I think I will return it and order the LLB one. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-making-i-returnkr#post-898816 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 18:15:51 +0000 Ingunn 898816@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I have my beloved mariniere, or Breton, and I also have a couple of jersey tees with similar stripes. Like Suz points out, I don't think they are interchangeable. I love to layer under the Breton, but the striped tees are too thin for that. They are best under something.&nbsp;They look like your JNY tee. So yes, I think you need both if you love stripes https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-making-i-returnkr#post-898775 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 17:36:32 +0000 Suz 898775@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ LLBean is really reasonable. Shipping is free and duty is calculated and added in so you do not pay on top of the order.&nbsp;<br /><br />I have a Small petite in the Land's End top and an XS regular in the LL Bean one, FWIW.&nbsp;<br /><br />Thanks for the kind words on my daughter. Obviously, I had nothing to do with it, but she is lovely looking, isn't she? With her au courant pattern mixing.... https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-making-i-returnkr#post-898763 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 17:24:13 +0000 Glory 898763@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thanks Suz so much. Your daughter is lovely! &nbsp;I really love the looks of these - classic but has the ability to dress up and down. I am smitten with the LLB version but the shipping and duty...not sure how that will work out. I have looked here for something similar but the one I have is a dreadful quality and feels like a sack within an hour to two.&nbsp;I am very unsure on sizing for LLB. I was thinking of regular medium but want it loose fitting. I might return the Winners one and to for the LLB since it looks more versatile. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-making-i-returnkr#post-898753 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 17:19:11 +0000 Suz 898753@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Glory - I have this LLB sweater in the off-white and Mary K also has it. I have another similar one from Land's End. Yes, I love this French nautical stripe thing <b>that</b> much.&nbsp;<br /><br />I really like my LLB sweater. It is a bit loose and boxy on me, but super comfortable. I wear it constantly, both over a cami and over a button down (and in warmer weather on its own). A couple of photos to show you how it looks and fits.&nbsp;<br /><br />The last photo is my Land's End version. It's a slightly different fabrication and because I bought petite in the Land's End one, it is shorter. It's also even boxier in fit. But I like it a lot, too, because I can let a pop of another colour show underneath it, as in the picture.&nbsp;<br /><br />I don't think you can go wrong with one of these. I expect to purchase another one in a different colour, in fact. It's just such a useful item for me.&nbsp;<br /><br />ETA: the JNY one looks much more like a T shirt. The LLBean and Land's End are more like lightweight cotton sweaters that can be worn as tops as long as temps do not rise too high. They are a more substantial fabrication. So to my eye they are not duplicates. They would serve different purposes.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/when-making-i-returnkr#post-898736 Thu, 04 Apr 2013 17:08:40 +0000 Glory 898736@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Sveta - copying your action. Made a return (4 actually) to Winners and found this striped knit top from Jones New York - pics with yellow on collar. I did buy it. However, I have had this one from LL Bean in my cart for a long time (pic 1). What do you think? I am replacing one that has lost its shape after 4 wears.
