Hi guys,

I fell in love with my drapey cardigan that I ended up wearing so much through the winter/spring. Like here and here and here!

Now that it's warming up I'm searching for a short or sleeveless summery version that I can wear through an Aussie summer (obviously not on 40°C days!!) I'm thinking maybe a simple knit cotton or jersey to keep it cool.

I've only looked on-line so far. Here's a few I've come across. Has anyone seen/tried these on. Especially interested in hearing how "lightweight" they are given that they are being sold during a Northern hemisphere winter season I worry that these ones might be too warm!

http://www.express.com/catalog.....egoryId=20 - 100% cotton, but is it light cotton? Would elbow sleeves be too warm?

http://www.express.com/catalog.....egoryId=20 - Rayon/Nylon/Synthetic/Cashmere - too warm? plus this style looks like it may have TOO MUCH volume

http://www.tulle4us.com/tulle/knits/C9211/ - looks very lightweight. I'd be worrying about sizing though - if they run small I think I would need XL and it is sold out in the purple

http://www.anntaylorloft.com/c.....pe=Regular - wool & polyester = too warm???

http://www.anntaylorloft.com/c.....pe=Regular - Viscose, Cotton, Nylon, Wool - again too warm??

Finally I love the one Angie has put in the new ylf store, but it looks way too warm and toasty!

I'm hoping to go to a mall here tomorrow or the next day to see if any Aussie shops are selling anything like too.

Thanking you shopping & internet sleuths
