J.Crew Petite Majesty Peacoat Review

I've always loved J.Crew clothing from afar, but never bought anything as they are fairly pricey and not cheap to ship to Canada. When J.Crew launched in Canada though, I was uber excited but they did not sell Crewcuts or petite sizing in-store. Disappointing, but the company did launch a Canadian site with flat-rate shipping for $9.95.

So while perusing the sale section one night I splurged and bought this Majesty Peacoat (sz 0P), regularly $298, on sale for $159 + an extra 30% off, making it 129.38 after shipping and taxes. It was such a good deal, I really couldn't turn it down!

The coat arrived packaged nicely with hanger and buttons all wrapped up. It was quick and easy with no troubles. I was quite happy with the experience.

70% wool and cozy warm for those somewhat chilly Canadian days (I managed it to squeeze in some wear before the warmer days arrived). The sleeve length was perfect (I've bought a petite trench from Banana Republic and had to alter the sleeves by about 2-3 inches) and the overall fit nice and snug, but roomy enough for a sweater. This is probably the best coat I've ever owned in terms of quality and fit. I will definitely be looking to J.Crew for future outerwear!
