5.0 out of 5 stars. Dark navy tunicReviewed by Anonymous from kokomo, IN on Thursday, May 23, 2013I contemplated getting this top due to some of the negative reviews, went with my gut and love of hard to find dark navy items...and so glad I did!!! What an unusual find!!! Looks like a boutique piece to me...just pair it with a belt or multiple belts to match your engagement, mood, outfit...jeans and boots...leggings and shooties...white sateen pants and navy silk sandals...or middle of the road chain...casual to evening...with or without a lacy cami...this shimmery little number is a WOW! I did have to buy 2 sizes up, as that was all that was available....again...well placed belts draws this little number up into a refined looking tunic for many sizes and shapes!

1.0 out of 5 stars. Hard to figure outReviewed by Seaneen from Portland, Oregon on Tuesday, May 18, 2010This coat had a lot of volume and not very flattering. As another review stated it is very flimsy fabric and not nice enough to wear to a nice occasion. I am sending it back as I am not smart enough to figure out how to wear this!

5.0 out of 5 stars. great jacketVerified Buyer Reviewed by la in la from la,ca on Monday, May 3, 2010I hate polyester but made an exception because I love the color, the detail and the style. The body is full, the fabric is very fine and lightweight; the styling is fun and can go from casual to special occasion. The sleeves were a bit long and have been tailored.

1.0 out of 5 stars. What A DisappointmentVerified Buyer Reviewed by Lillian from Midwest on Thursday, April 29, 2010I am puzzled as to the purpose of this jacket. With snaps in the front it is too casual for formal occasions. Too light weight for warmth. Too expensive to wear as a housecoat. Thank goodness Sierra Trading has a consumer-friendly return policy!

4.0 out of 5 stars. Retail price must be a mistakeReviewed by frequent shopper from Nashville, TN on Monday, April 26, 2010There is absolutely No Way that this jacket could have originally sold for over a thousand dollars. While it is a beautiful color and a nice style, it is just a polyester shell with nothing extraordinary about it. It was definitely worth the [$] that I ended up paying for it, but I would be very, very surprised if the original price was over $150.
