I was inspired to do this refashion after seeing something similar at Free People. Their version cost $120. Mine only cost $7 with thrift store finds.
I chopped off the sleeves and hoodie of the sweatshirt. Then I cut off the sleeves of the jacket.
I sewed the sweatshirt sleeves to the jacket armhole.
I opened the collar, stuck the hoodie between the top and bottom of the collar, then sewed the collar closed.
I found this jacket to be surprisingly warm thanks to the sweatshirt sleeves and hoodie. I love the tomboy edginess of this jacket. For a step by step tutorial on how to refashion a jean jacket with sweatshirt sleeves and hoodie, check out my blog www.trevorlovesmommy.com
