I am headed to the mall this evening to return several items and will plan on trying that on. That's a much better price point for me as well! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/j-crew-tweed#post-1631514 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 17:29:30 +0000 catgirl 1631514@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ann Taylor also has a nice option similar to Mary's:</p> <p><a href="http://www.anntaylor.com/open-tweed-jacket/399494?skuId=20325244&amp;defaultColor=1246&amp;colorExplode=false&amp;catid=cata000017" rel="nofollow">http://www.anntaylor.com/open-.....;colorExpl</a></p> <p>It's a bit lighter than the j. crew one and on sale for $84 right now.&nbsp; I tried it on and a MP fit me perfectly.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/j-crew-tweed#post-1631503 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 17:17:03 +0000 deb 1631503@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have the one you posted an it works for me. I have the longer neck and smaller bust, though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/j-crew-tweed#post-1631492 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 17:07:43 +0000 Angie 1631492@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mary's style of jacket is the one to get for a larger bust and shorter neck.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/j-crew-tweed#post-1631431 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 16:13:39 +0000 Anonymous 1631431@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I can't even remember what size I tried on -but I don't recall thinking it was any smaller cut than usual from JCrew. &nbsp;I think it works best on the Angies/Vivians/Suzs of the world - that body type. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/j-crew-tweed#post-1631416 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 16:05:55 +0000 BrieN 1631416@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sorry MsMary I added the photo late, after I had submitted the post. Apologies for not being clearer with my initial description. Funny though, I had ordered the same jacket as you did, but in Navy I'm now nervous that it's going to be too small based on your write up. I will wait eagerly for its arrival.</p> <p>lisap: It sounds as if we are built very, very similarly down to the words I use to describe my figure. Hmmm. I think I will let this beautiful jacket go to off to the lovely person who's yet to discover it.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/j-crew-tweed#post-1631383 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 15:26:26 +0000 MsMary 1631383@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oops! That's not the jacket I bought. I bought this one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/j-crew-tweed#post-1631362 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 15:01:00 +0000 Anonymous 1631362@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I loved it the minute I saw it. Tried it on in a typical JCrew size for me, and , I could not get it off fast enough. It is too squarely cut for me - and I have a fairly, um &nbsp;shall we say " good sized" , chest. 34D or DD . &nbsp; I'm also short waisted and have a very definite waist, and this was a complete disaster. I was SO disappointed. &nbsp;Sorry to be a downer ;(&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/j-crew-tweed#post-1631332 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 14:30:39 +0000 viva 1631332@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Based on Mary's response I would definitely try it. It's so pretty - I love it. (Personally I cannot weigh in on the bust issue as I have almost none. haha) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/j-crew-tweed#post-1631293 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 13:34:36 +0000 MsMary 1631293@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm pretty busty and I bought it and love it. It runs small, though. I ordered several sizes and ended up with the 10P even though normally I'm a M on top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/j-crew-tweed#post-1631288 Fri, 18 Mar 2016 13:24:52 +0000 BrieN 1631288@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I adore the J. Crew light tweed jacket that Angie has posted about. Do you think it would work for someone very busty? &nbsp;The neck looks very high, which is making me think I'd better pass on this one. </p>
