I was looking for a new jacket-- one that was stylish AND warm. Sometimes that is hard to find... I am fairly petite, and was wondering if this jacket would be too bulky, but it's not! The jacket has a nice fit in all the right places that is true to size (for me, anyway). And with it being down fill, it's fitted, but still very warm! Perfect for Minnesota winters. And the hood... the hood is so nice and warm as well. I love that the hood trim extends down to the chest area so it also looks like a scarf. The faux fur is also THE BEST faux fur I've ever seen on a jacket. It looks great and is soft to the touch-- not scraggly and scratchy like most faux fur trims. The faux leather details on the shoulders and zippers adds a nice contrast. I got the black jacket, and expected it to gather and show every piece of pet hair, but surprisingly, it seems to repel pet hair in addition to water! The price is also great, too! My co-worker even bought the same one after she saw mine. We've gotten many compliments. Very pleased with this jacket and would recommend this to anyone wanting something warm, stylish, AND flattering!
