I'll need to give those a try - I just happened to see this one and thought I'd give it a shot and I don't think it's *quite* what I want. I'm going to keep looking for a more cropped style. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-the-right-denim-jacket-for-me#post-627011 Wed, 23 May 2012 19:02:36 +0000 modgrl 627011@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Did you try h&amp;m, f21 or American Eagle? They seem to have really cropped denim jackets. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-the-right-denim-jacket-for-me#post-627002 Wed, 23 May 2012 18:55:31 +0000 christy 627002@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Brenda &amp; Christieanne - thanks for the suggestion. A white denim jacket just might be the place for me to start. </p> <p>Una, thank you for the measurements that tend to work for you and the heads up about thrifting them. That might be a good place to buy my first and then see how much wear I get out of a blue denim jacket. </p> <p>And to everyone else who weighed in - thank you! Your feedback is always so helpful! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-the-right-denim-jacket-for-me#post-626424 Wed, 23 May 2012 01:26:47 +0000 qfbrenda 626424@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>How about white denim? That would work with jeans on the weekend.</p> <p>Ha! I accidentally echoed Christianne. That's what I get for leaving a thread open and waiting a while to respond to it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-the-right-denim-jacket-for-me#post-626421 Wed, 23 May 2012 01:25:15 +0000 christieanne 626421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>White denim? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-the-right-denim-jacket-for-me#post-626371 Wed, 23 May 2012 00:45:44 +0000 christy 626371@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well of *course* I need two Deborah! So, this one is okay for pants, probably won't work as well with skirts/dresses. I really need to think through where/when I am going to wear it. Pretty much only on the weekends - and I rarely wear skirts or dresses then. But I tend to wear jeans on the weekends and I probably won't wear jeans with the jacket. Hmmm... do I need a denim jacket?</p> <p>I do need some kind of casual jacket to throw on for the weekends - if not denim, then what? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-the-right-denim-jacket-for-me#post-626341 Wed, 23 May 2012 00:05:34 +0000 Deborah 626341@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the jacket and see it working with pants really well, but perhaps not so well with skirts. Maybe you need two? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-the-right-denim-jacket-for-me#post-626310 Tue, 22 May 2012 23:41:26 +0000 Transcona Shannon 626310@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Aida - the fit on this jacket is really good and the length would work well with pants, but a shorter one would be better with skirts and dresses. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-the-right-denim-jacket-for-me#post-626285 Tue, 22 May 2012 22:51:00 +0000 Aida 626285@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think this one would work with pants (my pants-length denim jacket looks like this on me), but not cropped enough for skirts/dresses. So depends on what you want to wear it with </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-the-right-denim-jacket-for-me#post-626260 Tue, 22 May 2012 22:16:50 +0000 catgirl 626260@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've realized that due to my height (or lack of), "cropped" on me is 16" or shorter in length. Most so-called cropped jackets are between 18 - 20" and look like yours does on me. It's a very nice fit on you - however, I'd go for more cropped if that's what you want. </p> <p>BTW, I just found three cropped denim jackets at the thrift store. The juniors brands are easier to find. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-the-right-denim-jacket-for-me#post-626243 Tue, 22 May 2012 22:01:21 +0000 christy 626243@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks ladies! I wouldn't wear it closed - not sure why I took a picture that way! LOL!</p> <p>I think I'm going to try out the BP one - I don't think this one is cropped enough. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-the-right-denim-jacket-for-me#post-626229 Tue, 22 May 2012 21:48:14 +0000 keruchina 626229@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks great open with pants. If you want to be able to button it, I would size up.</p> <p>If you want it to wear with skirts and dresses, maybe more cropped would be better. If you're still in Nordstrom, I recommend trucking up to the juniors section to try the BP jacket that Angie also recommended. I tried both of those and preferred the BP one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-the-right-denim-jacket-for-me#post-626227 Tue, 22 May 2012 21:46:59 +0000 Meredith1953 626227@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Christyg,<br /> The fit is great but it doesn't look very cropped in the pictures if cropped is what your after. Mine isn't very cropped either but I plan to get a second one that will be more cropped. I do like it on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-the-right-denim-jacket-for-me#post-626223 Tue, 22 May 2012 21:44:44 +0000 nicoleb 626223@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks good to me open, not sure about closed? And i don't think it looks *that* cropped? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-the-right-denim-jacket-for-me#post-626221 Tue, 22 May 2012 21:42:44 +0000 christy 626221@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Had to run by the mall today and saw the Jag denim jacket that Angie posted a while back. This is a petite in size small. I'm not sure if it's cropped enough? What do you all think? In work clothes here so not styled. </p>
