So I bought a really cute cropped Tulle jacket a month or so ago, thinking I'd be wearing the hell out of it. It's beige and cotton - perfect for summer, right? Well every time I've tried to pair with a skirt, shorts, or jeans, I've felt more like a waiter in a country club than a magazine girl trying to negotiate the perfect work-play wardrobe. Then I saw this photo of Rachel Bilson sporting a cropped jacket with a long T-shirt and jeans. Ah yes, I need to wear something long to off-set my jacket's "crop-ness." Eureka! Clearly, there is a science to these things and now, seeing as cropped jackets are everywhere this summer, my enlightenment didn't come a moment too soon.
