I was nervous about getting this coat because there weren't any reviews anywhere online, but I decided to take the plunge as I live in NH for a few months and winter has definitely arrived!Anyway, this coat isn't the MOST stylish, but I'm fine wearing it and I don't worry about my appearance, it's a very "typical' coat. But I have to tell you, it's SO warm, just so incredibly warm and cozy, that I don't even mind walking the mile or so to the drugstore or the gym.
I SOOOO wanted to love this jacket. Great color, materials, warmth etc! BUT and it's a big BUT.... the fit didn't work for me. I am 5'5" and 117 lbs. with an athletic build (wide shoulders and narrow hips), bought the XS, and the coat was too large in the shoulders and too slim in the hips (which usually never happens) . It looked like the fit of a men's jacket on me. I will try again if the fit is revised because the jacket is beautiful but just not for me.
