The photo appears blue, but the actual color is a standard navy. It's only been used two or three times, so it's in very good condition. As a marker, a bird charm is attached to the left pocket zipper (photo 3). This item, as is typical of Tommy products, has long sleeves. The cuffs have holes for your thumbs. There is a small fraying around that area. (See photo) The waist has a slightly cinched design, which makes the silhouette look good. The inside appears bright red in the photo, but it's actually a slightly more subdued, darker red. I bought this to match my daughter, but she says it's too slim to wear over her uniform, so would anyone like it?
