I was hesitant to purchase this jacket, because I wasn't sure what size to buy. I normally wear an x-small or small in outerwear depending on the fabric. But because it was faux leather I was concerned about the cut under the arms. I was thinking an x-small might be too constrictive and it wouldn't allow me to raise my arms comfortably and it might pull too much. But because it was lightweight, I took a chance on the x-small and I am glad I did. It fit me perfectly and it was not uncomfortable.
I love this style and the fact that it was short. I am only 5'2" and weigh 95 lbs. I bought this jacket to wear with my flared jeans, and I wanted it to make my legs look longer, which it did. If you are a shorter person, cropped jackets look better because they are not so overwhelming and they make you look taller than what you are.
The sleeves were a little long, but I like them that way. It doesn't look like you outgrew the jacket.
The fabric is soft and pliable and not stiff. I have bought several faux leather jackets in the past, but this style, texture and fit was the best I have ever had.
It is perfect for the fall weather. I mostly wear denim jackets, but this gives me a dressy alternative. The x-small was just the right size, style and fit for me, because I don't intend to wear heavy sweaters under it. So you will have to decide the kind of clothing you will be wearing underneath it to select the size you need.
Even though the zipper is slightly off center, I can wear it open (which will be most of the time) without it looking funny and the lapels lay flat.
So if you want a lightweight, fashionable and comfortable faux leather jacket that doesn't look or feel cheap, I highly recommend this one. I guarantee you will get alot of compliments.
Side note---packaging was good and it was not wrinkled. Yeah!!
