My boss was wearing a knit pink jacket and I thought it looked comfy and quirky. I thought "I can make that!" Then I went looking for pink cotton knit and found this pique. I lined it with this silk jersey I bought from Mood. It is hideous, really. It doesn't go with the pink at all, but I thought it would feel nice, and it does.
I am a bit disappointed with this jacket. The shoulders are too big, right??? And what is with all the sleeve-head volume? I don't see it on the model. She doesn't looked like she walked out of 7th grade home ec class in 1970 wearing her completed class project. Why do I? Maybe I don't know how to ease in the sleeve properly.
Look, from behind the shoulders are huge. It fits across the bust and waist. I would like this a lot if it weren't for the dang poofy 70s sleeves. <<mad>>
