This jacket was perfect for Mardi Gras! It adds a light layer of warmth and due to the sequins can become pretty insulating when zipped up with warm layers underneath. The sequins do snag a bit but not enough to bother me. I was waving my hands around, catching beads for about 3 nights straight in this and didn't have any issues other than the occasional two sequins getting caught on each other. I saw quite a few other girls wearing the rainbow colored version of this.
