The iPad is taking time to load, so I'm only connected by my phone. There's such an interesting variety of opinions here, which I like. In fact, not one but two SA's voted for the smaller size. </p> <p>Since my reception here is sketchy and not fast the way I like it, I'm recalling that in my post on the blue sweater someone saying there is sizing inconsistency with the sweaters. I would have to agree in that the ivory S seemed smaller than the navy S. In answer to your question, Sarah, I plan to keep both the ivory and navy since I think both colors work for me and can be layered for for autumn and winter use. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-small-sized-up-one#post-795141 Thu, 13 Dec 2012 14:44:24 +0000 Thistle 795141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the small better. Feels more on trend, and you can layer under it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-small-sized-up-one#post-795120 Thu, 13 Dec 2012 14:27:50 +0000 Anonymous 795120@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Color me *oppressively conventional* then! I like the length of the sleeves *and* the body much better on the XS. You still get an over-sized, slouchy sweater; there is no way you could call it fitted, even in the XS. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-small-sized-up-one#post-794951 Thu, 13 Dec 2012 04:44:32 +0000 sarah 794951@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rachylou is cracking me up.</p> <p>So, I've lost track, are you going with blue or cream? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-small-sized-up-one#post-794950 Thu, 13 Dec 2012 04:43:36 +0000 Aziraphale 794950@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Why is it that sales associates are always trying to get people to buy too-small clothes? I agree with the others; size small is the best, otherwise you lose some of the nice drape. You're not swimming in it. It looks perfect.</p> <p>I really notice this whenever I shop for jeans or yoga sweat pants. It seems like they invariably declare that the jeans look perfect when they give me muffin top, or the sweat pants look perfect when they are wedged up the crack of my bum. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-small-sized-up-one#post-794939 Thu, 13 Dec 2012 04:34:53 +0000 Sveta 794939@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I prefer a bigger size also. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-small-sized-up-one#post-794916 Thu, 13 Dec 2012 04:24:50 +0000 Marley 794916@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Still trying to get my brain wrapped around how these sweaters are supposed to fit. I just looked at Angie's pictures again, and from what I can tell, the length of her sweater falls at about the same place on her, as the XS falls on you. To me, the S just looks too long on you and really shortens your legs. Angie is taller than you, so maybe that's why the S doesn't look as long on her. I don't know - obviously, you can*not* trust my opinion on this sweater! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-small-sized-up-one#post-794879 Thu, 13 Dec 2012 03:38:01 +0000 Marley 794879@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I like the XS best. To me the armholes of the S, plus the excessive length of the sleeves just looks toooooo big to me! Also, if you want to wear a jacket over it, I think the XS would work best! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-small-sized-up-one#post-794689 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 23:18:08 +0000 Anonymous 794689@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Vicky, for the YLF aesthetic S is the ticket. For the average observer, XS fits best. It depends on how fashion forward you want to go with it. My personal preference would be for XS, I think it is still slouchy enough. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-small-sized-up-one#post-794680 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 22:23:46 +0000 Laura 794680@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Go for the slouch!<br /> Suz, better place another order ... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-small-sized-up-one#post-794666 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 21:50:24 +0000 Kristin L 794666@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote small as well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-small-sized-up-one#post-794645 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 21:20:39 +0000 Transcona Shannon 794645@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooohh...love the small on you Vicki! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-small-sized-up-one#post-794644 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 21:16:00 +0000 Suz 794644@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yikes. I ordered xs. Will probably have to reorder. But this looks fab on you Vicki!!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-small-sized-up-one#post-794636 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 20:51:19 +0000 Vicki 794636@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love you YLF peeps &amp; thanks for the haircut love, Angie, and Rachylou, you don't know how much I'm smiling and laughing with your comment. To answer your question, Angie, like the BF jeans, it took me a "minute or two" to see it, and I agree, it IS more fashion forward. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-small-sized-up-one#post-794627 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 20:43:25 +0000 rachylou 794627@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The small. Definitely the small.</p> <p>The XS is oppressively conventional. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-small-sized-up-one#post-794624 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 20:43:02 +0000 Angie 794624@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>MUCH prefer the S. That's how I chose to style this sweater myself. Mine is just as roomy as yours :)</p> <p>What do you think, Vicki? </p> <p>And your new haircut is adorable. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-small-sized-up-one#post-794621 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 20:40:26 +0000 kellygirl 794621@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Personally, I like the small. It fits you just like it fits me--only I bought a medium </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-small-sized-up-one#post-794620 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 20:39:52 +0000 Anonymous 794620@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh, I like the S! The extra room makes all the difference in the shoulders. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-small-sized-up-one#post-794619 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 20:39:46 +0000 Inge 794619@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>S is exactly how my sweater fits me, and how it looks on Angie, Sveta, Joy and the other lasses, I think, so I vote S:-)<br /> It looks fantastic on you, Vicki! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/gap-small-sized-up-one#post-794615 Wed, 12 Dec 2012 20:36:53 +0000 Vicki 794615@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What do you think?</p> <p>1 &amp; 2 are the small &amp; 3 is XS. SA says to go with the XS, but I trust you more. </p>
