Yes, much less bulky. I do plan to wear it with jeans. It wouldn't be dressed up, but dressed down instead.</p> <p>Jill, thanks! Yes, I didn't care for the gold buttons at all.

I love pinks with blue denim. It looks like you could still roll up the sleeves but with less bulk.

I'll post a WIW, but it's still really hot here.</p> <p>Jenni, thanks! We'll see if I can win you over. It's going to be worn in lieu of a fleece or sweatshirt. Very casual. At least that's what I'm thinking now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pink-jacket-altered#post-1839317 Thu, 24 Aug 2017 19:24:24 +0000 Jenni NZ 1839317@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very clever to do it so well yourself!

Interesting question. Yes, I do like grey, I just had a hankering for some pink. I plan to wear this jacket dressed down, with jeans, boots, and tees. BTW, I ordered some new charcoal grey tees. Maybe it's more of a winter preference?</p> <p>Mirjana, thank you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pink-jacket-altered#post-1839304 Thu, 24 Aug 2017 19:09:57 +0000 Mirjana 1839304@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Good job jacket is very nice on you, lovely color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/pink-jacket-altered#post-1839300 Thu, 24 Aug 2017 19:05:43 +0000 Angie 1839300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>VERY nice.

The cost was about $4 for thread and new buttons. I think it turned out about as well as possible, considering the buttonholes were cut. </p>
