I think sweet and boxy is a definite no : ) You are absolutely right about the cropped denim. Honestly, what would I do without you peeps? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-on-jacket-review-for-team-shoulder#post-422626 Thu, 15 Sep 2011 02:22:09 +0000 Carole 422626@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Kelly, love # 2, perfect for your IVshape! I'm not loving the cropped, I'm not sure why, maybe, as a fellow IV shape it seems boxy. I like the last jacket too, with skinnies I think this would work well you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-on-jacket-review-for-team-shoulder#post-422619 Thu, 15 Sep 2011 02:15:05 +0000 kellygirl 422619@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Rita, devon and Aida!<br /> @devon: Nice to know that someone commiserates who is on the other end of the height spectrum : )<br /> @Aida: Sweet! I think that's what had me hesitating initially. I'm going to see if it can be toughened up ; ) I can't wait to see what you do with that vest! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-on-jacket-review-for-team-shoulder#post-422587 Thu, 15 Sep 2011 01:48:34 +0000 Aida 422587@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE #2 on you! I just picked up the vest version of that jacket, I think #1 is OK, seems a bit sweet. #3 looks too big to me, but perhaps could work if sized down; shoulder on a smaller size should still fit OK. The sleeves are also pretty darn long on that one </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-on-jacket-review-for-team-shoulder#post-422455 Wed, 14 Sep 2011 23:21:05 +0000 devon7 422455@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the first 2 jackets, but agree that the third one is perhaps a size too big. I feel your pain regarding the shoulder issue! I have to tailor almost every jacket I own because when it fits in the shoulders, it's too big in the torso area... I would love to find a jean jacket like the one you got, but I am really long arms and I'm 5'10", so I don't hold out a lot of hope, unless I can find something in tall sizes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-on-jacket-review-for-team-shoulder#post-422453 Wed, 14 Sep 2011 23:16:30 +0000 bella 422453@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for the tip about the coupon. I see a trip to ON in my very near future!:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-on-jacket-review-for-team-shoulder#post-422429 Wed, 14 Sep 2011 22:34:48 +0000 modgrl 422429@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love 1 and 2, thanks for the reviews. You have such a great body, I hate to see it hiding under so much fabric in 3. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-on-jacket-review-for-team-shoulder#post-422421 Wed, 14 Sep 2011 22:27:14 +0000 kellygirl 422421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Lenni A: Hope it works out for you : )<br /> @Bella: That is exactly the one. I noticed many reviewers thought the jacket was awkward fitting--that the drawstring was too high. I think it's just right. There is a 30% off coupon on the website or at Retail Me Not (for use in store only.) It's pretty reasonable to start with but the coupon makes it irresistible.<br /> @Kim: Thanks for being candid, Kim. I think it does look a bit shapeless too--sizing down may help. Nice neutral color though, eh? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-on-jacket-review-for-team-shoulder#post-422416 Wed, 14 Sep 2011 22:13:35 +0000 Queen Mum 422416@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE #2 on you! That one is perfect.<br /> The last one actually seems a bit big and shapeless on you... I hate to say that when you found it so comfy, but I have to be honest </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-on-jacket-review-for-team-shoulder#post-422415 Wed, 14 Sep 2011 22:11:35 +0000 bella 422415@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And I agree that you can get away with a smaller size in the knit jacket. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-on-jacket-review-for-team-shoulder#post-422414 Wed, 14 Sep 2011 22:10:50 +0000 bella 422414@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been eyeing that utility jacket, it looks so good on you. This is it, right?<br /> <a href="http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/product.do?cid=55474&#038;vid=1&#038;pid=864318&#038;scid=864318012" rel="nofollow">http://oldnavy.gap.com/browse/.....=864318012</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-on-jacket-review-for-team-shoulder#post-422351 Wed, 14 Sep 2011 20:50:07 +0000 Lenni A 422351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very cute. I share your shoulder-fit issue, so I can sympathize! My favorite is the utility jacket. I might have to check that out! Thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-on-jacket-review-for-team-shoulder#post-422344 Wed, 14 Sep 2011 20:45:32 +0000 kellygirl 422344@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, Jonesy. These are all very much my casual style. I think I could probably size down in the knit jacket--I need to check the fabrication and see if it will shrink after a wash and tumble dry. Need to do some closet evaluating before I cut any tags : ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-on-jacket-review-for-team-shoulder#post-422328 Wed, 14 Sep 2011 20:08:42 +0000 Jonesy 422328@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These look great, especially 1 and 2! Does 3 seem a pinch too big :)? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/quick-on-jacket-review-for-team-shoulder#post-422314 Wed, 14 Sep 2011 19:29:34 +0000 kellygirl 422314@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really struggle when it comes to jackets--what fits my shoulders generally doesn't fit anywhere else. Imagine my surprise when everything I ordered fit! Not sure what I'm keeping (if anything) but thought some of you might find the information useful--especially if you are looking for cropped jackets. For reference, I'm 5'3". All of these are regular size--not petite (although a couple items were available in petite.) </p> <p>1. Collarless cropped denim jacket, medium. This one has a bit of stretch and is super comfy. I saw this on KristinKP's blog and thought I'd give it a try. I don't really need another denim jacket but I'm tempted to keep it because it's so cute.</p> <p>2.) Cropped utility jacket, medium. This is a bit more snug in the arms and armholes. I would only wear this with a light layer. It has a drawstring that can be adjusted to give waist definition. Overall, a nice spring and early fall layer.</p> <p>3.) Knit moto style jacket, medium. Loose and comfy. I could live in this. The fabrication is rather flimsy but seems perfect for a California fall. Lots of ease in this baby so would work with layers.</p> <p>ETA: I didn't bother to style. I just through them on over what I happened to be wearing. </p>
