Everyone has their own version of RATE, right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-denim-jacket-reburb#post-736802 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 15:42:39 +0000 Anonymous 736802@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Like Rae, I've found denim jackets cropped enough in the junior section. You did a great job on that one. I'm considering shortening and cutting off the sleeves of a white denim jacket to make a vest, so your work is very inspiring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-denim-jacket-reburb#post-736791 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 15:19:04 +0000 rae 736791@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks great! I had the same problem with cropped items for many years. Eventually found some from junior's stores. I love how you took matters into your own hands and saved an orphan. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-denim-jacket-reburb#post-736762 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 14:31:44 +0000 Angie 736762@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You clever and gorgeous creature!

This is a great length for dresses. I like the little extra bit of fraying, it looks intentional. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-denim-jacket-reburb#post-736652 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 11:15:16 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 736652@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you did a great job on the jacket. I don't even mind the bit of fraying as it seems to go with the jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-denim-jacket-reburb#post-736634 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 09:11:59 +0000 Deborah 736634@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Caro thank you! The pants were just what I had on this afternoon, definitely not what I would wear with the jacket:). I'm thinking more skirts and dresses with the jacket:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-denim-jacket-reburb#post-736633 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 09:10:25 +0000 Caro in Oz 736633@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the jacket &amp; with the top &amp; think the length is great, but I'm not sure about the pants. It may just be the light. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-denim-jacket-reburb#post-736627 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 08:32:55 +0000 Deborah 736627@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Harmonica!

I love casual Deborah and the DIY cropped denim jacket - so clever! You look fab as always! I also see how this is Deb-RATE (opposed to Una-RATE). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-denim-jacket-reburb#post-736623 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 08:17:48 +0000 Kiwichik 736623@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-denim-jacket-reburb#post-736621 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 08:14:17 +0000 Deborah 736621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Jen will have a look:). This is an old Esprit Jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-denim-jacket-reburb#post-736619 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 08:06:05 +0000 jen 736619@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Jacket looks good, I like the wash. I have found Esprit have some nice cropped denim jackets at the moment in a few different styles. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/diy-denim-jacket-reburb#post-736618 Tue, 02 Oct 2012 07:59:51 +0000 Deborah 736618@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi Ladies,</p> <p>We are on school holidays at the moment so excuse the sunnies but after a day spent at home with four 9 year old boys, lets just say Im not at my best lol. Master 9 had a great day though :)</p> <p>I managed to hide away for a while and have a play with a denim jacket. I love the look of the cropped denim jacket but I am short and I appear to be high waisted so I can never find a denim jacket short / cropped enough... SO this one was on the donate pile and I cut the band off, shortened the jacket and reattached the band. Now this was a very 'shonky' job as I hand sewed the band (I really need a good sewing machine). Because of this there is some fraying showing between the jacket and the band BUT I kind of felt this was a little RATE... at least my version of RATE (maybe not Una RATE). </p> <p>So how does the jacket look? Is this ok lengthwise etc. If you think so I will take my other jacket to my seamstress and have it done professionally.</p> <p>And please if I am totally misguided about the fraying being a bit "RATE" do let me know </p>
