So it would depend on your purposes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oversizedor-just-too-big#post-1082059 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 03:27:47 +0000 Diana 1082059@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That looks a lot like a j crew sweater I tried on today (only that one really was too big for me since they only had a size larger than my normal; am considering ordering a smaller size though)! I think the fit looks good, the arms fit right so you can tell its deliberately oversized. </p> <p><a href="http://www.jcrew.com/womens_category/sweaters/Pullover/PRDOVR~04842/04842.jsp?isSaleItem=true&#038;color_name=Hthr-Breeze&#038;TCode=GGBS00006_99103138782&#038;sisearchengine=197&#038;siproduct=04842&#038;noPopUp=true&#038;gclid=CIG_gJyn3roCFYJ9OgodtzsAjg" rel="nofollow">http://www.jcrew.com/womens_ca.....OgodtzsAjg</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oversizedor-just-too-big#post-1082025 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 02:59:53 +0000 Jaime 1082025@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also like them both and would keep the one up for contention - I love that sort of fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oversizedor-just-too-big#post-1082024 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 02:57:46 +0000 Amy 1082024@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oversizedor-just-too-big#post-1081992 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 02:37:42 +0000 peacechick 1081992@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the darker one looks great with vivid colors like the scarf you have on--perfect.

I am new to your second sweater, but I see it's getting the forum's approval. I'm worried that I have done oversized in the wrong way. That's a pretty fashion forward sweater for Talbots: good score! I love the first sweater too. The scarf and your phone are great accent colors on you.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oversizedor-just-too-big#post-1081973 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 02:18:28 +0000 karymk 1081973@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Comparing the first sweater and the second; the FIRST one is more elegant, has more gravitas and the color is better! Hmmm. &nbsp;Why not try the second one in the lavender. &nbsp;It will mix wonderfully with grey. &nbsp;I feel like it's not a deep enough grey for your strong hair color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oversizedor-just-too-big#post-1081967 Tue, 12 Nov 2013 02:15:44 +0000 NDMom 1081967@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like them both, but especially love the first with that lovely scarf! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oversizedor-just-too-big#post-1081726 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 22:54:15 +0000 AviaMariah 1081726@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like this fit too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oversizedor-just-too-big#post-1081597 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 21:26:30 +0000 carambola 1081597@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great to me!

I'm liking oversized/fluid these days but really don't know where that ends and too big begins. Thanks for the answers. I will keep and enjoy the sweater.</p> <p>Greyscale...of course you like grey! The darker one is Ann Taylor. Really doesn't look like much online...I looked right past it until I saw the grey one in the store. Here it is. I think it isn't as short as it looks on the model:</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.anntaylor.com/draped-v-neck-sweater/313190?colorExplode=false&amp;skuId=14999079&amp;catid=cata000011&amp;productPageType=fullPriceProducts&amp;defaultColor=8277">http://www.anntaylor.com/drape.....tid=cata00</a></p> <p>The one that was in question is from Talbots and on sale now. The color they show it in is so yuck it is easy to look right past it too. It is online only.</p> <p><a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.talbots.com/online/browse/product_details.jsp?id=prdi31580&amp;rootCategory=cat70018&amp;catId=cat90030&amp;sortKey=Default&amp;section=Sale&amp;conceptIdUnderSale=cat90030">http://www.talbots.com/online/.....8;catId=ca</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oversizedor-just-too-big#post-1081511 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 20:05:07 +0000 Hil 1081511@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the fit on the second and think the colours on both are great! Good finds! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oversizedor-just-too-big#post-1081507 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 20:02:11 +0000 Greyscale 1081507@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think they're both lovely. The new lighter gray one looks intentionally oversized, to me. It might also be fine a size smaller, but I'd keep it. It's such a nice color, too. Would you mind sharing where they're from? I'm also on a gray sweater quest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oversizedor-just-too-big#post-1081505 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 20:01:10 +0000 catgirl 1081505@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it's great.&nbsp; Huge fan of fluid and grey fit! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oversizedor-just-too-big#post-1081504 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 20:01:06 +0000 Sona 1081504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I actually really like the fit. Oversized=yes. too big=no. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oversizedor-just-too-big#post-1081499 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 19:55:38 +0000 JG 1081499@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think the sweater fit is modern. For me grey is less gloomy than black in winter and almost as versatile, so 2 grey sweaters is not too many. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/oversizedor-just-too-big#post-1081444 Mon, 11 Nov 2013 18:57:16 +0000 Peri 1081444@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I ordered this grey sweater (pics 3-5) as part of my grey sweater search. It is online only so I wasn't able to try on in the store. I've been liking things more loose than fitted lately so I bought a medium. I like it a lot, but I'm not sure if I should exchange for a small. What is the difference between the right kind of oversized and just too big?!</p> <p>Also, how is the color? I'm including shots of the keeper grey sweater to compare. (Pics one and two). Is the darker color better for me or is this shade good too? There is a lilac shade of the sweater in question that I could exchange the grey medium for if it isn't that great. </p> <p>Clarifying cause I got the pics out of logical order...the first two are of the keeper sweater. Pics 3-5 is the sweater in question for size and color.</p> <p>Thanks! </p>
