On the Hunt

... for a new coat. I don't have a good lightweight coat for spring and summer, so I was browsing online today and found a few good options. Unfortunately, one I really liked didn't have my size in any color, but I found two other very strong contenders.

Option 1: Hooded Utility Jacket from Forever 21. This is the first coat. I love the look and I like that even though it's a peach color, it's subtle, so it'll go with a lot. Versatility is always nice, especially when it comes to a jacket. The only really downside I found when looking through the reviews is that it's a little too lightweight, so it might not actually keep me very warm.

Option 2: Lightweight Silk Anorak Jacket from Charlotte Russe. I like that this jacket looks a little thicker (and therefore warmer), so it should protect me a little more from wind. I also like the length, since I'm afraid that the one from Forever 21 might be longer than I want. I'm short, so this will probably hit me in a good spot. The only thing I don't like is the fact there's not a hood. I live in Washington, so rain is kind of a given real Washingtonians don't use umbrellas. I also wish there were some reviews I could read.

Any opinions?

Either way, I'm glad I'm finding affordable options. This style of jack has been on my fashion wish list since September.
