I have a couple of faux leather jackets and I love them for autumn as you can layer tees underneath them, add boots and then pile on the scarves/snoods! I was kindly allowed to pick a jacket from the Warehouse website, it was so difficult to pick but I chose a gorgeous black faux leather jacket!
I have the *Warehouse Rib Sleeve Biker Jacket (£65) which I received in a UK size 8. I paired the jacket with my Primark burnt orange scarf, Topshop jeans, Monki top and Newlook boots. If you follow me on Instagram (@heathernixon4) then you would have already seen this jacket - I love it!
I love the detailing, the ribbed section on the top of the arms is such a nice touch, it makes it look more interesting and expensive, in my opinion. I also like the silver hardware and I feel like the jacket will go with so many outfits, from jeans and a jumper to dresses or with shorts and tights!
The fit of the jacket on the body is perfect, the arms are a little long but I am petite so I expect this with all jackets and the arms are a bit tight with a jumper underneath, although with t-shirts the jacket fits really well. If you did want to wear sweaters/thick jumpers underneath this jacket then I would definitely recommend sizing up. The jacket feels really well made and durable, I think it will last a long time and even though it is faux leather it doesn't look like it!
Overall, I am really happy with the jacket - I love the design and the look of the jacket. It will be a much needed staple in my wardrobe for autumn! The only negative point is that I can't really wear thick jumpers underneath as the arms are a bit tight but layered with tees, scarves and boots it is gorgeous! I actually saw a photo of Alexa Chung wearing a really similar looking jacket on the Now Seen Official website/social media. Overall rating: ★★★★☆, 4/5.
What do you think of this Warehouse jacket? What are your autumn fashion staples?
