Between the waistband and the skirt detail, it makes any woman look like a goddess. The python print is fun and frisky and the hint of neon let’s you embrace the trend without overdoing it.” (Emy, you look like a goddess!)

Nanette Lepore’s Miss Congeniality pea coat is one of our best-selling jackets right now. Maybe it’s the shape, maybe it’s the color. Most likely, it’s the winning combination of the two!
