It is somewhat similar to your Equipment shirt, but a different color and texture. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-787028 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 19:36:14 +0000 Anonymous 787028@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's a great addition to your wardrobe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-787023 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 19:31:08 +0000 ManidipaM 787023@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>LOVE. That colour! And awesome front tuck---very, very cool, if cashmere snakeskin could get any cooler. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-786998 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 18:51:43 +0000 Angie 786998@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You could go either blue or green, Una! Both fab and no regrets either way :)</p> <p>We will have to leave the green for Inge. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-786994 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 18:46:52 +0000 catgirl 786994@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Angie, I did see the green! There is no color of this sweater I wouldn't wear. But I did think of what RunnerRae said with duplicating the green snake shirt... What do you suggest? And thanks for chiming in with your arm troubles... I appreciate it.</p> <p>Shannon, I have purged a bag of stuff each week with these new purchases. I think the kitchen remodel is helping - I have lots of spare time in the house and we got rid of old kitchen stuff which felt so good! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-786862 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 15:48:55 +0000 Ornella 786862@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'll repeat myself: you've gone minimal, with pieces with maximum impact. Gotta love that. Way to go girl! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-786860 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 15:47:39 +0000 Angie 786860@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Do not size down. I like this on you! Did you see the green? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-786855 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 15:45:24 +0000 Transcona Shannon 786855@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>OH YES!!! And I like this size - a bit looser suits the style beautifully IMO.</p> <p>BTW Una - you are really REALLY inspiring me through your "backward" purging. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-786799 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 14:38:39 +0000 Janet 786799@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had this in my shopping cart but balked because of the price and my lack of need for it. (Yeah, like I *need* any more clothes at all!) So I'm biased because I already loved it! But I do think this looks really fantastic on you. I wouldn't change the size, I don't think. You could go smaller if you want a sweater with a more fitted silhouette (I was thinking of a small for myself, but I think we often take the same size in tops), but I like this slightly generous size on you. Especially the partial tuck. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-786768 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 13:54:30 +0000 marianna 786768@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I adore this sweater, and it's beautiful on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-786761 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 13:17:16 +0000 Karie 786761@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't think it looks too big for you. How does it fit in the shoulders? Better to size up and have it a little big for a slouchy fit than to size down and (God forbid!) you eat too much over the holidays and gain 5 lbs., then it is too small :(<br /> I always try on two sizes for comparison, so if you can get the other size and try it, I would do that and then make up your mind.<br /> But I think it looks great on you as is </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-786749 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 12:52:25 +0000 Laura 786749@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's great, Una. I admired the green in the catalog and like the blue even better. Doesn't it feel good to be out with the old, in with the new?? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-786744 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 12:49:08 +0000 sarah 786744@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like it. I love that shape and it's such a fun color/pattern. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-786736 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 12:31:32 +0000 Raisin 786736@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like it on you and I think the fit is good for a more slouchy look. My only thought is, it quite reminds me of your emerald equipment blouse, and I know it's a cashmere sweater, so totally different material, but it has the same look to me. So it's a slight duplication in my books, but if you're not like me and can't stand duplication, your fine. For me, I would have had to go for a solid sweater or something. Looks great on you though! I suspect you're not as neurotic about duplication as me, so I think it's a beautiful color on you and looks really great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-786726 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 11:44:28 +0000 Anonymous 786726@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also would like to see it in the smaller size. I think bigger will look good too but as you said you already have lots of oversized items. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-786706 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 08:33:12 +0000 Kristin SF 786706@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the color and the style. But I especially love that hat! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-786687 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 07:13:55 +0000 Caro in Oz 786687@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think you've invented a new term "backward purging" love it &amp; the top. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-786651 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 05:29:09 +0000 Parsley 786651@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like it, and I'm not at all sure that a different size would be better. It seems pretty perfect as is. But it can't hurt to try the other sizes just to be sure. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-786648 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 05:21:36 +0000 Amy 786648@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a perfect top for you. Love that color and print combo. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-786647 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 05:21:33 +0000 goldenpig 786647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I couldn't help myself and just ate four salt water taffy candies after seeing your sweater. Hope you don't mind me pointing that out about the print! I blame it on pregnancy cravings! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-786637 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 05:00:18 +0000 catgirl 786637@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hmm, my store has it in XS in yellow. Maybe I can go try it on for size comparison and exchange if it's better. Thanks for being honest, Rae! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-786626 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 04:54:03 +0000 catgirl 786626@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That was my concern. This is S. I could go down to an XS but I don't want to lose the slouch. Or maybe it's too long for me? It's the same length as my citron sweater but a slightly more boxy shape.</p> <p>On the other hand, I do not need more of the truly oversized sweaters which I have already! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-786622 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 04:51:11 +0000 rae 786622@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hm... I think this particular size may be either too big or too small. It is not quite a slim/slouchy fit and not quite an oversized/drapey fit. At least with the skinnies. Have you tried it with your bootcuts? That might work better.</p> <p>ETA: I DO love it though. The color and print in cashmere? Way fab. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-786616 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 04:46:51 +0000 catgirl 786616@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>One of the other things I've been considering is what holds value and can be consigned - not that I'm planning ahead of time to get rid of things, but certain brands and styles seem to remain in circulation longer. </p> <p>But yes, I will say that for every item that's come in, at least 10 thrifted or worn-out items have gone out in the last year! The more I love my new stuff, the more I'm willing to let go of the old. Backward purging? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-786612 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 04:43:13 +0000 MNsara 786612@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay, I really love the sweater and think you'll enjoy it!</p> <p>I think I have the faintest of lightbulbs glowing above my head, and if I read it right it says: this is why we buy only a few fantastic $$$ items, so we can wear the heck out of them and not be reluctant to move on in a year or few when<br /> a. it shows wear<br /> b. we're tired of it<br /> c. our tastes evolve<br /> d. it starts to look dated<br /> e. all of the above</p> <p>and if none of those happen, it happily stays in our closet and gets used </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-786611 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 04:43:05 +0000 RunnerChick 786611@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So you!

I vote yay! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kr-cobalt-snake-equipment-sweater#post-786592 Sun, 02 Dec 2012 04:29:33 +0000 catgirl 786592@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I used my 10 point day with this cashmere sweater because I could not resist the print. It runs big but I like that... Thought I should add blue to my sweater repetoire, although this also comes in three other gorgeous colors. Honest feedback please - too square/loose/OTT/anything else? Unflattering? Off my style radar? UWP enough? Can be dressed up or down - do you agree?</p> <p>TIA! I will go with your vote. </p>
