How Appropriate is this? - MBB

Hey Y'all,

Hope everyone had a good Thanksgiving.

I just moved to NYC and have been at MBB for a couple months now. I need a new coat and was wondering how appropriate this one is for a 1st year?

The pockets by the chest and the straps on the shoulder pads worry me a little but wanted to get other peoples input.

I usually have a hard time finding clothes that fit appropriately due to having a small frame and this one seemed to fit nicely when I tried it in store.

Any thoughts whether this is good for a 1st year consultant?

hm, it seems a little bit too casual if you ask me i think ultimately no one will really care, but i think it doesn't it screams professional
