Pack Away Havana Leaf Print Anorak

Just what I was looking for.

A nice jacket which is a decent length & a nice cheerful print.Be aware though, it is described as lined,which is one reason I chose this over the other patterns, but only the hood is lined, the body of the coat has taped seams. Bit misleading with that M&S! It is sold as a packaway jacket but this involves complicated origami to fold it inside one of its own pockets. Just about impossible anyway & definitely can't be done on the move or without a flat surface. The coat is on the expensive side for what it is & a separate bag to pack it in would be a welcome addition for the price.

I bought several of a similar style last year and they were lovely. These new ones have thinner material. I shall keep the navy Hawaiian print one, but the fuchsia I also ordered is going back. I tried it on over dark clothes and you could see what I was wearing underneath. The nylon material must be very thin. I do wish M&S would stick to making good quality items and not reducing the quality to sell cheaper goods.

I like the light weight and pattern of this jacket but what I can't stand is the position of the waist band.When I did the zip up the waistband was just under my bust,it looked ridiculous.I can't wear that.M&S must use some strangely proportioned people as models!
