A couple of weeks ago, I posted Newness I Like which included the above Dries Van Noten jacket. I ordered it quickly and crossed my fingers it would fit and be all I hoped for. It did and is exactly what I wanted. It satisfies my quest to continue building outfits with little cropped jackets – a silhouette I find incredibly versatile. The Dries piece is going fast. The combination of being a runway item and the announcement of Dries stepping away from his brand spiked high interest. I love the color and fabric – a soft twill that falls nicely open or closed. It also comes in a black linen blend which I’ve ordered as well. Perfect for spring and summer.

Not everyone is obsessed with Dries like me but if the silhouette appeals to you, there are other options that fit the bill. Both Theory and Vince have price friendly styles. More below:
