Miuccia Jacket Review

Igigi sent me the Miuccia jacket from their plus size separates collection. This multi-fabric jacket combines a comfortable knit black on arms and back with a classic wool inset in front. I loved the fit of this jacket which I decided to wear with jeans (and a bright green cotton cami) instead of dress pants like it is styled on the website. The jacket really does work for casual or career.
Wooden doors of fort.
Jeff and I went to one of the local forts on the long weekend — we made a day of it — short drive, sight-seeing, and lunch. It was a beautiful day. For the most part, I found the jacket warm enough on its own (I had a cami underneath).


Here is a close up of the large buttons, the wool with pink thread and a slight sparkle (love), and the mud on my jeans from when I fell. That’s right, total face plant. Wish I had it on video. I was looking up at the black partially open shutter while walking on soft ground in two inch boots and fell into a soft spot. Luckily it was grassy and soft. Also lucky I was not the one carrying the camera.

We went through a short tunnel to the waterfront and it was a tad cooler there so I had to close up the collar around my neck.

I love the overall look and feel of this jacket. I found the collar to be a bit bulky when we sat down to lunch and had to keep pressing it out of the way. With the cami on underneath I probably could have opened it but did not think of it at the time. I would not want to wear more than a cami under this jacket, even though the wool is a small section it is warm — but I was not uncomfortable; I could not wear this if it was a full wool jacket.
Like everything else I have from Igigi, this jacket is well made. The Miuccia jacket is available in sizes 12 to 30 for $108 and Igigi ships internationally.

      You know, I thought it would me too as I am a bit sensitive around neck area but it did not. It is actually quite soft. Generally I get red and itchy with wool but did not have this reaction.

Stop Biting the Tail You’re Chasing

Tolerance
"No matter in what situations we find ourselves, when we don’t have so many opinions and preferences we naturally experience more peace of mind. We feel more agreeable, more comfortable, and more able to fit in with others. When we are more tolerant, not only do our minds’ stability and experience of meditation improve, but the conduct of our body, speech, and mind also improves because we stop being so reactive."
