Jacket advice
First time poster here, looking for advice on a jacket that I like, both in terms of how well it fits me, and what others think of it.
My knowledge of fashion and clothes is pretty much as low as you could imagine, my normal go to is tshirt hoodie and chinos, pretty much everywhere (even work) - not because I've put any thought into it, just because when one wears out, I get the same. It's kept me going for years but I'm trying to branch out and explore this scary work of fashion.
So I don't have a jacket like this to compare it to, and I'm trying to work out:
- Firstly, if it fits. This is a small and I think it's about right, but maybe it's too short? Or is that how it's supposed to be? And it feels boxier than what I'd expect, but is that just the thicker material? Should it be more tapered, or is this expected? Do you think the shoulders sit right? (basically, all the questions that I really should know myself already, but don't.)
- Second, would be interested in opinions. Really just focused on the jacket - the "outfit" is just what I was wearing when I went after work to the clothing store so no effort was put in there! Although advice welcome on what you think would pair well with this jacket.

jacket fit looks fine. The outfit is also fine. It's really basic but nothing wrong with that
Yeah basic is not a concern for me yet - I’ll work on that later on down the line. Fitting well, or “decently enough” is what I’m going for at the moment.
for me it looks alright, maybe you feel is boxier precisely for the material but it really does look fine 🤔 maybe you should try to look for jackets that are a bit more loose on the torso so it would be more comfortable and so you could layer it with other things but that is your decision
Thanks both, decided that with two positive votes, I’d buy it 💕
