To me, it seems like a versatile workhorse that is never going to be dressy but would be neat, tidy, and fun if you style it right. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-sweater-too-casual-or-is-it-cute#post-309369 Mon, 07 Mar 2011 02:00:42 +0000 catgirl 309369@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm late here, but I am purging (read: bringing to our cabin!) several hoodies like this which just don't seem to meet the smart casual standard. I like having one to throw on around the house, but don't feel I can pull them off as anything but gear elsewhere. I definitely have to resist the appeal of hoodies so I sympathize! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-sweater-too-casual-or-is-it-cute#post-309354 Mon, 07 Mar 2011 01:42:37 +0000 Cilleena 309354@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I did see the motorcycle jacket, Kristine. It's tempting. I really like the look. But, I have order a navy cardi and a navy blazer in the last week...should I have a navy motojacket too? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-sweater-too-casual-or-is-it-cute#post-309258 Sun, 06 Mar 2011 22:46:02 +0000 Kristine 309258@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the hoodie's cute but it's definitely casual. I'd wear it at home or maybe for a quick store run. </p> <p>Did you see the french terry motorcycle jacket?</p> <p><a href="http://www.eddiebauer.com/catalog/product.jsp?ensembleId=38985&#038;se=1" rel="nofollow">http://www.eddiebauer.com/cata.....&#038;se=1</a></p> <p>I know you're not a huge fan of jackets, but this one looks comfortable...</p> <p><a href="http://www.eddiebauer.com/catalog/product.jsp?ensembleId=39025&#038;se=1" rel="nofollow">http://www.eddiebauer.com/cata.....&#038;se=1</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-sweater-too-casual-or-is-it-cute#post-309244 Sun, 06 Mar 2011 21:52:40 +0000 carrie 309244@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote nay on the hoodie. The tanks are really cute and probably very versatile; they would definitely fit into the smart-casual category, but could be dressed down too. I think you would get a lot of milage out of them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-sweater-too-casual-or-is-it-cute#post-309243 Sun, 06 Mar 2011 21:47:51 +0000 Cilleena 309243@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute sweater! I had missed that! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-sweater-too-casual-or-is-it-cute#post-309242 Sun, 06 Mar 2011 21:43:52 +0000 Kappy 309242@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks realllllllly casual. Do you like the short sleeved cropped shine cardigan they have? That looks comfy AND smart. You'd look adorable in an outfit similar to the model.</p> <p><a href="http://www.eddiebauer.com/catalog/product.jsp?ensembleId=39009&#038;se=1" rel="nofollow">http://www.eddiebauer.com/cata.....&#038;se=1</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-sweater-too-casual-or-is-it-cute#post-309178 Sun, 06 Mar 2011 19:35:01 +0000 Janet 309178@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a similar hoodie sweater from about 4 years ago that felt fresh at the time but is now relegated to around-the-house wear. So my vote would be no. Sorry! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-sweater-too-casual-or-is-it-cute#post-309176 Sun, 06 Mar 2011 19:30:14 +0000 Mo 309176@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think the hooded sweater is too casual as long as you are mindful of what you pair it with. But those chiffon tanks are great! Perfect way to step up a casual look! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-sweater-too-casual-or-is-it-cute#post-309166 Sun, 06 Mar 2011 19:07:34 +0000 biscuitsmom 309166@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like those tops better....I really like the green dress CRW posted too. The denim one would look better without all the fading (I guess Ive just totally burned out on that look, plus it highlights heavier areas on me.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-sweater-too-casual-or-is-it-cute#post-309165 Sun, 06 Mar 2011 19:07:31 +0000 Cilleena 309165@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like those dresses, but I've had not such good luck with anything "fitted" or woven from EB. I do ok with stretchy stuff like sweaters and basic tees. Doesn't look like either dress got very good reviews. I might try one anyway, just to see how it does on me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-sweater-too-casual-or-is-it-cute#post-309162 Sun, 06 Mar 2011 18:56:45 +0000 crwilson 309162@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like those tanks. And, fwiw, I would wear that sweater for casual (not at home) wear. If you wear it with ill-fitting jeans and sneakers, you would look too casual; conversely, if you pair it with well-fitting jeans and cute shoes and accessories, I think it would look nice (as long as it fit well).</p> <p>What about one of these dresses?<br /> <a href="http://www.eddiebauer.com/EB/Women/Dresses--Skirts/index.cat" rel="nofollow">http://www.eddiebauer.com/EB/W...../index.cat</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-sweater-too-casual-or-is-it-cute#post-309154 Sun, 06 Mar 2011 18:35:48 +0000 Cilleena 309154@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was thinking of the off-white. Ugh. I really do not need another wear at home piece. I need casual-smart casual. </p> <p>How about these tanks for summer layering? <a href="http://www.eddiebauer.com/catalog/product.jsp?ensembleId=38979&#038;&#038;categoryId=93&#038;categoryName=TEES--KNIT-TOPS&#038;pCategoryId=3&#038;pCategoryName=WOMEN&#038;gpCategoryId=1&#038;gpCategoryName=EB&#038;catPath=~~categoryId=93~~categoryName=TEES--KNIT-TOPS~~pCategoryId=3~~pCategoryName=WOMEN~~gpCategoryId=1~~gpCategoryName=EB&#038;viewAll=y" rel="nofollow">http://www.eddiebauer.com/cata.....;viewAll=y</a><br /> I have to buy something from EB. I don't like having over $100 merchandise credit just waiting to expire. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-sweater-too-casual-or-is-it-cute#post-309145 Sun, 06 Mar 2011 18:20:21 +0000 lyn* 309145@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a few of these sweaters; I usually wear them at home or as layerwear for getting through those -45 days... I vote pick something else </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-sweater-too-casual-or-is-it-cute#post-309144 Sun, 06 Mar 2011 18:19:52 +0000 biscuitsmom 309144@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it would be ok for running errands...Im just not a big fan of hoodies in general, to be honest...what color are you considering? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/is-this-sweater-too-casual-or-is-it-cute#post-309142 Sun, 06 Mar 2011 18:16:39 +0000 Cilleena 309142@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have some store credit for Eddie Bauer from a returned Xmas gift and I'm thinking about this sweater. Most of the clothes from EB is a little too boxy on me, especially their woven, button down shirts and blazers. I could see wearing this little sweater with a cute tee or casual top, jeans or clams and ballet flats or fashion sneakers. </p> <p>I do not need more loungewear though. So if it's only appropriate for staying home, I need to pick something else.</p> <p><a href="http://www.eddiebauer.com/catalog/product.jsp?ensembleId=39000&#038;&#038;categoryId=27465&#038;categoryName=WOMENS-SWEATERS-AND-CARDIGANS&#038;pCategoryId=95&#038;pCategoryName=SWEATERS--CARDIGANS&#038;gpCategoryId=3&#038;gpCategoryName=WOMEN&#038;ggpCategoryId=1&#038;ggpCategoryName=EB&#038;catPath=~~categoryId=27465~~categoryName=WOMENS-SWEATERS-AND-CARDIGANS~~pCategoryId=95~~pCategoryName=SWEATERS--CARDIGANS~~gpCategoryId=3~~gpCategoryName=WOMEN~~ggpCategoryId=1~~ggpCategoryName=EB&#038;viewAll=null" rel="nofollow">http://www.eddiebauer.com/cata.....ewAll=null</a> </p>
