on the AE version. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-ae-white-denim-jacket#post-631057 Tue, 29 May 2012 00:08:44 +0000 Suz 631057@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sarah, that would be great! Thank you! I am pretty convinced I'm going to pull the trigger on this, but it's pricey here in Canada, so I need to think hard about fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-ae-white-denim-jacket#post-631049 Mon, 28 May 2012 23:55:04 +0000 sarah 631049@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, do you want me to measure the shoulders on my S? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-ae-white-denim-jacket#post-630752 Mon, 28 May 2012 15:44:30 +0000 Suz 630752@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Tanya and Sarah. My shoulders are actually surprisingly wide for my size, Sarah - 38.5 inches round, sometimes 39. But my bust is super small and while the shoulders are wide they are still delicate - I'm not a true IT. So probably XS is right. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-ae-white-denim-jacket#post-630751 Mon, 28 May 2012 15:36:23 +0000 sarah 630751@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, I have the Express in S - the XS looked fabulous, but was too tight across the back of my shoulders, sadly. I think you are probably narrower than I am, and it would fit you well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-ae-white-denim-jacket#post-630737 Mon, 28 May 2012 15:14:06 +0000 Tanya 630737@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, I have both jackets in XS and they fit very similarly, other than sleeves. AE one has long and narrow sleeves that are a bit of pain to roll. Express one had shorter and looser sleeves that look good rolled and stay that way. If you look through my recent WIW about whole week in jeans you can see them both in action. The white one is Expess and light blue one is AE. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-ae-white-denim-jacket#post-630730 Mon, 28 May 2012 14:59:46 +0000 Suz 630730@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Awesome, Jem - thank you!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-ae-white-denim-jacket#post-630723 Mon, 28 May 2012 14:46:14 +0000 Jem 630723@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Suz, if you decide on the Express jacket, call the Calgary store: (403) 286-0847. If they have what you want, I can mail it to you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-ae-white-denim-jacket#post-630709 Mon, 28 May 2012 14:18:10 +0000 Suz 630709@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Shannon, please hold on ordering the AE - I've just asked Angie about the Express sizing. it might work better as they have small and extra small available. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-ae-white-denim-jacket#post-630702 Mon, 28 May 2012 14:12:48 +0000 Transcona Shannon 630702@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Express does deliver to Canada Suz and I think they have a sale on now. Here's the link to their website <a href="http://www.express.com/home.jsp?u=ca&#038;creative=12909780436&#038;adpos=1t1&#038;CID=2686&#038;gclid=CIKL5I-Wo7ACFWQDQAodhW1SXg" rel="nofollow">http://www.express.com/home.js.....QAodhW1SXg</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-ae-white-denim-jacket#post-630699 Mon, 28 May 2012 14:11:00 +0000 Suz 630699@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Angie. I don't think I can get the Express jacket here, alas. Unless somebody can tell me differently. Shannon, do you happen to know? </p> <p>The Bay carries SOME of the Express line, but not all, and at my local store they most certainly don't have the jacket. Their website is also one of the worst on the planet, so it is very hard to find out if it's available online, but I'll check. They really only carry a few things from Express and ordering from the US would make it really cost-prohibitive. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-ae-white-denim-jacket#post-630696 Mon, 28 May 2012 14:08:35 +0000 Angie 630696@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>An XXS at AE is too small for you, Suz. How about Express? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-ae-white-denim-jacket#post-630694 Mon, 28 May 2012 14:06:46 +0000 Suz 630694@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, Shannon - that's fine. Frustrating, but fine, LOL!!! I really do want the darn white denim jacket!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-ae-white-denim-jacket#post-630677 Mon, 28 May 2012 13:49:01 +0000 goldenpig 630677@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was between S and M on their size charts but went with S and it was the right fit. I'm 32DD. It sounds like XS will be the best size for you. So sweet of Shannon to pick one up for you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-ae-white-denim-jacket#post-630673 Mon, 28 May 2012 13:36:51 +0000 Transcona Shannon 630673@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll call the store as soon as they open at 10:00 our time - if they have an XS, will pick it up for you. Just FYI it is not on sale in store, only online so as long as you're ok paying full price? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-ae-white-denim-jacket#post-630650 Mon, 28 May 2012 13:10:29 +0000 sarah 630650@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, the S fit me, which probably means that the XS would be best for you. Beware of the very long sleeves. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-ae-white-denim-jacket#post-630643 Mon, 28 May 2012 13:08:03 +0000 Suz 630643@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, Shannon, would you please check? I would gladly pay you the postage, of course!<br /> So, I think from what everybody is saying XS would work best. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-ae-white-denim-jacket#post-630633 Mon, 28 May 2012 12:54:57 +0000 Transcona Shannon 630633@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can call the store that's closest to my work and if they have an XS, pick you up one at lunch time. Let me know if you want me to check Suz. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-ae-white-denim-jacket#post-630632 Mon, 28 May 2012 12:53:44 +0000 Diana 630632@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I took my normal size (M) in this jacket, and it fit me perfectly throughout except it's slghtly tight at the very bottom when buttoned because I am so short waisted that it actually hits me at a wider spot below my natural waist. For a normal waisted person this would not be a problem. I don't care though as I don't plan to ever wear it all buttoned up. FWIW, my bust size is 36.5" (34C) which is technically right at the border between M and L, but I think fit through the shoulders is much more important on a jacket and can usually only be determined by trying it on. </p> <p>The sleeves are very long - they are long even on me and I have gorilla arms. I can turn up the cuff once - like when I did the faux french cuff - and it was still full length. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-ae-white-denim-jacket#post-630621 Mon, 28 May 2012 12:32:21 +0000 Suz 630621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm pretty sure I should be XS. They don't have xs or small online, just XXS. </p> <p>Shannon, that is SO sweet of you. Do they have XS in the Winnipeg area? The closest one that has in store here is in Toronto, and I'm not going there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-ae-white-denim-jacket#post-630617 Mon, 28 May 2012 12:28:43 +0000 Makrame 630617@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would guess your size is XS. I would need a small, and I am 6-8 in tops, normally (34D bust). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-ae-white-denim-jacket#post-630600 Mon, 28 May 2012 11:51:16 +0000 Transcona Shannon 630600@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How big was the medium Suz? Do you think the small would work, or the extra small? I can try and grab you one from here if you want. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-ae-white-denim-jacket#post-630598 Mon, 28 May 2012 11:38:20 +0000 Anonymous 630598@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>xxs is about a girl's size 14-16. I'm thinking is probably too small.<br /> It's three sizes down from the M you tried on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-and-others-ae-white-denim-jacket#post-630593 Mon, 28 May 2012 11:23:11 +0000 Suz 630593@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Can you advise about the sizing on this? My local store only has medium (way too big). I can order it online (which I just learned, thanks to Shannon) but the only size available is XXS. According to the size chart that would be too tight at the bust on me. I would probably never wear it closed anyway, but I thought I should check. </p> <p>My other worry is the arms. It has long arms and mine are short. Of course I'd roll them, mostly, but still....</p> <p>Angie - would I be XS in the Express as well, do you think? It IS available and apparently can be shipped in Canada. </p>
