Lovely jacket!!

Yes, I recommend this

Beautiful pink hooded jacket. Good quality material and very well made. Decent price. Sadly and reluctantly returned as just a little bit too short in the body for me.

Perfect for British Autumn

Yes, I recommend this

I ordered in Navy and Pink (it’s quite dusky) and I’ve kept them both! Love the 2 way zip, perfect for autumn rain could be worn under a gilet for extra warmth. I’m a size 18 and ordered large, perfect fit and love the elasticated bottom so you can wear it open or zipped and tucked up to give it an even more on trend look. Looks more expensive than it’s price.

Not worth £40.

No, I don't recommend this

This is wayyyy over priced. Love the cropped look, the secret pocket and the huge hood but it's not worth £40, it's not luxury in the way you'd expect M&S to be it's more high street quality.

Lightweight short jacket for summer

Yes, I recommend this

Bought the pink one which makes a nice change. Looking for something to throw on in a summer shower. It is a short jacket which was a perfect length on me as I usually buy petite (5’2”). Fabric is a little bit creasy/slouchy. Fine for holidays and casual wear.

Lightweight jacket

Yes, I recommend this

I've bought this in pink and have worn it regularly since buying. It's a nice fit and the quality of the fabric and fabrication is high. I find myself needing to pull it down a little at the back as it's only just the right length for me, and I'm 5 foot, so it might be a little too cropped for taller individuals.

Lovely jacket

Yes, I recommend this

What a lovely jacket. I bought this in pink and it fits perfectly. I was a little surprised at the weight as I expected it to be thinner; it is quite a substantial piece. I, therefore, think I might get more wear out if it than first thought.
