They seem too big maybe? It only really matters I suppose if it inhibits your reaching for things. Sorry, cut is just one of those things I really focus on in clothing, probably much more so than "normal". In any case I think the jacket style looks great on you, and the outfit is very flattering. I like it half-zipped or open, personally, but closed is okay too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-top-jacket-keep-or-return#post-394740 Sun, 31 Jul 2011 02:51:49 +0000 MNsara 394740@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it on you all three ways! I think when you find a piece with such graceful lines, in *your* colour, you should be happy wearing it for a few years at least?</p> <p>Another arty, earthy look for you </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-top-jacket-keep-or-return#post-394735 Sun, 31 Jul 2011 02:43:33 +0000 rae 394735@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it best fully zipped, and next best wholly unzipped. The half zip seems awkward somehow but, overall, I think it's an artsy/drapey piece that is no particular trend, so I could see it worn indefinitely... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-top-jacket-keep-or-return#post-394690 Sun, 31 Jul 2011 01:42:52 +0000 modgrl 394690@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>As long as you can resolve the sleeve length by rolling or pushing them up, I think the jacket is great. I really like the rouching. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-top-jacket-keep-or-return#post-394669 Sun, 31 Jul 2011 01:06:54 +0000 Debora 394669@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote Yay! Looks great, Jean! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-top-jacket-keep-or-return#post-394637 Sun, 31 Jul 2011 00:01:47 +0000 Maya 394637@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it, and it's H&amp;M, so really, who cares if it's dated by next season? You'll still get your money's worth... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-top-jacket-keep-or-return#post-394555 Sat, 30 Jul 2011 21:35:46 +0000 Mellllls 394555@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>what a unique jacket! i especially like it as a blouse but it works in all three pictures. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-top-jacket-keep-or-return#post-394551 Sat, 30 Jul 2011 21:32:23 +0000 greenglove 394551@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks ladies- no worries about the sleeve length- they can be pushed to elbow length easily which actually looks better.</p> <p>Filling a hole? Hmmm.. probably not except as a blouse. I do want more things that I can wear as blouses. I will try to post with a skirt- I think the length makes it work well with high waisted pants and skirts. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-top-jacket-keep-or-return#post-394548 Sat, 30 Jul 2011 21:29:21 +0000 bran888 394548@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love this! It's figure flattering and I think the color is good for you. I also like it as both a jacket and a blouse. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-top-jacket-keep-or-return#post-394545 Sat, 30 Jul 2011 21:26:47 +0000 lynn 394545@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It does look incredible on you but I suspect that most things do with your figure! I too question the sleeve length but if that is ok, then I would keep because the color can go into fall making it a three season jacket. Can't beat that! Don't worry about the ruching because that will take a few years before you "wouldn't be seen in something so dated"! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-top-jacket-keep-or-return#post-394541 Sat, 30 Jul 2011 21:23:58 +0000 Marigold 394541@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it!! Number 3 best I bet it'll be in style for years to come. I had a similar ruched green jacket that I absolutely loved that I got maybe 5 years ago? I wore it beginning fall as a jacket then throughout the winter under my puffer coat and into spring. It died some time ago *sniff sniff* - maybe I need to take a look in H&amp;M for a replacement? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-top-jacket-keep-or-return#post-394538 Sat, 30 Jul 2011 21:15:23 +0000 Vix 394538@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>IMO it looks great on you all 3 ways. Seems like a good lightweight layering piece if you need one/more of those! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-top-jacket-keep-or-return#post-394515 Sat, 30 Jul 2011 20:50:34 +0000 taylor 394515@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it...kinda funky...You can make this work all 3 ways because the color/ fit is good on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-top-jacket-keep-or-return#post-394511 Sat, 30 Jul 2011 20:47:23 +0000 Suz 394511@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What an interesting piece! I can imagine you styling it in all kinds of great ways. </p> <p>So I guess the question is, does it fill a hole, can you imagine having fun with it, is it a practical piece for you, or at the price, is it worth it, regardless? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-top-jacket-keep-or-return#post-394507 Sat, 30 Jul 2011 20:44:20 +0000 Anonymous 394507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't know if this is filling a hole in your wardrobe or not, but I think the shape is amazing on you, as well as the color! What a waist. It would be a shame to hide that under a boxy jacket.</p> <p>Even IF this turns out to be "passe" next year (which it probably won't), I would keep wearing it if I were you, because it suits you so well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-top-jacket-keep-or-return#post-394501 Sat, 30 Jul 2011 20:34:56 +0000 Ornella 394501@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks great on you - everything you put on does, always. So, the question here for me is really whether the top/jacket itself is a keeper and I am not keen. I can't tell anything about the fabric from the photos, but i think you've got much much more awesome jackets of similar style, so my vote is pass. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-top-jacket-keep-or-return#post-394495 Sat, 30 Jul 2011 20:22:52 +0000 Janet 394495@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it, but I'm wondering about the sleeve length -- I can't tell, but is it a bracelet length? It seems kind of in-between. Maybe pushing the sleeves up will help. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-top-jacket-keep-or-return#post-394488 Sat, 30 Jul 2011 20:17:06 +0000 Vildy 394488@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It has the kind of ruching that looks like it's a natural accommodation of the<br /> fabric to your shape. What do you care if other people stop wearing a construction<br /> feature when you look like you're wearing something made just for your amazing<br /> shape. If it were me in that jacket looking so good, you'd have to treat me for some medical condition<br /> where it fused to me! I think you could wear that the rest of your life. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-top-jacket-keep-or-return#post-394486 Sat, 30 Jul 2011 20:16:25 +0000 Mo 394486@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it! If I hadn't just gotten the linen ON moto, I'd be hunting this down instead. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-top-jacket-keep-or-return#post-394485 Sat, 30 Jul 2011 20:16:14 +0000 kellygirl 394485@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look amazing in everything, Jean. This is no exception. I vote keep. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-top-jacket-keep-or-return#post-394468 Sat, 30 Jul 2011 19:54:36 +0000 Jonesy 394468@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it all three ways! I don't think the ruching will date it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-top-jacket-keep-or-return#post-394466 Sat, 30 Jul 2011 19:53:03 +0000 morethanbeige 394466@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow, Jean, I like it all three ways. Really shows your tiny waist. And I am so glad to hear that you cannot always tell if something is "fab or awful." Because I am often in doubt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-top-jacket-keep-or-return#post-394460 Sat, 30 Jul 2011 19:48:35 +0000 AJ 394460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have no idea if the ruching will be dated soon or not but I think it looks great on you!</p> <p>I like all three versions, but #3 is especially nice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/hm-top-jacket-keep-or-return#post-394453 Sat, 30 Jul 2011 19:43:06 +0000 greenglove 394453@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can not tel if this is really fab or awful. I tried it on in the store and 2 people stopped me to say how much they liked it. It is a summer weight and am wondering if the ruching on the side will date by next season. Have not styled it and am showing it both open, partially zipped and zipped. I am thinking it is better zipped as a blouse. What do you think? </p>
