"Heavy metal detailing" and "antiqued bronzetone rivets" give this jacket a fun, unique fashion design. Suitable as a jacket/blouse/blazer or as outerwear.

This is a great jacket. I am very picky about materials used, design and this little jacket is well made with good cotton material. I can use it with jeans or skirt. It is on the more casual side, but add a scarf and it's dressier. You cannot beat the price.

I like the rivets because they make the jacket unusual. I wore this the other day when I went to the drugstore, and the woman in the cosmetics department complimented the jacket. In warmer weather I can wear it as outerwear and when it's colder, I can wear it indoors as a layer, over a sleeveless or short-sleeved shirt.
Good idea, but not quite...

I have this jacket in black and it is quite lovely. I have long arms and the sleeves are perfect. But it is tight across the bust and the shoulders for me. The jacket is fitted - nothing like it appears on the model (she must be a size XS but wearing a size XL). I love the brushed cotton material, but the black collects lent and fibers and looks awful if you rub up against an animal or white knit fabrics.

I liked the look of it, but I was rather disappointed when I received it. It looks somehow poor. I was debating if to return it or not and finally I decided to keep it for cloudy days when I have to go shopping or work in the garden.
I had high hopes and boy, was I let down

I ordered three colors with great expectations - I really like a good selection of lightweight jackets to expand my wardrobe. I tried on this jacket and took a good, long look. The rivets, although plentiful, are nothing special. When zipped up, the jacket was snug around the hips. I expected more comfort and style from this type of outerwear. Guess I'll just keep looking...
Fits great, love the military styling.

The pictured jacket looks like the jacket is cut to body shape, showing off the waist, but in person there is not much definition to the cut. I leave it open, wearing it over a blouse. Thinking of making it more shapely by sewing in a couple of "darts" in the back. I'm keeping it because I do like the overall design.
Uniquely embellished look

If you think it looks like this jacket has too many rivets for you...it does. If you usually like a lot of bling and embellishment...then this jacket is for you! : )

It would be nice to see this jacket in various colors with the same studs on it with the exception of the black having a washed silver stud on it.
