It is soft, comfortable, and different than anything else in my closet.</p> <p></p> <p>The real deal sealer though was DHs reaction when I tried it on. He told me he loved it and I should keep it without being asked&nbsp; :)&nbsp; He really likes animal prints on me, I guess I can add reptile prints too.</p> <p></p> <p>I had actually felt like a put together a YLF outfit this morning as I would have never ever bought the sweater, shoes or watch in my pre-YLF days. And I would have thought the trousers too long :)</p> <p></p> <p></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-02062014---mid-winter-pick-me-up#post-1159486 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 17:13:10 +0000 catgirl 1159486@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay!

It would layer beautifully under waterfall cardis or jackets, too!&nbsp; And I like Suz's idea of pairing it with denim.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-02062014---mid-winter-pick-me-up#post-1159385 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 15:41:14 +0000 Catnip 1159385@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thistle, this is a great look.&nbsp; I love the sweater with the shoes. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-02062014---mid-winter-pick-me-up#post-1159376 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 15:33:52 +0000 abc 1159376@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love a good animal print and this one looks great on you. &nbsp;Flexible as someone mentioned as you can mix with jeans on the weekend, too. &nbsp;I agree with Parsley, I'd add a longer pendant type necklace to see how it works with this. &nbsp;Maybe in gold. &nbsp;I do this a lot with outfits like yours and it seems to add a vertical line and extra interest. &nbsp;Just a suggestion, though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-02062014---mid-winter-pick-me-up#post-1159339 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 14:55:42 +0000 Elizabeth P 1159339@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great look Thistle!&nbsp; I love how you have bookended the sweater with your footwear.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-02062014---mid-winter-pick-me-up#post-1159336 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 14:50:41 +0000 Parsley 1159336@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That sweater looks like a great pick-me-up, Thistle! I love the&nbsp;snake print.&nbsp;<br />The shoes bookend it perfectly, too, and look very current.</p> <p>Maybe it's just me, but I'd love to see how a bold necklace would look&nbsp;with this outfit. I think that would finish it off perfectly.</p> <p>With or without it, you look great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-02062014---mid-winter-pick-me-up#post-1159334 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 14:49:26 +0000 Suz 1159334@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I totally, totally hear you.&nbsp;</p> <p>Love this pick-me-up sweater. It looks great on you. Also looks as if it might work well with denim on weekends. It's great with those shoes.&nbsp;</p> <p>I actually placed an order shortly after Christmas for some on-sale pick-me-up sweaters. But delivered to the US. And guess what? The combination of bad weather and work deadlines has kept me from picking them up at the border. So by the time I get them I may not need them any more, alas....However. I guess that will be money saved in the long run.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-02062014---mid-winter-pick-me-up#post-1159333 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 14:47:11 +0000 Anonymous 1159333@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Really fun sweater! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-02062014---mid-winter-pick-me-up#post-1159322 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 14:39:55 +0000 Sarah A 1159322@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>fun sweater! i really like the shoes too </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-02062014---mid-winter-pick-me-up#post-1159321 Thu, 06 Feb 2014 14:37:38 +0000 Thistle 1159321@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I decided I wanted to add a sweater or two into my closet as frankly, I am sick of a lot of what is in there after this long cold winter!&nbsp; I opted for a fun sweater I wasn't sure was "me" or not at a price point I could live with if I donated it after a wear or two.</p> <p>Snake sweater (Old navy), cami (GAP), slim stright leg trousers (Talbots),&nbsp;Dolce Vita shoes (Nordstroms).</p> <p>I added my Movodo watch and wedding rings, but let the busy sweater do most of the talking. I would like this outfit even more with a brightly colored handbag (citron!), but I don't own one&nbsp;(and as I noted in my other post, you'd never see it anyway).&nbsp; </p>
