A fitted leather jacket?

Ok, so I'm a typical pear shape. 5'8 size 10. I suit Blazers however I would dearly love a leather jacket but so far I haven't found anything flattering enough to buy. Any recommendations?

I bought a brilliant faux leather jacket in midnight blue from M&S in the summer which is fitted and very flattering on. It has stretch sleeves which look really good. They have this vaguely similar one currently in stock but I haven't seen it in real life, although I fancy the khaki one myself: www.marksandspencer.com/faux-leather-biker-jacket-with-stormwear/p/p22430517?prevPage=srp#bvHeader

Brampton London so some lovely ones, I have my heart set on a Lily in dark brown.

I'm currently wondering whether the Lilly in navy blue or oxblood red would be the best choice?

Try a size down, it's how All Saints recommend you buy a leather jacket anyway.

Funnily enough mrslebon I once owned a pretty much identical black faux leather jacket (apart from the second zip) that I adored and used it until I completely wore it out (it got worn out at the sleeves/cuffs as I used to push them up) and if I recall I picked it up from Primark for around £20 ...
Just quite surprised at the price difference.
