ETA pic: Anyone have this Splendid thermal hoodie?

Anonymous

I mentioned this in the Amazon prime thread, but I've been eyeing this hoodie for months and it's included in the prime sale. (Forgive me, I've still not figured out how to add finds from my tablet, which is all I ever use). It doesn't look super heavy, and it fits a casual lifestyle. I have broad shoulders and often go up a size in jackets for that reason.

Does anyone have it or tried it? Is it TTS, or should I go up to accommodate my shoulders? I'm taller, would it be too short in back? I guess it could be one more thing I try and return if it's not right. Just soooo tired of doing that.

Here's a pic of the "plum" in the larger size for viva and aviamariah

hahaha! It's sitting in my cart now, and I can justify this for air travel but it's not really my style (too drapey) and I don't really need it. But it looks SO CUTE.

As for sizing, comments suggest it's TTS and long. If I were you I would not size up.

I have it sitting in my cart too. FOMO.

It's right up my alley because it's warm & soft. Plus it's on super sale in bright pink which is my happy color.

AviaMariah - I also have it in my cart in pink. The sale puts it less than half price. Still waiting to see if anyone has it. But may just pull the trigger to try it. And knowing me, I'll order two sizes to see which I like better.

Viva - I've passed along a few jackets to my daughter when I order them on the cusp of being too small, and I had a epiphany that I needed to start ordering larger in jackets and tops so they don't feel too tight through my arms and shoulders. But with this style, often the larger size is too voluminous to be flattering.

Ok. I did it. I ordered a black in the smaller size and pink in the larger size. I had debated this a couple times when splendid had a 30% off sale too. And if it doesn't work, I'll know in time to react accordingly during NAS perusals.

Black would be good in my travel capsule too Viva. Pink is kind of fun, but depends on the shade if I like it best on me.

AviaMariah, I think we are somewhat similar in coloring, but think you may have more pink undertones to my yellow undertones? And not for nothing, I'm still coveting that gray sweater you have from your gray and white post a couple months ago.

As an aside, it irks me to have the same item in the same color at different prices depending on the size. I'm pretty sure it's based on their inventory position, but still very annoying to me.

I know what you mean about the variable price points, delurked. I have to admit, I tend to like this weird practice when it favors me, and complain when it doesn't. So self-centered.

Good luck with the purchase! I have taken mine out of the cart. AviaMariah was right: FOMO and nothing else. I had to just get over it.

I may not be an amazon, but sometimes I feel like it. I think the pricing often favors the petite or smaller sizes. I've been eyeing it so long, I knew the only way to get over it was to try it on. If it's worthy, I'll take a pic. Otherwise, I'll let you know how smart you were to pass it up.

This color is called plum. I needed the larger size.
I'm keeping it. Returning the black. I couldn't have gone smaller in the arms.

Thanks for posting this picture - it looks fantastic on you, delurked. great size, color, and shape (and another great hair day, I see!). But you are right, not quite the vibe for me. Phew - one more thing I don't have to buy. haha!
