Gorgeous, thick and substantial. I live in the frozen tundra of the Great Lakes region. This coat is warm enough for mid to late fall. In a more temperate region, it might take you into the winter months.

As Angie warned, it is scratchy. Too scratchy for me. It is a lot of coat. Doable, I think, in the mint color.

I had troubles with the zipper. Might just be me, but I would've taken it off and on a few more times to see if it was just me or if the ends just weren't quite aligned if the scratchiness hadn't already meant it was going back.

I really like the coat. Beautiful color and fun shape. But you have to be able to tolerate a higher scratchy factor than I can.
