Bouclé peplum jacket in black

I have previously tried on Bouclé peplum jacket in  Indigo and Navy but although I liked the shape of the jacket, I did not think the colors would work for me. I almost forgot about them and did not even notice that it also came in black, until last week, when somebody mentioned it on JCA.

Surprisingly, this jacket never went on significant sale, unlike many other recent J.Crew offering.

Currently sold out

This actually surprised me because I don't know what you think, but to me the website 'styling' looks sloppy and unflattering.  Apparently, I must be wrong since it seems to be selling well. Shows how little I know...

 

The black is very versatile and would work with any solid color but I like to keep it super simple with all black.

 

The shape is great with a pencil skirt but would also work with pants, skinny jeans and heels or solid color capris. It can read quite elegant but I could see it dressed down with a tissue tneck and a pair of lighter wash boyfriend jeans.

It works zipped up and open, especially with a shift dress. I took bigger of my sizes (medium). The jacket is unlined but I like it this way since it feels more like a sweater and it is easier to wear casually.

Overall, I really like the jacket. My only concern (but it may be a deal breaker) is that it may get fuzzy and pill and it will snag easily because of boucle weave.

I am also wearing  double serge wool pencil skirt, perfect fit t-shirt and Noelle booties.
