Battalion Jacket in Black
Join the ranks of the truly fashionable in this on-trend cropped jacket from BB Dakota! As featured in InStyle magazine's August 2009 issue, this adorable, 100% cotton jacket is the perfect way to wear the military-chic trend. The olive-bronze, insignia-inspired embroidery on the bust, shoulders and cuffs evoke all the pomp and circumstance of a ceremonial honor guard, and the super sturdy, cloth-covered eye hook closures at the bust and feminine pleats at the back create a dramatically tailored look. A Mandarin collar with a slight opening at the front of the neck makes it perfect for layering over high-neck blouses or low-cut tees. Pair with skinnies, drop earrings, and and metallic heels, and everyone will be saluting your style!

As soon as I saw this jacket, I thought Michael Jackson; It's a perfect tribute to the King of Pop. Once I received it the first thing I noticed the gold embroidery was so beautiful, better then the pictures. It fit me perfectly, as if it was made for me. The fabric feels so nice, it's a perfect weight. I love the length of the sleeves and the collar. Overall, it's my favorite piece of clothing I own. It's very light weight however, not to be used as a coat, but a perfect addition to you wardrobe.
When I saw this jacket, I had to have it. Not because of Michael Jackson like everyone else, but because I study military history and revolutions, and I like to add a little of that into my style! Absolutely love the jacket! I ordered a small first and it was big. But when I exchanged it for the xsmall it fit great! It is a little shorter than I anticipated, but it still fits. I am not crazy about the shoulder pads, the only thing I take off for, but it all works out. I love it!
i just have to say i love it what a beautiful jacket iam so so happy i will be back thank so so much ....
