Cropped jackets were all over the spring runways in Milan and Paris. Jacket hems falling right at the waist, above it, below the breasts and creeping even further upward...there was no controlling the CROP! And what a fine crop it was. This great jacket length can take a highly sophisticated look and downplay the dress(y) rehearsal to create a casual and fun feel. Unexpected colors, bright prints, sultry satins and classic black were all there. You MUST click the jump to see Jean Paul Gaultier's version...it's cropped so short it's practically nonexistent. We should all know, by now, these are the rage for fall...but what good news I bare as they are still going to be CHIC for spring...and the winter selection and colors can be easily carried over to next season. Simply tossed over a cute slip/maxi dress or even over a casual tank with jeans...from Target to Topshop, cropped jackets are easy to find now a days. YAY for cropped jackets, such a versatile look for all seasons! Speedy-Savvy-Stylin, you ask? Def check back later...I've got you cropped and covered for sure!
