Nice style, but not a raincoat.

I read the reviews about this product and found that people loved it. When it arrived, I loved it too! The fit was great, the style was cute. It decided not to rain for a while so I didn't get to try it out until over a month after I purchased it. It was raining decently hard and after a few minutes I was wet on the shoulders. I dried it off afterwards and checked on it a few days later to find that there were specks of mold on the sleeves. Not only did it not protect me from the rain, it also got moldy! The style is lovely, but if it cannot be worn in any amount of rain, the cuteness factor disappears instantly. I would have been dryer wearing cotton because at least the cotton would absorb some of the water instead of going straight through. Would have returned but by the time I got to try it the return period had ended. For $20 more get a Marmot or North Face that might not look as cute but at least it will work.
