The green colour is gorgeous and would be sensational on you. But I, too, would worry about that dropped shoulder. It can really get sloppy. But then, again, the devil is in the details -- so it might be a question of ordering and trying on and seeing how this <b>particular</b> cut works.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardigan-shopping---feedback-please#post-2194623 Wed, 12 May 2021 16:20:30 +0000 Kate 2194623@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>L’Envers Orca.

I like the fun of contrast buttons &amp; the green sweater catches my eye, but that’s me—might not be you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardigan-shopping---feedback-please#post-2194530 Wed, 12 May 2021 12:27:06 +0000 Style Fan 2194530@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks so much for all your feedback!&nbsp; So much to think about.&nbsp; I will look back more carefully at what each one of you has said.&nbsp; I do appreciate it.<br />The two Tradlands cardigans are not currently available.&nbsp; I am an XS or S, so that means waiting a while.&nbsp; I am now thinking more about #4. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardigan-shopping---feedback-please#post-2194518 Wed, 12 May 2021 11:52:51 +0000 Anonymous 2194518@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the shape of 3, but agree about the buttons.

I love the green cardigan colour, if it were me, I would try the green cardigan but size down (I am generally between an S and XS - so with this style, I would chose XS). Taking the volume out will help with the oversized feel of the dropped shoulder. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardigan-shopping---feedback-please#post-2194488 Wed, 12 May 2021 09:36:00 +0000 Jenni NZ 2194488@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Coming back to say, I agree with Firecracker that you would look great in the darker Terra colour. And I do still like those buttons better.<br /> This is disagreeing with Angie though, yikes! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardigan-shopping---feedback-please#post-2194415 Wed, 12 May 2021 01:50:25 +0000 Anonymous 2194415@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the Tradelands best because it is cotton and longer. I do not like dropped sleeves and the buttons as much. If you and your wardrobe are warm, all the colors might work. If cool, the clover color would be best. Good luck. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardigan-shopping---feedback-please#post-2194414 Wed, 12 May 2021 01:38:46 +0000 Jaime 2194414@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm, I like the green color but the cut of the L'envers better. And those colors are great also. If you could only try one #3 makes sense. Can you try them both on? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardigan-shopping---feedback-please#post-2194407 Wed, 12 May 2021 00:51:10 +0000 rachylou 2194407@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I lean same as Angie. I like you in the drop-shoulder sweater you have... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardigan-shopping---feedback-please#post-2194398 Tue, 11 May 2021 23:40:36 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2194398@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><div>Well, I find the green hard to pass up! What a lovely shade. But my first pick was the L'Envers in Terra for you. I like the color, as it seems a "red" that would be lovely on you, and I like that it has matching buttons. That detail adds versatility and longevity, which seem key to your style. (i.e., the idea that you pick pieces that will stand the test of time.) Maybe you could use two??</div><div>I think you look good in your cream cardigan, so I'm not convinced that a dropped shoulder is a less than optimal look on you. ;)<br /></div> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardigan-shopping---feedback-please#post-2194397 Tue, 11 May 2021 23:35:31 +0000 LaPed 2194397@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They're all gorgeous and I don't think there's a wrong choice in the bunch!</p> <p>I tried the Shelter Cardigan last fall and did not find it to be overwhelming at all. I'm between an XS and a S and would go with a S for a little slouch; the XS fit was a bit "proper" for such a chunky knit. It's a great piece -- I'm waiting for the Plum to come back in stock. Tried the Burnt Sienna and it was just a bit too orange for me (the older stock photos made it look more brown, but the photo in the OP is much truer to life).&nbsp;</p> <p>I love L'Envers, tried on a Claude Cardigan a couple years ago but it was too long and too woolly for me. Very glad they have some cropped and cotton options now. I'm tempted by the Terra colour, and they have a beautiful pale sage colour now as well.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardigan-shopping---feedback-please#post-2194380 Tue, 11 May 2021 22:19:59 +0000 Style Fan 2194380@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, thank you!&nbsp; I do like the green a lot.&nbsp; No surprise there. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardigan-shopping---feedback-please#post-2194375 Tue, 11 May 2021 22:11:00 +0000 Angie 2194375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer the colours for you, and like the dropped sleeves too.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardigan-shopping---feedback-please#post-2194374 Tue, 11 May 2021 22:08:33 +0000 Style Fan 2194374@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, do you prefer #1 and #2 because of the dropped sleeve?&nbsp; I might look like a waif. But, of course, that was a look in the 90s.</p> <p>Bj1111, the cardigan does look oversized on the blogger Style Bee. However, I think she may have sized up. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardigan-shopping---feedback-please#post-2194366 Tue, 11 May 2021 21:55:12 +0000 Angie 2194366@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'd say #1 or #2.

I think with them, the dropped shoulder one does look more slouchy and casual, and so maybe the new dropped shoulder ones would look more slouchy than the raglan sleeve ones. Personally I like raglan sleeves on myself and you may or may not feel the same. Both colours of raglan sleeve cardigans are gorgeous! Synne does have a point that the buttons are very obvious on the one you like, and seem less so on the other. Just something to consider. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardigan-shopping---feedback-please#post-2194345 Tue, 11 May 2021 21:02:22 +0000 Anonymous 2194345@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Very much prefer the L'Envers, and thanks you for introducing me to this company, they have many beautiful things that appear to be very well made.&nbsp;</p> <p>Raglan sleeve in a heavy knit would always be preferable to dropped for me.</p> <p>Lovely! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/cardigan-shopping---feedback-please#post-2194344 Tue, 11 May 2021 20:43:25 +0000 Synne 2194344@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh! Bet they all will look gorgeous on you! A very "you" look. I was about to say I am personally not a fan of very contrasting buttons like in #3, but I see that is your favourite. Hm.. </p>
