I usually wear L, but this made me look like I was 6 months pregnant. There was no shape and I think a medium would have been better. Didn’t wear it out 

Wish I could have worn more, but Texas weather didn’t cooperate. Think I could have sized down.

Cute vest that runs a tiny bit big. Great pockets.

This is a very cozy vest. I followed advice of other reviewers and sized down, planning to wear it unzipped. There is a lot of shearling fabric, but not bad if you wear unzipped 

FIT: I am usually a medium in Lauren Ralph Lauren items, but after reading the reviews, I ordered the small. I feel I made the right choice, as it is true that if you zip up the vest, there is some added bulk around the mid-section. Note, I could *just* zip it; it was a tad snug- doable. Still, I didn't think it looked as good zipped, so ended up wearing it open which resulted in a relaxed, chic vibe...so much the better!
STYLING: I wore this piece multiple times: 
1. Obviously, it was right on trend for wearing with jeans around the mountain lodge and to town (we were in Blowing Rock, NC) for shopping and lunch on a chilly 50 degree afternoon. Although the vest is faux shearling, it is surprisingly warm.
2. I also ended up wearing it over a geometric print 3/4 sleeve dress (burgundy, cream and black colors) with black tights and and booties to a backyard engagement party (also 50-60 degrees) and got even more compliments! Nice to have the zip pockets to keep my phone in also. 
Overall: The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars or consider buying it was because I feel I would never wear the small zipped and if I went up a size to medium just so I could zip it comfortably then the added bulk would be an issue. All that being said, that is why this was a winner of a RENTAL! It looked great, garnered compliments, but at the end of the day I could send it back. Gotta love that! And... I would rent it again!

This vest isn't meant to be fitted. The medium worked well for me and I am curvy in the hips and mid section. I paired it with the Viera Sweater and the Joe's Jeans Charlie High Rise Skinny Jeans and loved the entire outfit!  I wore it on a few different occasions. 

This was a great rent for everyday use. The vest is very warm so great for use on cold days. The folds of the fur lining are form flattering so even though the vest itself does not have a super feminine shape, the folds create a feminine shape. 

Loved how warm and comfy this vest was! Great neutral to go with anything. Only negative was that it's a little extra puffy through the mid section.

Warm than I thought it would be, perfect for winter

I wore this to a kids' birthday party. It is casual and comfortable but with some added flare. I'm usually a M and easily wore the S, so size down. I could still zip it closed but wore it open. 

The color is great and is supper cozy! I wear it many times, also with a black dress! Was perfect for the start of the winter in SF

I could fit a Joey in the extra fabric around the belly! Very soft, pliable, and comfortable... but I have plenty of hoodie sweatshirts for that. I was looking for a cute piece of outerwear that also gave some style and this isn't really doing the trick. If I DID want to rent again, I would go down from an M to a S

Fit is true to size. It is very comfortable and warm!
