cute design (girly/feminine), fabulous color (who else has a gulfstream/mint raincoat?!), lightweight (room for a sweatshirt underneath, if need be): just what i wanted. im going to keep my eyes out for this in more colors. .. . definitely recommend!

ps: i know this is columbia, but the material of this 'jacket' is very lightweight and i do not believe it would hold up to very much outdoors aggression. .. it feels like it might rip if i got into a fight with a tree.. . but then again, i do trust columbia to make quality stuff, so maybe the day i have to plow through some brambles, i will be surprised!
