EP - no, these are Current Elliots. The JF ones are called mid-rise slim fit in a very dark plain wash. They are nice and long and make a good deep cuff that stays nice and crisp. $19.00!! Why not? I know it's as bad as buying crap from Walmart, but at least JF has signed agreements to have a their clothing made in certified facilities that support workers properly.
Thirkellgirl - thanks for the hair comment. I have a 'thing' or personal fear of having the same haircut as the prevailing style for 50+ year old women, and am often changing the style according to what is NOT popular at the moment. I had the bangs grown out to a long front, but just couldn't stand looking at it coming and going on every middle-aged woman out there. So I cut it myself in the bathroom last week . It drives my stylist nuts. Because I'll change my mind again next week and add extensions in or something crazy.
Thanks anna, and yes approprio, I intend to wear this jacket for as long as it holds together
