K/R/E: Another Pink Jacket Update - Smaller Size

I posted pictures of this jacket here:

This is a size smaller. I really like it. It matches a scarf my SIL knit for me several years ago that I never wore. My husband said it looked cowboy. My friend said I should keep looking.

What do you think?

Sweet, Janet. It's still too big. But I LOVE the colour and vibe for you. Can you size down again?

This one is better, but I tend to agree with Angie. Are you wearing your typical layers underneath?

Angie, thank you. Yes, I can size down. I guess it's *really* oversized, because this is supposed to fit a 6-8. The smaller size that fits a 2-4 is available. I'll give it a try, even though it seems preposterous to think that size would fit me.

Donna, I'm wearing a long sleeve tee. The sherpa lining is pretty thick, like a fleece jacket. If it were really cold, like the dead of winter, I'd probably just wear a warmer jacket, like down.

Is this something that is likely to shrink? I am wondering if the next size down might be too fitted. . .but you'll never know unless you try. On the other hand, doesn't corduroy sometimes loosen up?

I had to size down TWICE on this TopShop dress which normally would not have occurred to me but I was in the store and a 0 was in stock.

It's great to have Angie give feedback, isn't it?

Donna, it is indeed wonderful having Angie give her expert opinion. If you had to size down twice on your Topshop dress, I guess it isn't quite so preposterous that I would have to size down twice, also. BTW, I think the jacket has been preshrunk, and that's why it is so wrinkled.
