But it's not as long as the tan one, and the knit of my sweater seems to have a bit more body than the knit of the Nordstrom sweater, so it lays fine. I'm not sure a thinner knit would lay as nicely; it might just look floppy. (Also, I don't have much in the way of, er, "girls," so I appreciate the extra bulk in front!)

I didn't try it on, but I was intrigued by the look of it, and the fabric felt so soft and cozy. It looks like it has snaps at the back of the drape part (in the online photo), and I think I recall seeing them, too. Seems like it would be versatile. It looks longer than the Zella one. I think the Nordstrom one could work well for your purpose, and it would be cozy! It couldn't hurt to give it a try. lisaflex on "Have you seen these wrap cardis in person?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-wrap-cardis-in-person#post-1573836 Mon, 19 Oct 2015 21:26:19 +0000 lisaflex 1573836@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ i tried it on the other day at nordies and i think my issue was that i had a bit too much boobage for a top like that to lay properly celia on "Have you seen these wrap cardis in person?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-wrap-cardis-in-person#post-1573819 Mon, 19 Oct 2015 20:39:15 +0000 celia 1573819@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think sometime with lapels like this <a href="http://oldnavy.gapcanada.ca/browse/product.do?cid=89219&vid=1&pid=596384003" rel="nofollow">http://oldnavy.gapcanada.ca/br.....=596384003</a> would work better for what you want.

No metal, and I was fine in recovery and at home afterward. A basic one, even sized up, will still give some firmness/support and smoothing. I sleep in a bralette at night, but would hate to wear it under a tee; the shape is semi-supported but rather strange. abc on "Have you seen these wrap cardis in person?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-wrap-cardis-in-person#post-1573793 Mon, 19 Oct 2015 19:10:48 +0000 abc 1573793@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Traci I totally get it. I hope you find something that works. I usually put my arms over the girls in those situations but in reality it probably draws more attention that way. Wish there was an easy solution. Take care.

I'm sure you already considered this though :( Best of luck.

Well, I definitely don't fall into the category of "taller person." I was hoping this would fill a weird wardrobe hole I'm having of "pretend noone can notice I'm not wearing a bra right now."  When I'm staying in the hospital with my daughter overnight, at some point I have to get comfortable for bed and take off my bra, but from time to time I have to run out of the room for ice water or a popsicle.  In those instances I've been throwing on a drapey cardigan that I pretend covers my front enough that no passers by (there aren't many) notice that my ladies are riding low.  I thought this could be a chicer option.  Alas, I guess not. rachylou on "Have you seen these wrap cardis in person?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-wrap-cardis-in-person#post-1573727 Mon, 19 Oct 2015 16:48:53 +0000 rachylou 1573727@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I can't get that style to hang right on me... catgirl on "Have you seen these wrap cardis in person?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-wrap-cardis-in-person#post-1573719 Mon, 19 Oct 2015 16:39:43 +0000 catgirl 1573719@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I tried the first one on and felt it was very hard to keep "just so" - it doesn't just fall into place and arrange itself, and if it doesn't lay right, you get a big U of fabric like you could carry an infant in it.  Maybe it's better on a taller person.  Traci on "Have you seen these wrap cardis in person?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/have-you-seen-these-wrap-cardis-in-person#post-1573652 Mon, 19 Oct 2015 14:41:50 +0000 Traci 1573652@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I really like the cream Nordstrom wrap cardi in finds below.  I noticed the Zella cardigan can be worn open or wrapped and wondered if the Nordstrom wrap is the same.  Has anyone seen this?  I prefer the drape of the Nordstrom wrap, but if it doesn't have the versatility I'd probably just get the Zella. thanks!
