I love this coat. But now, as you can see from the pictures (please excuse my pjs lol), it's now a little tight. Has both zipper & snaps (both hidden) pockets & faux leather detail. Bottom had a slight "skirted" shape, I guess I would call it. Whatever it's called, it's just one of the many things that makes this coat extra cute. Looks great with black leggings & tall black boots! Color, I would say, is a heathered black. It is black. But it also has a lighter speck to the fabric. You can see it in the pictures. This coat has been worn, but it still has lots of life & love to give!
