This is the second jacket I have bought in this beautiful color. It's a more dusky blue/teal than the photo indicates. It's so beautiful that I wanted to be sure I would have a replacement when the first one wears out. I LOVE the colors, embroidery and cotton velvet feel of the cloth. The jacket is very well made, and all the edges of embroidery are faced with material the same color as the jacket. Everytime I wear the jacket, usually with jeans, I get tons of compliments from peopleI don'tknow! Most people ask me where I found such a beautiful and unique jacket, so I happily tell them about Novica! I also bought the Mulberry colored jacket. Exquisite color!
