I love #2 on you- it would look great with slouchier pants &amp; heels for evening too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029630 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 21:44:36 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1029630@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1 - yes<br />#2 - yes</p> <p>Next question? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029601 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 21:21:09 +0000 unfrumped 1029601@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Haha, I also love their term, Fall Navy!<br /> What marketing! I guess they think it's like Winter White. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029572 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 20:50:19 +0000 Makrame 1029572@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the sequin sweatshirt! &nbsp;The fit looks great to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029533 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 20:07:53 +0000 CocoLion 1029533@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think these are super chic for your at-home capsule. &nbsp;I am the same: &nbsp;I reserve the woven shirts for work or out of the home. &nbsp;There's just nothing like knits and denim for loungewear I think! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029529 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 19:59:46 +0000 Scarlet 1029529@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>First one is great. I love the second one. At least in the photo it reads as an interesting texture that would work great for a fall/winter dark outfit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029521 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 19:41:51 +0000 Suz 1029521@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sveta, I got XS. I was worried that maybe the S would be better in the navy but it is sold out anyway now I think, so that is all moot at this point!&nbsp;</p> <p></p> <p>ETA: the fits are much more fluid than their last year's sweaters. At least the fits of these. I have a couple of sweaters of theirs from last year that I am consigning due to lack of fluidity in the fit. Technically they are fine -- just not what I want in my knits now.&nbsp;</p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029517 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 19:39:32 +0000 Sveta 1029517@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You make me want&nbsp; to order both of them too! Hmm, navy sequin, now with the recent YLF order fro Angie - should I speing?:-)<br />I think they are bot lovely on you but you already figured it out, right?<br />Which size did you got? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029488 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 18:49:01 +0000 Suz 1029488@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks, all! I am cutting the tags.&nbsp;</p> <p>The striped one looks better IRL, I think. Well, they both look better IRL, to tell the truth! It was so dark when I took those pics. Oy.&nbsp;</p> <p>Becky, I think these are both great weights for today's weather. I will wear them through the autumn but less in the winter. I don't know if the sale will be in store as well as online. So it might be worth checking that.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029386 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 16:46:05 +0000 Day Vies 1029386@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like #2 better than #1. I think you've found your bliggy sweatshirt. I like #1 well enough but it doesn't leap off the screen. I like the bookending in #1 with the merlot boots.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029365 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 16:17:07 +0000 cobaltblue 1029365@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Suz, I think these are great! It goes without saying that the fuchsia is perfection on you, and the glittery obe is a fun way to try the fancy sweatshirt trend.</p> <p>We've been planning a trip to the mall for today, and I'll definitely work in BR now that I've seen these. If you think these are a smart buy as far as weight, etc., right now weather-wise, I'm assuming they would be for me, too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029346 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 15:47:42 +0000 Ingunn 1029346@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in both, and I vote keep! They are both perfect Suz-fabulous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029334 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 15:24:40 +0000 unfrumped 1029334@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both look fun to me. I like the mix of shine with the sporty style. I wondered about how fluid to go in fit though- as in a size up? Or is it better as more refined fit? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029329 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 15:16:51 +0000 kellygirl 1029329@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, I love them both. The stripes are fantastic on you. LOVE the chain mail. I think hand wash is fine It looks amazing and will be fun to incorporate into your capsules for some added pizazz! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029323 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 15:13:19 +0000 Kristin L 1029323@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They both look like keepers IMO. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029300 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 14:54:48 +0000 rae 1029300@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#2 is already sold out now! It is hard to see the details you mean in your pic, but they both look like they fit and flatter. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029283 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 14:44:53 +0000 donnat 1029283@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both are terrific. I think the sequin one is a tad out of your style zone, but it looks great on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029264 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 14:33:24 +0000 Angie 1029264@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thumbs up all the way from me. Especially #2. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029239 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 14:07:28 +0000 Eliza 1029239@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look great in both. &nbsp;The first one is a no-brainer. &nbsp;The second one looks like a lot of fun also and because it is so festive, maybe not having extra drape is a good thing.&nbsp;</p> <p>You have also caused me to re-dedicate myself to a search for booties in a burgundy or cranberry. &nbsp;I have tried a couple that didn't work, but what a great element to add to an outfit.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029233 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 14:03:55 +0000 Mo 1029233@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>From what I can see in the pic it looks great. (the link says sold out for me) Good way to upgrade your at home knit capsule. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029226 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 13:58:31 +0000 Anonymous 1029226@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>#1= Fab, No brainer.<br />#2 =From your description I was wondering what on earth the sweater was going to look like... then I opened up the photo and I love it! I like that the sequins are in a sort of random wavy pattern when the light hits them and to me it has enough drape. Very nice! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029213 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 13:28:16 +0000 Suz 1029213@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hunh. I just looked more closely. It says on the tag that it should NOT be dry cleaned and should ONLY be hand washed cold. Well, go figure. That makes it an easier decision.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029209 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 13:25:02 +0000 Sarah A 1029209@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would go for it then! looks great on you... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029201 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 13:15:01 +0000 Anonymous 1029201@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Both look great on you Suz! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029197 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 13:12:52 +0000 Suz 1029197@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yeah, Sarah - it is not for the base material, which is cotton. It's basically a kids' sweatshirt in a more sophisticated pattern, you are right!! :-)&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029193 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 13:11:30 +0000 Sarah A 1029193@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>ETA: DD 4 yrs old has many shirts with what look like this type of sequin (arranged in a less sophisticated manner) and they all seem to do fine in the washer. SO if the dryclean is for the sparkle as opposed to the base material I think you will be fine. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029190 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 13:09:11 +0000 Sarah A 1029190@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they both look nice, that magenta is calling my name! My one concern is that a few dry clean sweaters i have handwashed i have lost some length on (even blocking when wet is subsequent washes didnt seem too do much), making them too short for pants... how is the length on these? Could you afford to lose a bit and still wear with pants? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-br-knits#post-1029185 Sat, 14 Sep 2013 13:05:40 +0000 Suz 1029185@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Heheh, Ceit, I knew that "chain mail" reference would get to you. &nbsp;:-)&nbsp;</p> <p>In all seriousness, it would work well for your style.&nbsp;</p> <p>The only issue is that it's supposedly dry cleanable only. I intend to ignore that and wash it in cold and hang to dry. The rest of the thing is 100% cotton I think, and a really nice soft cotton, too.&nbsp; </p>
