Is this (these) a duplicate?

I love jackets, hehe. I have several black jackets already.
2 boyfriends
1 I cropped tuxedo style (boxy)
1 cropped classic lapel

I really love this jacket

AND this jacket

Are they too similar to what I have (the Gap one isn't similar to what I have as far as cut, but here's the cropped tuxedo one I already have http://www.google.com/imgres?i.....8AaWndm_Bw)

So I'm not sure what my question really is...but how much is too much when it comes to a black jacket? Are any of these overlapping what I have?

I couldn't pull up an image for the cropped tuxedo you already have.

Pass on the Gap one, Sarah - its a knit and not fab at all, even though the photo is attractive.

If you love cropped black jackets - get another one!

What Angie says Sarah. I picked it up during the BF sale and ended up returning it. Not fab at all.

Sarah I'm so glad you asked this question. I too have been wondering lately how many black jackets is too many.

Sarah, for your Texas weather I could see you in this option:

Thanks Angie! I had the Gap jacket on, and did like the fit, but I didn't really scrutinize quality. My BCBG is a ponte knit (is that different than "knit"?) and I love it. It seems like it's really good quality. I'll try this other one from Nordstrom, but I'll make sure it's good before I keep it.
I bought a few things at the Gap over the past weeks and almost everything has pilled after just one or two wears. The jeans are great, but I wore them twice with tags on before I took them off just in case. 0:)

Very interesting to hear about Gap's tops and jackets. Seems like a good idea to stick with their jeans for now. Although I own TWO pairs of the perfect boot and the darker wash is great yet the lighter wash bags out like crazy!
