Need Help Finding a Jean Jacket

beach-mom — Fri, 01 Sep 2017 03:37:33 GMT

DD is looking for a jean jacket. She wants one in medium to dark denim with an inside pocket (none of mine have that). She wants to spend around $60 or so.

She found a Lularoe one she likes for $100 and asked me what I thought. Of course it's up to her, but I think she'd be paying more for the name. Of course she and her friends (20's) have quite a collection of Lularoe! Then if she wants that one, she has to wait for a Lularoe rep to post it on her Facebook page and then DD has to bid on it. (I still don't understand how it works, but a good friend of hers sells it and I did buy a "Carly" from her, which I like. I tried it on. I was definitely not going to get one without being sure of my size!)

So if any of you can recommend one here or somewhere else, I'd appreciate it!

In May, I bought Issac Mizrahi's True Denim jean jacket in Medium Indigo, A288658. With tax and shipping, it was $67. I just checked and it has inside pockets near where the outside pockets are. I like it, it washed nicely and is true to size.

Should she consider black, there's a knock out one at Talbots and they're having a sale. It's on the way to me!

LLB has this one, $69 but then 25% off with the code on the home page.

1912 Jean Jacket

Item #: TA292222 (misses)

Item #: TA294341 (petites)

The reviewers mention an inside pocket. You could contact CS to confirm that there is one- they are very helpful.

Thanks @ECBG, @chessylady, @lolakimono, and @AmericanBulldogMom!

I will show her what you all found and see what she says. I think any of these is a better option than spending $100 on one from Lularoe! DH would think she was out of her mind!

Was at JCPenney's today and noticed that had received jean jackets in various departments.

Some had embroidery (very cute), some had the distressed look.

They just came in so I didn't notice any "discounted" sale signage yet.

You or she may want to take a look.

My new black jacket from Talbots. The wrist is turned back so they seem shorter. Also, the buttons are black! On sale! Wahoooooooo!

Diane Gilman makes some nice jean jackets. Many are on clearance right now. This one marked down from $60 to 40:

@ECBG I love your black jacket from Talbots. It looks so crisp and dressy. Is it a true denim?

Yes it is. It's just a little cut above other jackets, but at home with jeans definately! Regular sizing.

Jean jackets are my staple 9 months of the year. All of them are from Chicos (via Ebay!). I have 15 or so and never spend more than $30 each. Never been disappointed and get loads of compliments.

@patbz Wow that's impressive👏 Do you have lots of different colors, prints?

Re: Need Help Finding a Jean Jacket

patbz — Sat, 02 Sep 2017 01:00:31 GMT

@Greeneyedlady21: Some of my jackets are print but most are different washes with embroidery. My favorite jacket which is light wash with floral embroidery (I bought the original at Chicos for $150 and subsequently wore out) I have 3 of the same (for travel, our beach trailor, etc).

@ECBG I like it, and it's different with mandarin style collar and bottom. Show us pic's when you get a chance!

TY again everyone! @ECBG - I LOVE your jacket! So cute and fashionable!

ETA: I have quite a few too, in different colors. Most of them are from "the old" Coldwater Creek. I have a hand-embroidered one from their flagship store that ended up at the Delaware outlet store in my size - and for a great price. I treasure that one!

@beach-mom, Have you tried The Gap or Banana Republic? Everyone is having sales for the end of summer. Old Navy has jean jackets for $36 and change.

@SouthFlorida321That type of a collar on a jacket is a stretch for me. I love a pointed collar! The pure black and black buttons closed the deal!

I was just going to say that Old Navy had loads of jean jackets both dark denim and bleached denim prior to school starting and they even have two inner pocket like areas that could hold items! For under $40 your DD should check it out.

I have the bleached denim.
