How to style this jacket? PIP

[house]

How would you wear this jacket?



I found this at TJMaxx and fell in love! I bought it in light gray. But can't find a pic of that one. What should I wear with this? since it's cropped jacket what I wear under it will show at the waist. For bottoms, I have dark blue and royal blue skinny jeans. I have old cheap black boots have new dark brown booties from Nine west. Can I wear brown with gray?

Any PIPs are welcome! TIA!

umm... anyone? Should I return it? Is it ugly? LOL!

LOL. Have you been hanging out at TJ's again? I'm pretty sure I saw this last week. Is it made by Free People? I really liked it on the rack. I didn't try it on b/c it wouldn't look good on my long torso. I would wear it with a long tank, super dark skinnies and black boots.

I like it a lot. I'd wear it with a striped shirt, skinnies, and riding boots. Cute!

Yup! It's Free People. They had this dark one but only in size 10s. I only found one in my size so I picked it up and decided to ask you ladies instead of having non-buyers remorse. I can always return in case ugly, LOL! Thanks for the suggestion!

You said you fell in love. Get some confidence and wear it!

Whatever u do, don't wear it with that skirt.

Yeah I love the jacket. I sometimes have questionable taste in clothes. I haven't worn it yet but I still have the colorful plaid dress everyone here hated. LOL!

I like the jacket, I have a cropped double-breasted military-style jacket in olive. I usually wear it open over a drapey, longer top and jeans, or with a feminine dress. I don't often close it because it cuts off weird since it's cropped like that.

Hmm.. I don't have any great photos of me wearing the jacket, but this is it (this is a few years ago):


I was wearing a silky print top with a bubble hem, and skinny jeans with my tall moto black Puma boots.

I'd wear it over a sheath dress.

I'd wear it over a navy maxi dress, maxi skirt, big poofy full skirt (kinda like this www.wendyslookbook.com/2012/08/minty-mint-denim-leather-pleats/ )
, skinnies, pencil skirt.

Thanks! Ooh I just remembered Loft has a full skirt I want!
