And I'm skinny!  Size up if you want the jacket.  It is very cute and well made.  My only issue is when I wear long sleeves. I have only put on twice in my house but may wait until it gets warmer and I need something to go over bare arms.  If you are young with no belly you can zip it.  Even though I am small, I've had three kids and so there is a bit of a pooch and the jacket is snug.  I wanted the fitted style but not something that was next to my skin tight!
