Keep or Return - Another two tops

Astrid

Another two tops I ordered arrived today. Both were on sale.

#1 Striped knit sweater. It's a thin knit and I think it would be comfortable to wear in warmer temperatures. Do you think it looks too big?

#2 I like the idea of the top and the color is nice, but I think it looks too big on me.

I think I would return the top and keep the sweater. What do you think? The smaller size is sold out in both cases.

I really like the knit sweater on you and I love the mix of blue and black - this is a new favorite color combo of mine. I think it looks wonderful on you. I think the other top is okay but I'm not sure about the color.

I totally agree with you Astrid - I love the striped sweater on you but not crazy about the fit on the tank.

#1 is a lovely summery sweater. Keep!

#2 I'm not sure --- a side view there may have helped. I really like the colour and shimmery pattern with your lovely peaches & cream complexion...

Both of these seem to have a slouchier fit, even on the modals. It all depends what you want. The first sweater could be more fitted but it's not bad as it is. Love the style and colors. The tank provides a lovely dose of daytime sparkle and would be super cute peeking out from beneath a denim jacket.

Love that sweater, looks great. I like Claire's idea for the sprkle top.

Keep the sweater; it's fab. Return the tan-- I think it may be a problem with the length causing it to scrunch; at any rate, it doesn't look like it fits correctly; it doesn't hang smoothly.

I like the sweater.
You can always try the shimmery top as a vest, and over a buttoned shirt, to see if it would work. I also like Claire's idea.

i love the sweater and it looks like it fits just like on the model. Same with the tank, but I'm not sure about the color of it on you.

I think the sweater is great! The tank is maybe too long?

I agree with your asessment on both. I really want to love the tank but don't. The sweater is great!

The sweater is great -- unless you think it will stretch in the wash. The size is fine now and would look okay 1/2 size smaller, but I wouldn't want it to get any bigger.

I don't think that the tank is too big - but it is a little long.

LOVE the Breton stripes!

Thanks everybody! I'm glad the sweater gets so much love, I like it too! I tried the tank over a blouse, but it doesn't really work because the fabric is so stretchy. I think I'm going to return it, I just don't feel great in it.
