If any of you own the elbow sleeved swing top in Pecan (A306339) offered earlier this year, the Caramel jacket and WK T Neck are a virtual spot on match with this color. The teeniest of tiny variation is due to the different fabric composition. Placed together, they all match beautifully. 

 

This jacket is stunning. It is rich with great depth of color, more so in person and as @gardensla has often said, "looks monied."

 

I purchased sz 8. I can wear a 6 also. But with only an approx inch difference in sizing, I opted for my larger size this time to gracefully allow layering. This is a substantial garment. It has heft. It is much heavier weight wise than the moto offered almost two years ago. The WK portion is much thicker and heavier than the moto too. I was quite toasty, and fashionable wearing my other colors last year. That is until the weather dictated a longer coat against the elements. I do have to cuff the sleeve. That hasn't been a problem and looks perfectly fine.

 

Now I'm coveting the Magenta. Enablers, please...

Glad everyone loves the jacket. I have one coming for my mom in magenta. Hope it arrives in good order.

@rochelleS Girl, go for it!  Mine arrived today and I am like a little kid on Christmas morning.  The color is jaw dropping!  I had a very busy day but I'm thinking I should go somewhere just to show it off!  I guess I could wait until tomorrow...

I love your enthusiasm @anniebethsmom. It's wonderful to hear how much you love your Magenta jacket! Do you have any other colors? I have the Wine from last year and Alabaster too. Plus the Blackberry Moto from nearly two yrs ago. See my hesitation?  But I'd truly like to own this color. It is sooo different. Not the usual color or style you'd see oUT on the street, eh.

 

Did you see the trench coats? Whoa!!!

@rochelleS I have the black and alabaster from last year and I've worn them a million times! I love the fact that I get three seasons of wear out of these little gems. I have the motto in navy which I adore especially when I'm feeling like giving the youngsters a run for their money fashion-wise. I love how Louis paired the magenta with the forest green but I will definitely pair it with grey, navy, black, and alabaster.  I just feel so chic in this jacket, even if I'm just in jeans!  Totally elevates any outfit chosen.  Get yours before they are gone, gone, gone!

If magenta is a good color on you, get it! I think it is stunning. Just not a good color for me. I know the caramel would be good for me, but I haven’t ordered it yet.
