The sweater hits my hip bones, so no worries there. There's enough room to layer underneath it too. I'll post a photo later. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-wib-fair-isle-pullovers#post-1980449 Fri, 07 Dec 2018 13:39:11 +0000 Bijou 1980449@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This sweater looks great on you and I love the one that you have ordered. As for the David Bowie t-shirt, that is going to be so much fun all year round. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-wib-fair-isle-pullovers#post-1980437 Fri, 07 Dec 2018 13:11:58 +0000 Christina F. 1980437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh Chris! Yes we are find twins! I fell in love with that seater for sure. I am 5’4 but very short waisted (enough that I can take a petite size on top). No worries there. Moderately thick sounds good. I ordered from Lucky Brand’s website, along with this Bowie tee. </p> <p>Angie, Chris and I can be sweater twins instead! </p> <p>Cee, I didn’t but that sweater but it looks smashing on Angie. </p> <p>Thanks Firecracker, I do love the colors. </p> <p>kkards, YES. That’s probably why I bought it, and that LOFT one. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-wib-fair-isle-pullovers#post-1980420 Fri, 07 Dec 2018 12:04:55 +0000 kkards 1980420@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fair isle and stripes in 1 sweater? sign me up!&nbsp;<br />FAB </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-wib-fair-isle-pullovers#post-1980404 Fri, 07 Dec 2018 10:40:06 +0000 Chris987 1980404@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great sweaters!&nbsp;<br />You and I are often "find twins", and I was the one who created the find for that black Lucky sweater after I saw it IRL at L&amp;T and brought it home. I didn't see it on their web site but did at Macys.com so that's the store the find is from. </p> <p>It's a moderately thick cotton and the pattern doesn't come too far down on the body, which were both things that appealed to me in addition to the dark color.&nbsp; The fit is great, especially the length, which is usually the case for this brand on me. If I remember correctly you are a few inches taller than me so will be interesting to see if it's a good length for you. Warm enough for indoor wear over another layer but not as warm as heavy wool.&nbsp;</p> <p>I already got a compliment on it as a "great Christmas sweater" when I wore it last weekend to breakfast at a place where Santa was holding court. Works well with jeans and I could also see it with a simple black skirt, tights, booties. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-wib-fair-isle-pullovers#post-1980369 Fri, 07 Dec 2018 05:08:51 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1980369@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice collection of Fair Isles! I think the Lucky one is a good pick; I can see it looking great with your hair and coloring. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-wib-fair-isle-pullovers#post-1980343 Fri, 07 Dec 2018 03:37:18 +0000 Jaime 1980343@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks great! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-wib-fair-isle-pullovers#post-1980260 Thu, 06 Dec 2018 21:53:37 +0000 Angie 1980260@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute Fair Isle look, and fun that we were almost Fair Isle twins. </p> <p>Let us know if the other one works.

I just got burgundy cords that should go well with this. I like how it's a kind of restrained fair isle.<br /></div><div><br /></div><div><b>abc</b>, we had two frigid years 2-3 years ago, and I have heavy knitwear from then. The past two winters have been more mild, though I do&nbsp; travel to freezing upstate NY in winter to visit my in laws, though not this year.. My current heavy items more than cover the need. <br /></div><br /><b>suntiger</b>, tell me about it. My office varies from 72-74 degrees right now. I need a warm layer but nothing too heavy.<br /><div><br /></div><div><b>Katerina</b>, thank you! I was please that I already had such a nice sweater that's in good shape and still looks good on me.<br /></div><div><br /></div><div><b>JAileen</b>, I hope you will hold out for something more fab!<br /></div></p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-wib-fair-isle-pullovers#post-1980141 Thu, 06 Dec 2018 17:33:07 +0000 JAileen 1980141@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the one you’re wearing. I hope the one you ordered works out.</p> <p>I ordered one from Nordstrom in a cream colorway. It’s okay, but not fabulous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-wib-fair-isle-pullovers#post-1980140 Thu, 06 Dec 2018 17:31:31 +0000 Katerina 1980140@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You look beautiful in this sweater, Christina.

The office can be freezing every day, till the day you wear something warm, then its broiling! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-wib-fair-isle-pullovers#post-1980116 Thu, 06 Dec 2018 17:07:38 +0000 Sara L. 1980116@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like your sweater with the stripes on the bottom of it.&nbsp; I really like the colors of the Lucky and I hope it works out for you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-wib-fair-isle-pullovers#post-1980114 Thu, 06 Dec 2018 17:05:16 +0000 abc 1980114@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't know if I've ever had a sweater like this, but I sure want one!&nbsp; I've got a case of the wantsies over here now.&nbsp; But like you, my climate really doesn't call for a heavy sweater that often (though lately we have had a few cold snaps, so that justifies it, right?!)</p> <p>Lovely collection you've got. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-wib-fair-isle-pullovers#post-1980109 Thu, 06 Dec 2018 16:58:51 +0000 Elizabeth P 1980109@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I really like the ones you already own, Christina.&nbsp; Lovely.&nbsp; Good luck with the new purchase! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-and-wib-fair-isle-pullovers#post-1980078 Thu, 06 Dec 2018 15:55:52 +0000 Christina F. 1980078@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p> <div><br /> It turns out I like fair isle and happened to wear some just yesterday! I wore this J Crew sweater from a couple of y ears ago yesterday. It has a sleek fit (I had to size down twice!). I don't often wear light colors but sometimes</p> <p>in the winter it feels nice. </p> <p></div><div><br /> </div><div>Of the finds below, I own the blue and pink striped sweater already, from LOFT. It's a few years old and showing its age, as it wasn't a high quality item to begin with. It's soft and comfy so it's staying around for now.</div><div><br /> </div><div>I also REALLY like the J Crew pullover Angie got! Alas, I think the knit is heavier than what I need (I have enough sweaters of that weight for my climate, which is only intermittently frigid). So I didn't buy it myself. I instead ordered this darker Lucky Brand one, instead, as part of my Christmas gifts "from" my mom (ie, "order yourself some stuff on my behalf"). I hope it's also not too heavy.</div><div><br /></div><div>ETA: I forgot about this grey LOF sweatshirt rhinestones in a kind of mock Fair Isle pattern! I need to wash it but hope to wear it soon for the Festive Challenge. It's one of my favorite winter pieces, even though I've gone off of grey somewhat.<br /></div><div></div> </p>
