Of course I haven't had an opportunity to wear it since it's now warm here and my belly is big. If you like the style, go for it! It's definitely unique. Thanks for the comment. :)Amanda S.https://www.blogger.com/profile/05591040347020137293noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3357280502639180937.post-58503965612917034582010-05-08T16:06:00.204-05:002010-05-08T16:06:00.204-05:00Love this jacket in the pattern and it's cute ...Love this jacket in the pattern and it's cute on too!
