I am tempted by the gray and white one as well as the black. Do I really need another sweater? Hmmm.....</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-february-possible-purchase/page/2#post-2170660 Mon, 08 Feb 2021 07:09:06 +0000 Anonymous 2170660@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a very similar sweater that is In the donation box. It just pulled too tightly across the tummy. How does this sweater fit on you? I applaud your replacement if the old one will not last another season. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-february-possible-purchase/page/2#post-2170570 Sun, 07 Feb 2021 18:45:41 +0000 Anonymous 2170570@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Janet - you look so good in clear contrast and stronger colours. &nbsp;I think the black/grey will be a slam dunk for you. I'm still really tempted by it too. &nbsp;I find it's at this time of year that some sweaters that are already several years old start looking pretty ratty and tired. &nbsp;I'm hoping that by ordering the sand/grey one I'll get a little more wear into March and April and not feel like I'm wearing a winter sweater. &nbsp;*shrugs* &nbsp;. Big deep analysis - hahaha. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-february-possible-purchase/page/2#post-2170556 Sun, 07 Feb 2021 17:50:01 +0000 Janet 2170556@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>One-in, one-out is such a good strategy. I think the end of this winter will see me letting go of one or two more sweaters, as the new ones I've bought have replaced them. (There is a temptation to take the old ones to the ranch, but the truth is I should just let them go altogether because I wear hoodies at the ranch.)&nbsp;</p> <p>I can see the sand/grey working so well on you, Lisa! Let me know how it works out! I was curious to see the softer, lower-contrast version on me too, because I always default to dark and black and sometimes do need to lighten up. (Finds below are a fair representation of the colors and styles in my knitwear.)&nbsp;</p> <p>The colorful versions are fun but not my colors. Angie, that LK Bennett looks perfect for you!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-february-possible-purchase#post-2170552 Sun, 07 Feb 2021 17:30:21 +0000 Anonymous 2170552@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So I just ordered the sand/grey one, after planning to order the black/grey. Lol. &nbsp;I actually would like both, but the pattern is too noticeable to have two of the same sweater. &nbsp;$79 Cdn here, which is decent. I removed one sweater from my wardrobe yesterday, so one-in, one-out ftw! &nbsp;I tried to be mindful of what made the tossed sweater such a wardrobe hit for me, thus choosing the sand/grey version. Can't wait to get it!</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-february-possible-purchase#post-2170527 Sun, 07 Feb 2021 16:25:11 +0000 Anonymous 2170527@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks nice, but I think I'll like the black and grey one more! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-february-possible-purchase#post-2170476 Sun, 07 Feb 2021 07:17:34 +0000 Bijou 2170476@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This sweater is beautiful on you, what a great find.

I love the geometric modern argyle pattern and am very attracted to the pink and orange! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-february-possible-purchase#post-2170460 Sun, 07 Feb 2021 00:06:17 +0000 Style Fan 2170460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This looks so good on you, Janet.&nbsp; I think the black one will be great too.&nbsp; It is argyle with an edge. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-february-possible-purchase#post-2170454 Sat, 06 Feb 2021 21:48:34 +0000 Brooklyn 2170454@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It looks great. I love the pattern too. It made me look at the find!</p> <p>I don’t mean to be the voice of doom but I’d be a little concerned about the amount of acrylic in it. In my experience acrylic doesn’t wear well. But YMMV of course. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-february-possible-purchase#post-2170447 Sat, 06 Feb 2021 20:51:02 +0000 Echo 2170447@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I absolutely love this modern take on argyle, and I think the sweater looks fab on you. I also think the darker colourway might flatter more; I look forward to seeing that one when it arrives! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-february-possible-purchase#post-2170439 Sat, 06 Feb 2021 19:14:21 +0000 Angie 2170439@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Here are all the colours of yours:&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-february-possible-purchase#post-2170438 Sat, 06 Feb 2021 19:13:45 +0000 Angie 2170438@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER</p> <p>I love it on you, <b>Janet</b>!

Sadly, I’m in the first group. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-february-possible-purchase#post-2170418 Sat, 06 Feb 2021 16:35:01 +0000 LaPed 2170418@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, that is pretty! And goes nicely with the decor (gorgeous wall color!!).</p> <p>Slightly OT, but I’ve noticed that almost everything I’ve tried on the past few months has run either slightly or very oversized. I have a theory that there’s some pandemic related size inflation going on. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-february-possible-purchase#post-2170417 Sat, 06 Feb 2021 16:27:55 +0000 slim cat 2170417@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks lovely - soft grey is pretty on you. I like the washed jeans and fun booties with sweater - perfect look! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-february-possible-purchase#post-2170411 Sat, 06 Feb 2021 16:17:40 +0000 Janet 2170411@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>And yes, it is definitely generous in size! I think it’s meant to be slouchy and slightly oversized. I’m glad the body isn’t any longer. I hate too-short sleeves so the sleeve length doesn’t bother me at all. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-february-possible-purchase#post-2170409 Sat, 06 Feb 2021 16:16:22 +0000 Janet 2170409@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Lisa, this is the only one that arrived so far — I’m encouraged by this one! My immediate attraction was to the black one, so I’m anxious to see how it looks when it arrives.</p> <p>I stay away from beige and washed out tones, but I think the cool gray in this version makes it work for me (although I’m noticing lately that light gray tends to bring out the gray in my hair...). I’ll post the black one when it gets here! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-february-possible-purchase#post-2170405 Sat, 06 Feb 2021 16:11:04 +0000 Anonymous 2170405@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That looks like a very generous S too - sleeves are even long . I’m off to the Canadian site to see if it’s avail here . I’m down for the pink / orange , or the blk / grey myself . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-february-possible-purchase#post-2170404 Sat, 06 Feb 2021 16:09:20 +0000 Anonymous 2170404@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love it . I’d wear this sweater any day ! I think the black / grey would be great on you though - you didn’t like it as much ? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-february-possible-purchase#post-2170400 Sat, 06 Feb 2021 15:54:10 +0000 Christina F. 2170400@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have had my eye on this too! I don’t like the other colorways - I basically feel the same way about argyle as you. I’ve been off grey but it may be okay in this context. Please report back! ETA - I cross posted with your report :p I ordered the one from the post, thanks! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-february-possible-purchase#post-2170399 Sat, 06 Feb 2021 15:53:39 +0000 Janet 2170399@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, this is record time. I ordered it two days ago, and the first one arrived just now! I threw it on with some old faded jeans and a pair of boots. I do not have a scrap of makeup on so I think the colors would look better on me once I at least put on tinted moisturizer and a hint of blush and mascara. But I like the fit and style very much. It feels comfortable too — so far no itchiness is apparent, and it’s a good weight for me, neither too heavy nor too light.</p> <p>ETA: for anyone considering this sweater, this is a size S on 5’7” 155 lb me. Depending on what fit you are after, you may want to size down. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-february-possible-purchase#post-2170398 Sat, 06 Feb 2021 15:49:36 +0000 Tanya 2170398@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is a lovely sweater and I can totally see it fitting your style.&nbsp; I hope it works out! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-february-possible-purchase#post-2170395 Sat, 06 Feb 2021 15:45:03 +0000 nuancedream 2170395@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>&nbsp;I have my eye on the same sweater in pink and orange, Janet. I think the black and gray will look terrific on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/a-february-possible-purchase#post-2170392 Sat, 06 Feb 2021 15:36:48 +0000 Janet 2170392@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, all! I’m quite curious and hope it works. I’ve tried other stylized argyles in the past that somehow didn’t work for me (fit issues, too long, etc). It would be nice to have a less traditional version. </p>
