A cropped faux fur jacket with a soft round neckline and no lapel to break up the shoulder. The pile is dense and sits on a light backing, so the jacket holds a rounded shape across the shoulder instead of collapsing onto the arm. It is worn open at the front and stops at the top of the hip, which leaves the waistline of whatever is underneath on show.

The sleeves run full to the wrist and narrow a little at the end so they clear a shirt cuff. Because it is short, it layers over a tee and jeans as readily as it does over something dressier in the evening, and it never fights a high-waisted trouser the way a longer coat will. The pale sand color sits warmer than a true white and stays quiet next to denim, which is where most people will wear it.
