I think it is very versatile. Actually if you need to fill a classic wardrobe hole first this may not be the one, but I have a few denim jackets and the cute trendy ones are fun and look great with a classic sheath or fun summer dress:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-jacket-3#post-366029 Mon, 13 Jun 2011 21:38:57 +0000 Suz 366029@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm also eagerly listening to replies here! I, too, am in search of the perfect cropped denim jacket. Most have too long sleeves. I know I will wear the sleeves scrunched but in the past they were so much too long that scrunching wasn't enough. </p> <p>Hope you find your perfect jacket soon. These sound like some good suggestions. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-jacket-3#post-365970 Mon, 13 Jun 2011 18:55:55 +0000 yellowgirl 365970@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Glad to see this question posted, modgirl! I, too, am in search of a denim jacket. I found one I really like at Gap this past weekend - the London Cropped Jacket, but it's only in white on their website. Think I may be going back for it.<br /> Good suggestion about looking at thrift stores, too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-jacket-3#post-365913 Mon, 13 Jun 2011 17:44:07 +0000 Heather 365913@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay, Rae. I am an AF fan, too. </p> <p>MG: I suggest looking at Abercrombie, H&amp;M or AE. I wish you the best of luck on your search. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-jacket-3#post-365910 Mon, 13 Jun 2011 17:42:05 +0000 catgirl 365910@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I second Patty's suggestion - there are billions of them at our local thrift stores, including cropped ones. And I got mine at F21. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-jacket-3#post-365901 Mon, 13 Jun 2011 17:29:55 +0000 Patty 365901@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You might want to try a thrift store Modgrl--I couldn't believe how many were in my two local shops!! I bought a size 40 for a friend for $3.99!!! I can remember a day when jean jackets were rare and coveted, stolen if you weren't paying attention--now they fill a rack at Goodwill!<br /> Happy hunting! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-jacket-3#post-365890 Mon, 13 Jun 2011 16:53:26 +0000 Mo 365890@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I absolutely love my DKNY petite denim jacket. Ebay has a similar one right now - of course there are no returns, so if you don't know how the brand fits that might make it a no go for you <a href="http://cgi.ebay.com/NWT-DKNY-DARK-BLUE-DENIM-BUTTON-FRONT-CUTE-JACKET-P-98-/350465034764?pt=US_CSA_WC_Outerwear&#038;hash=item5199580a0c" rel="nofollow">http://cgi.ebay.com/NWT-DKNY-D.....5199580a0c</a><br /> And I sometimes find Jr's tops or jackets fit me well (and I'm over 40) because the armholes aren't as low. You just have to look a little harder there to be sure it's not teeny bopper styling. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-jacket-3#post-365886 Mon, 13 Jun 2011 16:47:28 +0000 modgrl 365886@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great suggestions, none of these stores are on my radar because I would have to get to an actual mall to shop at one. I like one jacket I saw on the F21 site, but it turned out to be a kids' size. Are there usually more denim jackets in the fall or is this a spring only item? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-jacket-3#post-365876 Mon, 13 Jun 2011 16:23:22 +0000 rae 365876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The puffy sleeves and embellishments do not seem to fit the bill for the classic jacket you want. I agree w/ F21 and H&amp;M suggestions - you might also try Abercrombie and Hollister (yeah, I know, the hated perfume makes them a no-go for many, but vintage-y denim stuff seems to be their thing). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-jacket-3#post-365868 Mon, 13 Jun 2011 16:14:55 +0000 Anonymous 365868@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd love the second one if it didn't have the embellishments. That's a deal breaker. Do the puffy sleeves of the JCP jacket fit your style? Do you have narrow shoulders? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-jacket-3#post-365866 Mon, 13 Jun 2011 16:12:23 +0000 kellygirl 365866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Have you tried H&amp;M or Forever21? I've seen cute cropped jackets in recent months. I love the Levi one but the price seems exorbitant. Not crazy about the puffy sleeves on the JCP version. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-jacket-3#post-365857 Mon, 13 Jun 2011 16:05:32 +0000 modgrl 365857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This is the one I am really checking out but it is also somewhat juvenile and out of reach. </p> <p><a href="http://www.shopbop.com/70062-shrunken-trucker-jacket-levis/vp/v=1/845524441898053.htm?folderID=2534374302185180&#038;fm=browse-brand-shopbysize-viewall&#038;colorId=34883" rel="nofollow">http://www.shopbop.com/70062-s.....orId=34883</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-jacket-3#post-365848 Mon, 13 Jun 2011 15:57:25 +0000 modgrl 365848@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Is this cute or juvenile? </p> <p><a href="http://www.jcpenney.com/jcp/X6.aspx?GrpTyp=PRD&#038;ItemID=1b1dbf5&#038;submit%20search.y=0&#038;Ntt=denim+jacket&#038;SearchString=denim+jacket&#038;hdnOnGo=true&#038;Ne=840+4+877+878+5+961+6+29+3+598+11+15+12+506+10+23+585+596+963+579+1031+8+1022+1014+586+1007+879+1027+18+904+903+969+833+949&#038;NOffset=0&#038;SelDim=6~+6~&#038;submit%20search.x=0&#038;Nao=0&#038;N=4294959029+508&#038;SO=0&#038;PSO=0&#038;CmCatId=searchresults" rel="nofollow">http://www.jcpenney.com/jcp/X6.....rchresults</a></p> <p>I am actually looking for a classic denim jacket, but they all seem like they would be too long for me. </p> <p>YAY: Cute AND appropriate<br /> NAY: Why are you looking in the junior department when you are pushing 40? </p>
