Great jacket! I don't think it would have even occurred to me to shorten a dress that way!

Looks really pretty on you and with the blouse that you also are reviewing. It looks like a versatile outfit that could be worn so many different places.

Your jacket a so nice! Love the fit and color of fabric. Thanks for the work on the sleeve length. A 3/4 sleeve is hard to get the length just right to avoid catching iton any myriad to items.
