Questions about this piece
What does peplum mean on a jacket?
It means the jacket flares out below the waist instead of hanging straight down. The fabric is drawn in at the narrowest point and cut wider below it, so the shape nips in and then releases over the hip. That is why a peplum defines a waist on almost anyone, and why where that cinch sits matters more than the size you take. On this one the waist is gathered with elastic rather than a stitched seam, so it finds your waist instead of asking you to match a fixed one.
What goes with a brown leather jacket?
Brown is the warmer of the two classic leather colors, so it sits easily beside cream, camel, olive and denim, and it takes more thought next to true black than a black jacket would. Rather than matching it exactly, repeat the brown somewhere small, a boot or a belt, and let the rest of the outfit stay off that note. A dark brown like this one is deep enough to wear out at night without reading casual.
Is this jacket lined, and what are the pockets like?
It is fully lined, which is the first thing you notice with faux leather, because an unlined one grabs at your arms going on over a short sleeve and this one slides. The front zips the whole way up to a collar, so you can shut it against wind or leave it open and let the peplum do the shaping. There are flap pockets on the front. It comes in the one color, dark brown, in XS through L.
