The sweaters are fun and very “you”, Ms Sparkle Specialist. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/for-anne---sweaters#post-2124813 Mon, 01 Jun 2020 09:49:25 +0000 Bijou 2124813@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie - the pink is my favourite too, especially as it is my colour for 2020.</p> <p>Suz - DS can be quite cheeky at times!</p> <p>Janet - this blush pink is one of my favourite colours.</p> <p>Anne - you should have a look in the kids wear, they make some trendy gear for the teens and it usually is priced lower than equivalent adult clothing. I have bought from Witchery kids too - it is the same styles and fabrication as the adult clothing, but at about half the price.&nbsp;</p> <p>Sal - most of my clothes can go the distance, but comfy summer sandals and sweaters are usually quite hard for me to predict whether they will work and I am usually lucky if they last beyond 2 years with regular wear.</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/for-anne---sweaters#post-2124809 Mon, 01 Jun 2020 08:14:47 +0000 Sal 2124809@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great lateral thinking! These look terrific Bijou. And I agree - sweaters are the hardest thing to find and predict wearability of!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/for-anne---sweaters#post-2124806 Mon, 01 Jun 2020 03:40:05 +0000 anne 2124806@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Bijou! Yes, I wouldn't have considered looking in a kids' shop, but I know from trying on them on in other contexts that I'd fit into a child's 18.</p> <p>Your two new ones look very cute! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/for-anne---sweaters#post-2124742 Sun, 31 May 2020 15:45:17 +0000 JAileen 2124742@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That pink is your color! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/for-anne---sweaters#post-2124741 Sun, 31 May 2020 15:44:57 +0000 Suz 2124741@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>"Sparkle Specialist" -- what a great name. And fun sweaters, too! Those look just cozy enough for your mild winters and very flattering!&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/for-anne---sweaters#post-2124739 Sun, 31 May 2020 15:24:34 +0000 Angie 2124739@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>NICE.</p> <p>I adore the pink on you! Very neat and tidy fit. Good job leaving no retail stone unturned </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/for-anne---sweaters#post-2124681 Sun, 31 May 2020 09:37:04 +0000 Bijou 2124681@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Anne asked about sweater recommendations as we head into our Australian winter. Sweaters and knits are problematic for me. Most wool irritates my skin and cashmere is expensive and often pills and does not wear well no matter at what price point I buy at. I wanted some weekend sweaters to wear at home and out and about. I have sworn off paying lots of money for knits because it is yet to work out well for me. Often my cheap and cheerful buys are the best.</p> <p>I chanced upon these two knits in a children’s wear shop called Pavement. They go up to size 18 children, which is what I bought. Pricing is very reasonable. These were both priced at AUD$60 each, but with a special on I got both for $80 (about US$50). The quality is nice and the fit roomy. Anne, you may want to give them a look as I know you are even smaller than me, so Pavement will fit you. Normally I don’t wear grey, but the grey sweater has metallic stars and hearts and a hood, so I could not resist. DS calls me a “Sparkle Specialist” and declared that it looked like me. I am wearing it now! </p>
