I had not been able to find a light weight jacket for early morning and evening safari' so I hit the thrift shop today. I found this jacket in the right color (had to be tan or kakai (sp) but it looks a bit odd to me. I think it is the silver buttons, what do you think? Please see my blog and let me know if I should change them and if you like the brown ones I laid out. Thanks a bunch.

I would perfer a button that looks like wood. I think that is what I see in your picture, isn't it? Really cute jacket.

Karen, how about some wooden looking buttons?
I agree the silver just don't look right.
Oh, by the way....your lil "T.T" looks like she is almost ready for a camping trip! LOL!
You'll have her done by summer, so we can go camping....farm girl style!
