I have thrifted this jacket - what do you think?

Sveta

I have got this jacket form a thrift store last Friday. Before I spend money on dry cleaning I would like to know if it worth it or should I just write off those $10...
It fits me well but the sleeves are a bit short for me. Should I let them out or rather wear with sleeves scrunched up? It has this ruching in the middle of the sleeve which makes scrunching up even more pronounced. It also has these draped pockets in front which I think are fun.
So what do you think - is it worth keeping? I don't have any black jacket yet...

I think it's quite a good fit on you Sveta - is it a cropped jacket it looks like it ends above your waistline?

Really cool jacket! The fit looks great in the shoulders and throughout the body. I think the sleeves look great scrunched ~ does it feel comfy to wear like that?

Puffenstuff, it comes below my waist and ends around my upper hip so it is not very cropped.
Anne, the fabric is very soft and sleeves are not tight so scrunching them up is really comfy. It fits perfectly in the shoulders and the bust, which is really an unusual thing for me: usually if it fits my shoulder it is too big in the bust...but this one does not need any alterations unless I decide to let out the sleeves.
