I totally want a khaki - military style one. And then what do you know, I was browsing Rue La La and bam! fell in love with this James Perse cropped number, on discount for $39.95 (and I had a credit too):<br /> <a href="http://www.ruelala.com/event/product/50177/1411739272/0/DEFAULT" rel="nofollow">http://www.ruelala.com/event/p...../0/DEFAULT</a></p> <p>(BTW, let me know if you need an invite to Rue La La, although I'm pretty sure most of you are on it by now ) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/scouted-super-cropped-jackets/page/2#post-616969 Thu, 10 May 2012 21:44:20 +0000 Aida 616969@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Claire, me too! I'm usually a size up in younger fast fashion stores (eg Forever 21) so I am hoping that, for once, the size chart is accurate and that I didn't actually need my normal size. Fingers crossed for both of us! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/scouted-super-cropped-jackets#post-616758 Thu, 10 May 2012 16:13:52 +0000 citygirldc 616758@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks like I'm going shopping.

Does their sizing run similar to F21? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/scouted-super-cropped-jackets#post-616302 Thu, 10 May 2012 01:14:10 +0000 Jonesy 616302@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These are some cute jackets! Along with Suz and a few others, I find them difficult too. I just don't think they look good on me, maybe because of the combo of height, broad shoulders, and barrel chest :). But I will admire them on you and others! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/scouted-super-cropped-jackets#post-616275 Thu, 10 May 2012 00:53:12 +0000 Suz 616275@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very interesting research! And I am chuckling at how you have enabled so many to go shopping!! </p> <p>I find super cropped jackets difficult. I like them with skirts and dresses (even thought on me, they typically hit at my actual waist rather than a whole lot higher). But on ME they seem to look weird with trousers, unless the top is super low contrast. </p> <p>Very interested to read that you find they work better with tunics than regular tops. I can't make tunics work for me whatsoever, so maybe that explains why I can't do super cropped jackets with pants. Hmmm. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/scouted-super-cropped-jackets#post-616222 Wed, 09 May 2012 23:38:03 +0000 rae 616222@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG, Claire, it's $25 now? Yaaarg, SYC cold sweats commencing... I already very, very narrowly avoided ordering the green one this morning! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/scouted-super-cropped-jackets#post-616179 Wed, 09 May 2012 22:27:32 +0000 Anonymous 616179@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae, thanks to you, I now have two things coming to me in the mail! You are such an enabler. </p> <p>First, I got a white BB shirt on Ebay, like you did. Then I just ordered that white faux leather jacket from Charlotte Russe! Ack! I called my mall store first but they did not have it. I felt I needed to pounce on the $25 deal so I did. I would have skipped this item because it's so close to my cropped white denim jacket, but the *leather* will have a completely different vibe, and I think it will actually be warmer than denim in monster A/C, while still preserving that summer-y look. Plus I'll be able to wear it toowork! Thanks for scouting out this great deal for me, I really appreciate it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/scouted-super-cropped-jackets#post-616044 Wed, 09 May 2012 19:07:44 +0000 rae 616044@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ik, I wear my cropped jackets over dresses and tunic-length tops. I can't get 'em to work with regular tops, either. </p> <p>texstyle, I'm not a maxi person, but I think the long skirt length works with the longer cropped jacket as well. I think the reason I like a shorter crop is because I am always thinking about my short legs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/scouted-super-cropped-jackets#post-615980 Wed, 09 May 2012 16:43:44 +0000 shoppingisfun 615980@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have been wanting a cropped jacket and/or some cropped sweaters lately, so those pics are inspiring to me! As a shorty, I'm looking for some ways to look taller without big heels and I think cropped layers accomplish this well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/scouted-super-cropped-jackets#post-615962 Wed, 09 May 2012 16:10:21 +0000 texstyle 615962@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I do tend to wear mine longer, but then again I think I feel it is a "younger" look or something. What do you guys think of a longer length with a dress (maxi in this example)?</p> <p><a href="http://whatiwore.tumblr.com/post/21781642713/what-i-wore-long-black-dress" rel="nofollow">http://whatiwore.tumblr.com/po.....lack-dress</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/scouted-super-cropped-jackets#post-615930 Wed, 09 May 2012 15:35:09 +0000 ironkurtin 615930@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll go on record as saying I don't get cropped jackets. I feel like they always leave a sloppy swath of shirt showing above my pants. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/scouted-super-cropped-jackets#post-615924 Wed, 09 May 2012 15:18:53 +0000 Anonymous 615924@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm loving the white faux leather one!

I really like them too - especially over skirts and dresses. </p> <p>They *are* harder to wear when you are full in the bust. Bad cut line and not enough coverage. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/scouted-super-cropped-jackets#post-615883 Wed, 09 May 2012 14:06:59 +0000 rae 615883@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay, I'm glad the thread is providing some inspiration! </p> <p>I REALLY want #9 myself - that color! But I technically don't "need" it to get by. Pfft, silly needs. </p> <p>Denise, that has been my problem for years, but jackets finally got short enough. I could see them getting even shorter someday, almost a bolero style.</p> <p>Rita, yes, there are a ton at F21! I had to stop myself from using them for every example. </p> <p>Una and Mo, I ogled that blush jacket for a long time, too! Only now the sizes left anre 8, 10, and 12?? I've never seen that type of sizing before in my life at F21... I wonder if it's an error? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/scouted-super-cropped-jackets#post-615876 Wed, 09 May 2012 13:51:21 +0000 modgrl 615876@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like all of these. I noticed that F21 has a ton.

I like all three (7, 8 and 9) faux leather jackets. At $25 the one from Charlotte Russe is a steal.</p> <p>I am just too short-waisted to wear this look, it hits me lower than my waist. But it's a great look on many others whose waists are in "normal" places, not so high up like on me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/scouted-super-cropped-jackets#post-615738 Wed, 09 May 2012 06:19:25 +0000 catgirl 615738@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Mo, I know you're SYC, but did you see this jacket from F21?</p> <p><a href="http://www.forever21.com/Product/Product.aspx?BR=f21&#038;Category=outerwear_leatherpu&#038;ProductID=2083316554&#038;VariantID=" rel="nofollow">http://www.forever21.com/Produ.....VariantID=</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/scouted-super-cropped-jackets#post-615732 Wed, 09 May 2012 06:04:49 +0000 Mo 615732@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ditto Una.
