I did try on two teal long-sleeved tees since the color was gorgeous and I could use a new layering piece, but I didn't love either one, so they stayed behind. The fabric was nice and lightweight but just a little bit clingy for my preference. I got a nice sale price on those jeans though -- listed at $98 but I wound up paying about $63 instead. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-find-br-cashmere-shawl-yes-really#post-1609510 Sat, 30 Jan 2016 16:05:36 +0000 Angie 1609510@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Gorgeous scarf and brilliant price. My colour too.&nbsp;</p> <p>I haven't been bemoaning BR &amp; JC quality and cuts in the items I've bought at all. In fact quite the opposite. I bought these pieces last year and am in AWE of the quality and fit. Better than my Marc Jacobs stash!&nbsp;</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-find-br-cashmere-shawl-yes-really#post-1609503 Sat, 30 Jan 2016 15:42:21 +0000 Anonymous 1609503@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You know, I saw this , plus some sweaters under that label, at the BR store in Calgary last week. I contemplated , but didn't buy. That orange one is stunning. &nbsp;Great price too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/great-find-br-cashmere-shawl-yes-really#post-1609485 Sat, 30 Jan 2016 15:06:04 +0000 Roxanna 1609485@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi ladies,&nbsp;</p> <p>I know I have been bemoaning BR's quality, cuts and styles as of late but I did take a chance and order this cashmere shawl and I must say, it is sumptuous. It was spun by the Scottish Mill Todd &amp; Duncan and you can tell - it feels substantial, has great loft, and the detailed ribbing on the border is a nice touch. It is also a good size with a great drape. I've got it in my Finds below in the orange, but it's in a variety of colours.</p> <p>In Canada I got it for $106 - a steal - but it's no longer on the website, so try in store. In the US it is still there in a variety of neutrals (navy, grey, olive, cream etc) as well as the orange I got it in, but it's around $112 US (which is about 40% more given our exchange right now, but still a good deal for this weight cashmere.)</p> <p>Just wanted to share - a nice cozy addition to get us all through February </p>
