As we head into the holidays, it's time to start thinking about Christmas shopping, if you haven't already! I've got about half of my shopping done this year and am waiting for Black Friday to see what kinds of deals I can grab online. Then I'll finish up my shopping well before December 25th because I'm so excited about Christmas this year! I've partnered with Mia Melon to share one of their gorgeous jackets with you, because they'd make the perfect gift this year. Plus, I've got one to give away to a lucky reader!
Mia Melon Aspen Rain Jacket
As we head into the holidays, I was hoping to find a dressy jacket that would also protect me from the weather. In Minnesota, we're more likely to get snow than rain the next few months, but I essentially just want to be protected as I run from my vehicle into a holiday event. As soon as I saw the Aspen Rain Jacket (especially the gorgeous oxblood red color!) I knew it was the perfect option. It's the perfect color for Thanksgiving and Christmas, and it's one of Mia Melon's dressier options so it's great for parties.
Aspen Specs
The Aspen is made with soft cotton herringbone and is available in four gorgeous colors, all perfect for the fall and spring. It's designed with innovative fabric technology that is both waterproof and windproof, so it's great for all kinds of weather mother nature decides to throw at me this year. This style also features princess seams on both the front and back. I think the curved seams make the jacket look dressy, whether I'm wearing it with jeans or a holiday dress. The Aspen also has a hidden zipper front closure with faux leather pull tab.
Inside the Jacket
The pockets are lined with a cozy micro fleece, so I tuck my hands in for warmth when I'm spending more than a couple minutes outside. The removable tie belt adds a waistline to this jacket, and also gives it a flattering fit. The hood is also lined with micro fleece and it's the perfect size. Some hoods make me feel like I don't have any peripheral vision, but with the Aspen I don't have that problem.
This jacket is rated for 32°F - 64°F, which makes it perfect for anyone living in a mild winter climate. That being said, I've worn it when we've had days colder than 32°F temps, and it has kept me comfortable for short periods of time. Since it's a dressier jacket and not really meant for trekking in the woods, I think it's still a great option for holiday events, even in cold weather. I absolutely love this jacket, especially the color, and would love to have it in every color Mia Melon offers! It also comes in Forrest Green, Deep Teal, and Black.
I know I would love to receive this Aspen Jacket as a gift at Christmas time, and I think it would make the perfect offering for anyone on your shopping list! You can see all of Mia Melon's beautiful jackets on their website. Mia Melon has generously offered to give one of our readers an Aspen Jacket this holiday season!
Disclosure: I received this jacket from Mia Melon to provide an honest review. All opinions are my own.

Wow! All of their jackets are really stunning! It makes picking a favorite SO hard! I love the look of the asymmetrical zipper though so Aspen is gorgeous to me! You have great taste! A close second would be the Lexi 3 due to the nice high collar! It looks so snuggly warm!
