I found those the sweater blazers at a store and wasn't very keen on any of the colors. I was hoping to get something a little different, but I know I can always count on jcrew for a v neck or cardigan in fun colors. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-v-neck-sweaters-to-wear-with-jeans#post-675439 Sun, 22 Jul 2012 18:03:36 +0000 Anonymous 675439@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deb,</p> <p>I'm actually a bit nervous about posting to your thread 'cos obviously I don't have anything remotely like Angie's competence to advise you!!! BUT, I am a tall gal with a big bust, and buy ALL my basic sweaters with a V-neck. I usually keep a clutch of cashmere ones for Winter, silk and cotton blend for Summer, in a range of zingy colours, to add the vital 'pop of colour' to basic suits, etc., and always have at least one in each of black, navy, beige, too. I find a V-neck to be the most flattering, since, generally speaking, we bigger busted girls have well-preserved skin over the throat area, which a V shows off nicely. It's also, I find, by far the best sweater shape for layering over the 'essential' crisp white button-down shirt (left open at the neck, so the collar sits nicely over the V, shirt cuffs rolled back over the sweater sleeves). That combo seems to look good for work, but also great with jeans and my staple ballet flats. I don't actually have any Vs with that pretty 'knot', but now I've seen it I wish I did. I love that soft draping over the bust. Go for it, would be my advice! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-v-neck-sweaters-to-wear-with-jeans#post-674857 Sat, 21 Jul 2012 20:22:45 +0000 Angie 674857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Deb, you should try them on anyway. I had those sweaters on full busted clients last week who did not feel "enboobend" in them. </p> <p>There are more colours of the sweater blazers in store - while stocks last </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-v-neck-sweaters-to-wear-with-jeans#post-674852 Sat, 21 Jul 2012 20:17:44 +0000 Deb 674852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks Angie. Those knot front sweaters are great, but I'm very self conscious about adding more attention/detail to my bust.<br /> Do you know if the sweater blazers have a wider range of colors in-store? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-v-neck-sweaters-to-wear-with-jeans#post-674835 Sat, 21 Jul 2012 20:02:35 +0000 Angie 674835@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi! </p> <p>Have you tried these? </p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/halogen-knot-front-sweater/3271484?origin=category&#038;fashionColor=Purple+Rosea&#038;resultback=5428" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/ha.....tback=5428</a></p> <p>Also buttoning up some of the V-neck cardigans that are on sale will do the trick marvelously well - pop a cami underneath and it's like a pullover. That's what some of my clients have ended up doing to get that v-neck. This is one example: </p> <p><a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/halogen-tipped-sweater-blazer/3271524?origin=category&#038;fashionColor=BLACK%2F+HEATHER+GREY+COLORBLOCK&#038;resultback=5691" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/ha.....tback=5691</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/nas-v-neck-sweaters-to-wear-with-jeans#post-674820 Sat, 21 Jul 2012 19:44:28 +0000 Deb 674820@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm a classic 5" 9" medium build hourglass with a strong shoulder line and a larger bust in DESPERATE need of fun business casual sweaters. </p> <p>I love the weight and colors of the Valette sweaters in Angie's NAS recommendations, but I can't pull off round or boat neck tops without looking like I'm all shoulders and bust.</p> <p>Does anyone have any suggestions? Is there anything else at NAS that might work for me other than the foil sweater (it's not a color I look good in) </p>
