Awhile back , there was a post (click here) with {great} product reviews of this absolutely lovely jacket. Although I have not seen this jacket in person, I thought it was truly gorgeous in all the photos.

I recently ran across a great blog, the SCOOP, that had a fabulous post (click here) about this particular jacket. Essentially, one of the blog author's sister created her very own Astrid jacket (as shown in the images below).
Can you believe that this jacket was created just "using strips of satin, ... made all the flowers by hand and sewed them onto a $35 jacket from Old Navy." How absolutely creative... just ingenious! :)

I have to add, that between the two jackets, I prefer the DIY one. It is just so pretty on her (and she is gorgeous too)!!!
