EXACTLY WHAT I WANTED
I am 61 years young. I love this jacket. I am a perfectionist and I look for detail, flaws and neatness. The minute I put the jacket on I checked the sleeve length. Perfect. I checked for an uneven hang. Great. I carefully unbuttoned before trying it on to check the security of each button. Fine. I am 5’7” and 172 and losing ;) I sought after a light weight coat to throw on with a pair of jeans when running out for an errand or to wear to church. It elevates your style immediately. I wore it yesterday and received a couple of compliments. The server at the restaurant commented and said, “Oh I love your coat it looks Sheikh” I will take that as a compliment. Another was a man at a retail store commenting that he liked my matching leopard shoes with my coat. I will take that as well ;) I pictured my self racing around with this jacket tossing it into my car and slipping into it again as a part of my lifestyle. It fit my imagination and expectations to the T! I shook the jacket for shedding and there was none. It came in a vacuumed pack plastic sleeve to save on shipping Im sure which is cost effective for the seller and the buyer, a win win no doubt!! But the second air reached the package the jacket began to rise into shape. There were several minor creases in the back but throughout the day they began subsiding. I wasn’t too concerned or I wouldn’t have worn it. However, I did and I know I will enjoy this coat for years to come. I haven’t seen the leopard print go out of style and Im sure it wont. That’s like never seeing stripes again. I really am tickled over my new coat. Im going to wear it again this morning. Oh yeah, it has deep pockets not in the front but the sides of the coat where it should be was another thing i looked for. I didn’t want a coat that I had to poke my hands down into the front like an apron. Also, it is so soft and fluffy, lined with a silky gold interior and warm. I would buy it again without hesitation. ***UPDATE*** It am finding shedding. It’s not deterred me from loving the coat. It’s light weight and it’s Mar 10 and I wore it again today. Buying it later in the year i thought I was making a mistake and wouldn’t wear it until next year. I wear it every chance I get. Im seeing some shredded on my car seat strap. Im going to give it a good shake before putting it on. I love the coat. I am really glad that it’s light enough to still wear. It started getting up I to the 60’s Saturday morning and I had to take it off. I really love it. I wear it all the time. My new skin! Read more
