leather jacket help

maybe normally more of an autumn/winter purchase(?) but I am looking for a leather jacket. Black or brown - haven't decided which would be better, maybe black? I like biker style ones generally, but, my shoulders are broader than my hips so I am worried about looking a bit top heavy a la Sarah Beeny (but I don't have her boobs unfortunately).

I am 35, 5' 3", size 10 or sometimes even an 8 but I am definitely not what you would call skinny. Small boobs, broad-ish shoulders & non-skinny arms, do have a waist.

Don't mind spending maybe up to £300 for the perfect jacket. Want it to do anything from school runs to putting over a dress/skinny jean and nice top for going out in! Needs to look good open and done up too.

Asking the impossible?

Any ideas??!

thanks butter I had seen that one on the JL website, may order it anyway to try but was trying to find something without detail on the shoulders & upper arms due to the broad shoulders issue.

Also forgot to say I sometimes need petite because I seem to have shortish arms so where can I try that may do leather jackets in a petite range??!
