I ordered #2 in a smaller size, and in a lighter wash, as I liked this one but felt it was just a bit big. Well, the smaller size fit weirdly in the shoulders. And to be honest, I've looked at so many now, I just don't want to keep looking. I really don't think I'll find a fit better than #3. Plus, this was the cheapest of them! I may keep an eye out for another, darker wash one... because as we all know, it's okay to have several denim jackets :)</div><div><br /></div><div>Thank you all for your input and help.&nbsp; </p> <p> </div></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-jacket-take-1/page/2#post-1931873 Tue, 26 Jun 2018 13:42:20 +0000 Janet 1931873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m replying (late to this) without looking at the whole thread first, so it will be interesting to look back and see what others thought.</p> <p>3 is my favorite, and I like 4 too — the lighter wash can be really useful in my experience (more summery!). I like the shape of 2 but the sleeves are quite long. That’s not necessarily a deal-breaker for me as I often roll sleeves. 1 is my least favorite — seems a bit bulky. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-jacket-take-1/page/2#post-1931868 Tue, 26 Jun 2018 13:29:28 +0000 Elizabeth P 1931868@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the input!&nbsp; Much appreciated.&nbsp; No question #3 is the YLF winner! </p> <p>The other one is taking its good ole time - scheduled to be delivered next week :(</p> <p></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-jacket-take-1/page/2#post-1931844 Tue, 26 Jun 2018 11:23:38 +0000 lyn67 1931844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Didn't look to the comments, nr 3 is the best from here! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-jacket-take-1/page/2#post-1931824 Tue, 26 Jun 2018 08:02:11 +0000 Lucy 1931824@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joining the chorus for #3.

That inspired me to use a sharpie on a zipper on a leather jacket. It works, but may need touch ups.

If I had to choose, i’d go for #2 especially as the slightly boxy shape feels fresh but still fitted. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-jacket-take-1#post-1930644 Fri, 22 Jun 2018 11:59:37 +0000 viva 1930644@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#3 for me because it's sleeker, but I can't tell if it's a wee small?</p> <p>After that, #1. The color feels very summery. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-jacket-take-1#post-1930622 Fri, 22 Jun 2018 10:34:30 +0000 Mainelady 1930622@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the color and fit of #3 the best. I think it is the slimmer looking arms and length of the jacket with your dresses that is appealing to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-jacket-take-1#post-1930598 Fri, 22 Jun 2018 06:00:33 +0000 Bijou 1930598@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#3 is the best fit. Will be interested in the sized down #2. This is a great exercise. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-jacket-take-1#post-1930592 Fri, 22 Jun 2018 05:36:52 +0000 Gigi 1930592@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My clear favorite is no. 3. It is less boxy than the other three, and the shoulders seem to fit you well. It also seems slightly shorter than the other three, giving better proportions if you're going to wear it with a dress.</p> <p>No. 1 looks too big overall, IMO, and no. 2 looks too big in the shoulders. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/denim-jacket-take-1#post-1930584 Fri, 22 Jun 2018 04:10:13 +0000 cindysmith 1930584@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#3 is far and away my fave </p>
