Cropped Jacket - would you wear one if you were me?

[biryani]

I love the cropped jacked look teamed with skinny jeans and long tops. I would love to get one but I'm not sure if I'd look muttonish.

I'm 5'4, a bit overweight, size 12. I wear skinnies with boots (heels) all the time, but with long knitwear and scarves/ snoods etc. I'm 52, but not in elasticated waist territory yet. Would a fitted jacket be a step too far, do you think?

I think so. Sorry but I am not a fan of cropped jackets at all. It's nothing to do with your age or shape or size, I just think they are tacky and nasty.
