I was trying to convince myself maybe I would instead use this little jacket as a transitional item for the fall and not for really cold weather.So maybe over my dresses with short sleeves etc. Bu in terms of versatility , perhaps not. And the baby doll thing, not so good... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-can-a-cropped-jacket-work-for-long-torso#post-82327 Mon, 27 Jul 2009 21:47:42 +0000 Kristen 82327@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would say pass too, if only because it's an outdoor coat, which means the small of your back is sure to get cold! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-can-a-cropped-jacket-work-for-long-torso#post-82316 Mon, 27 Jul 2009 21:04:21 +0000 PalmFronds 82316@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And your hunch is right, I really do NOT like babydoll ANYTHING.

It’s just a hunch, but I don’t think you'll like the baby doll effect on a cropped jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/ask-angie-can-a-cropped-jacket-work-for-long-torso#post-82276 Mon, 27 Jul 2009 18:15:25 +0000 PalmFronds 82276@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Angie,<br /> I ran across this jacket and thought it was cute.</p> <p><a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/FAMOUS-CATALOG-Moda-NEW-Womens-Leather-Coat-Sz-Small_W0QQitemZ370233814290QQcmdZViewItemQQptZUS_CSA_WC_Outerwear?hash=item5633a7ad12&#038;_trksid=p3286.c0.m14#ht_3133wt_1167" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/FAMOUS-CAT.....133wt_1167</a></p> <p>It is only about 18 inches long however, while most of my jackets fall between 20-23 inches long to hit my high-mid hip. Is this too short a little jacket i.e will it look weird and like I am wearing clothes too small for me? Or should I give it a rip and try something new :-)</p> <p>p.s the Express leather jacket I just bought and posted is 20 inches long, just as a reference. </p>
