All of the colors complement/coordinate yet there is no matching. I am enjoying the cut of the jacket in addition to the vibrant colors.&nbsp; Lovely! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-102513---pink-purple-and-a-hilarious-shopping-mistake#post-1063581 Sat, 26 Oct 2013 00:35:20 +0000 Angie 1063581@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YES. I realized the child's size&nbsp;later and mentioned so in my post. DD looks cute as a button,&nbsp;and is lucky to have a stylish role model Mama. Love you in retro florals Amy.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-102513---pink-purple-and-a-hilarious-shopping-mistake#post-1063537 Fri, 25 Oct 2013 23:39:25 +0000 Debra 1063537@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your outfit Amy and I soooooo wish I could knit, very cute little jumper...<br /> Great score for your daughter </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-102513---pink-purple-and-a-hilarious-shopping-mistake#post-1063459 Fri, 25 Oct 2013 22:46:29 +0000 Tanya 1063459@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>For all the ladies that loved the leopard sweater, Bloomingdas has&nbsp; a very similar one (albeit much more expensive as it is cashmere):<br /><a href="http://www1.bloomingdales.com/shop/product/aqua-cashmere-sweater-animal-intarsia-pullover?ID=765197&amp;upc_ID=1617020&amp;Quantity=1&amp;seqNo=3&amp;EXTRA_PARAMETER=BAG" rel="nofollow"><a href="http://www1.bloomingdales.com/shop/product/aqua-cashmere-sweater-animal-intarsia-pullover?ID=765197&#038;amp" rel="nofollow">http://www1.bloomingdales.com/.....7&#038;amp</a>;</a></p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-102513---pink-purple-and-a-hilarious-shopping-mistake#post-1063457 Fri, 25 Oct 2013 22:45:57 +0000 Deborah 1063457@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Amy you look amazing!

Jacket twins! Bummer about the shoes, they look good.<br /> I don't know if you buying a kids' sweater is worse than me buying that jacket twice. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-102513---pink-purple-and-a-hilarious-shopping-mistake#post-1063442 Fri, 25 Oct 2013 22:38:48 +0000 Tanya 1063442@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Too funny, but your DD look awesome in her new sweater.&nbsp; I adore your umbrella sweater too, so pretty with the floral moto. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-102513---pink-purple-and-a-hilarious-shopping-mistake#post-1063439 Fri, 25 Oct 2013 22:36:48 +0000 Jjsloane 1063439@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Funny, I almost bought that sweater too (clicking through Angie's link), but realized it was in Girl's dept.

Your DD looks a treat in the sweater. I love the quirky sweater and floral jacket. The colours are lovely. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-102513---pink-purple-and-a-hilarious-shopping-mistake#post-1062972 Fri, 25 Oct 2013 15:44:04 +0000 Amy 1062972@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I thought there was an adult size, Diana, but I'm not sure. I've been doing a lot of squirelly things lately so would be hesitant to blame it on the Gap; however, I have noticed the crazy sizing discrepancies with some of their items. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-102513---pink-purple-and-a-hilarious-shopping-mistake#post-1062970 Fri, 25 Oct 2013 15:42:15 +0000 Diana 1062970@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ooh, I love the floral moto and the umbrella sweater together.&nbsp; The colors make me happy.&nbsp; =)</p> <p>And too funny about the sweater!&nbsp; Is there actually an adult version too?&nbsp; Gap has been screwing up my online orders a lot lately... I ordered some size 10 pants that must have been missized because they were smaller than the size 8 (and the replacement was the right size), and they sent me size 6 instead of 8 for the Ultra Skinnies.&nbsp; Someone needs better order fulfillment training... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-102513---pink-purple-and-a-hilarious-shopping-mistake#post-1062966 Fri, 25 Oct 2013 15:39:44 +0000 Amy 1062966@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p><b>Casual Friday! </b></p> <p>Jacket: W118 (bought from Anna)<br />Umbrella Sweater: handknit by me<br />Pants: Loft Scuba Straight Ankle Pants. (I let them down an inch. Hope that looks ok!)<br />Shoes: Painful horrid things. I'm going to toss after today and replace with something better</p> <p><b>Shopping Mistake:</b></p> <p>After Angie posted an outfit idea for white jeans in winter, I decided to try it. I have some white jeans on order. I also bought the leopard print sweater pictured in the ensemble from the Gap in size 8 (M). </p> <p>The jeans still aren't here, but the sweater arrived and it was immediately apparent that something was wrong.</p> <p>I bought a size 8 <b>children</b>'s sweater! Oops. Luckily, my daughter likes it hahaha. </p>
