*** The Classic Philosophy Coat
The intriguing details of this coat led me to ponder what came first, the cape or the coat? I saw this fine garment, and thought it had a very interesting cut - it boasts defined cape sleeves on the body of a coat, reminding me of a piece straight from the runway. I envision this coat being absolutely perfect for going out when the weather requires more than just a sweater. With zippered slash pockets, I can easily leave my purse at home along with my worries of losing any belongings, and simply carry around my clutch or billfold in my pockets - pure genius! Also, with its slim silhouette, I won't worry about looking bulky when trekking to the bar after work for mid week happy hour. Most of all, I can see pairing it with a bright, long sleeved shirt or cute, elbow length gloves to highlight its intriguing cropped cape sleeves! We may never know what came first, the cape or the coat, but we do know that when combined, they make a fashionably fascinating garment! -Julie, Fashion Writer

I bought this coat because I was looking for something with wider sleeves, and this one looked like a cheap and cute option. I just received it today (thanks for the fast shipping), but I was disappointed when I tried it on. I like everything else about this coat, but the sleeves look really odd. I could tell from the picture that the sleeves would be puffy, but it looks okay there. When I tried it on, the sleeves looked much too voluminous. I wish that there had been a picture of an actual person wearing this coat. Julie, did you try this coat on before you wrote the product description?
