I typically have to size up because my arms are long but I took a leap of faith and ordered the small. Pleasantly surprises that it fit really well! Super cute, comes right to my hips like I was hoping (I'm 5'8"). Just FYI though, this will not keep you warm. The material is pretty thin and with a close look you can tell it's not super high quality. I love the look though. Definitely recommend!

I like to have extra room in my jackets so I got an XL (or 1X) rather than a L. Definitely a good choice. The sleeves end a little past the wrist which is a good length. Not tight in the arms or waist which is a blessing. Pockets are a tad shallow so not all that great for holding phones. Great for hands though. An inside pocket would serve better for devices. The chest pocket is great for credit/metro cards and even a passport since it zips up. Handy for quick access while traveling. Hood covers past my forehead so it works well enough to block rain. Not a fan of the drawstring bits in the back, since they bounce like little ropes into the back of my legs. Overall the jacket is not too thick so its good for spring/fall rainy or cool days. I wore it while in London at the end of May and it was perfect for the chill nights and breezy overcast days. I like the Burgundy color I have so i may get another one in green come the fall.

Very cute but I would order a size up.

I got the LC-Black, which has the plaid inside of the hood and the jacket itself is black. The cincher is on the inside of the coat which allows you to give the coat 'curves.' Well put together. Warm enough to wear outside or inside (if you work in a colder environment). Can layer it easily. Length is good. About what you'd expect for a jacket! It has a polyester lining I believe? It's that shiny sort of material for warmth, the outside is thicker fabric. The hood part has a cute plaid pattern. For 5'6" and small frame with the small jacket sizing, it is actually somewhat big on me. Sleeve length goes past my hands. Without cinching it's boxy, so thankfully that's there. If the plaid had lined the whole inside that would have looked cuter, especially to roll sleeves (the sleeves don't look cute rolled with this jacket but won't stay pushed up because of the inner lining material). There are good and bad things about the jacket.
Pros: Perfect warmth, great color, well made, versatile
Cons: Somewhat big for smaller framed people (there is no XS option), black material does attract lint/white fuzzies/eeeverything, sleeves length/sleeve lack of versatility, cincher strings require heavy knotting otherwise knot goes through hole, sometimes zipper snags on inner flap making it difficult and time-consuming to zip up

I want to start by saying; I love this jacket. You need this jacket. After reading the reviews I went with a large. I'm 5'10" and 150 pounds. It fits a bit large but I think a medium would be too short in the sleeves.

The front of the jacket has some cute stitch detailing and the gold hardware makes it feel a bit more expensive. The hood is very oversized, which I like. There are working cord pulls to cinch the waist and snap buttons are oversized and fasten flatly.

My cons; it's cheaply made-some of the stitching is coming out on one sleeve, the lining is a silk like fabric but made me too hot on humid, rainy day. Speaking of rain-this is not waterproof. I think that is clear in the listing but just a reminder!

This is a great fashion coat. It's worth about what you pay and I expect I will get a couple seasons wear out of it. It has nice lines and makes me appear even taller.
