Am listing under style exchange if anyone is interested. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-832295 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 19:17:17 +0000 Kristin L 832295@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Is there a way you can put it in front of your other jackets? then if you see yourself always going past it, you know its time for it to move on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-832274 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 18:48:42 +0000 Mo 832274@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm, good points on both sides. I must admit, many of the 'essential, must have' wardrobe items never get used in my closet. Trench coat, white dress shirt, pencil skirt. Have them all, worn each maybe twice lol.<br /> I have a white, cropped denim/cotton jacket that I did toss over a dress a few times the last year since buying it. Perhaps that is my version of the classic essential denim jacket, rather than the blue? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-832124 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 16:08:19 +0000 cheryl 832124@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote to hang on to it for a while longer. It looks like you and like something you could get a lot of use out of. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831880 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 06:20:30 +0000 poppylarue 831880@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have one also I don't wear a lot but to me it is that one timeless piece you can go to especially in a crunch. I say keep it only if it compliments you or you may find a replacement that is more updated!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831771 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 03:18:11 +0000 Karie 831771@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm not crazy about the blazer style of this denim jacket. Do you have another denim jacket you could wear with summer dresses? If so, I vote to pass this one along. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831734 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 02:36:22 +0000 catgirl 831734@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>HAHAHA, Caro! Usually I want to be them, but I don't do white, or denim jackets, and he is wearing them both so well. Sigh. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831733 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 02:34:32 +0000 Sarah A 831733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>After sunset with a bit of altitude gets chilly fast, how many other similar items, long sleeve mid weight toppers abound? if not too many, i'd say keep until replaced (says the girl with a closet full of placeholder items... take with a grain of salt). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831724 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 02:29:52 +0000 Caro in Oz 831724@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So funny Una. Even weirder - I never know if I have a crush on them or want to be them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831669 Tue, 29 Jan 2013 01:54:43 +0000 poppylove 831669@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with the others who said to give it one more season. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831508 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 23:41:45 +0000 Anonymous 831508@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep, it can go. I think it does not jive with your more "rocker punkish" style anymore!<br /> ETA: Ah, ok so it seems we are a bit mixed? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831502 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 23:39:42 +0000 Angie 831502@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Una, we might need to keep you on a leash. </p> <p>:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831497 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 23:37:43 +0000 catgirl 831497@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OMG, I have a total crush on Caro's guy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831496 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 23:37:12 +0000 Angie 831496@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Spanner. I vote pass on. </p> <p>It's not a classic shape, nor an avant- gard one. Looking slightly dated for your style. That's my reasoning - FWIW. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831494 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 23:36:17 +0000 Janet 831494@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am going to be a bit of a spanner here and side with Nicole. You are not reaching for it -- there must be a reason. The other jackets you reach for must have something this one doesn't. I could see giving it another season if you have plenty of room, but it doesn't sound like you love this piece. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831478 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 23:24:01 +0000 Deborah 831478@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree give it another season and then decide:) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831474 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 23:21:34 +0000 Nicole D 831474@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think a jean jacket can be very versatile and denim is such a hot trend - maybe it's the blazer styling that just makes it a little more formal and not what you would reach for when you want a jean jacket. Camp Nay. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831465 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 23:14:26 +0000 unfrumped 831465@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It sounds like it isn't as versatile as you thought since it's not something you grab &amp; go. If it looks really nice with dresses, though, then it's possible to keep an item for that specific use, or identify how you want to upgrade or replace later with something that works with more of your outfits. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831443 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 22:51:49 +0000 Amy 831443@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yep, keep! It's a nice jacket and I can totally see you wearing it with a dress. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831436 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 22:47:19 +0000 Caro in Oz 831436@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Another keep - it would look great with dresses. Do you wear white pants/jeans? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831406 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 22:20:38 +0000 Mo 831406@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, once I started ruminating as I posted, I realized one more season would likely be a wise decision. Thanks for reaffirming this for me :)<br /> Una, that's a great question - that I hope to find the answer to It is very 'me'. But maybe I am in denim on the bottom half in most outfits that I might grab for it?? Don't want the denim tuxedo look lol.<br /> Will spend this summer giving it a go! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831404 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 22:19:18 +0000 vipbrj 831404@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tahoe gets pretty chilly at night in the summer. You will probably need a few jackets like that! I would keep it to see how much you use it this summer. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831400 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 22:13:47 +0000 Suz 831400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes. I say keep for the summer and see what happens. I rarely wear my denim jackets here in Ontario (where our summers are hot and humid). But when I was in the mountains last summer, my white denim jacket was my best friend. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831398 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 22:07:47 +0000 rae 831398@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, see what happens this season. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831392 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 21:59:36 +0000 TraceyLiz65 831392@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote keep and try to make it a priority to grab it more... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831384 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 21:53:07 +0000 Anonymous 831384@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote keep as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831381 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 21:52:12 +0000 CocoLion 831381@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would keep it as well. I am seeing dressier, non-jean jacket styles of jackets come back by high end designers. (In denim material.) This might give you some styling ideas as well.</p> <p><a href="http://www.shopbop.com/advanced-biker-jacket-mcq-alexander/vp/v=1/1589342337.htm?folderID=2534374302166571&#038;fm=hearts-shopbysize-viewall&#038;navFolderId=2534374302166539" rel="nofollow">http://www.shopbop.com/advance.....4302166539</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831378 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 21:51:31 +0000 catgirl 831378@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>it seems very you, Mo. Why don't you reach for it? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831376 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 21:50:56 +0000 Anonymous 831376@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I agree with Thistle - give it the summer. If you still don't reach for it, pass it along! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/should-i-purge#post-831374 Mon, 28 Jan 2013 21:48:55 +0000 Thistle 831374@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would give it one more season to prove its worth. If you don't reach for it this summer in Tahoe, purge it. </p>
