The North Face Tempest Down Jacket - Women's
Sexy jacket, but with flaws.

This jacket is very appealing. It has the ribbed lining on the bottom to keep the cold and wind out and it has a very flattering hood. Sexy jacket! Also, the arm length is very nice for taller people. However, if you take notice, this jacket is a sporty and petite fit. I got the large and it still didn't fit right, a little on the small side. It has vents under the armpits, even with those zipped open, I still felt the armpits were tight. When I was driving especially I could feel how tight the armpits were. I prefer comfort over appeal any day. If you're petite, then you can handle this jacket. Otherwise, don't let the sexy/sporty look fool you. ;o)
