Either pewter or bronze is a casual metal to me. They are good looking buttons. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buttons-1#post-2179340 Mon, 15 Mar 2021 12:54:20 +0000 unfrumped 2179340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ha! Just my screen, then. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buttons-1#post-2179336 Mon, 15 Mar 2021 12:46:04 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2179336@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Unfrumped, how odd that they look bronze! They are actually a pewter/dark silver color. Thanks for the comment! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buttons-1#post-2179329 Mon, 15 Mar 2021 12:00:30 +0000 unfrumped 2179329@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Don’t see any problematic messages with “ usual “ buttons. Those look bronze, though— I like bronze and similar toned- down metals, and have handbags with warm dark- toned metals because cooler tones were harder to find, but since my color palette has gravitated to cooler colors and silver jewelry, I have tried to focus on pewters and such. But, I also don’t think it’s horrors to mix metals.<br /> I’m going into such details because good metal coat buttons can be pricey (because are usually larger , especially if lots of buttons- sleeves, detailing) even though much cheaper than a new coat, so you want to really like the coat and be thinking about changes that not only fit the essence of the coat but also make it work better with your current wardrobe.<br /> I recently changed buttons on a blazer from silver , though some kind of faux metal, to navy plastic because I avoided wearing shiny metal buttons ( the ones you’ve shown are not shiny- this is just my example) and could not find just the right kind of dark real metal in the sizes needed, plus was not 100% sure yet, in pandemic, how much I would wear it.<br /> But, it’s a good economical way to change up a garment otherwise. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buttons-1#post-2179317 Mon, 15 Mar 2021 09:50:06 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2179317@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lol—yes, I got the coat in 8th grade, so it was the iron era. Hahaha </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buttons-1#post-2179314 Mon, 15 Mar 2021 09:42:02 +0000 Synne 2179314@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That looks like neo-viking iron age buttons, is that what you mean? Haha, just kidding FashIntern! Can anyone be offended by buttons? Sorry, I am on a coffee-high this morning (off the caffeine wagon again!). Cute buttons and probably cute coat! Post pics later! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/buttons-1#post-2179310 Mon, 15 Mar 2021 09:21:05 +0000 Stagiaire Fash 2179310@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I’m changing out the buttons on my blue wool coat—it’s missing some, and I don’t have enough replacements. I’m thinking of changing the look and going with the metal ones. Does that make sense? In the back of my head I’m afraid of unintentionally some look that has a meaning attached to it that I don’t know about. </p>
