Delayed sweater order from Nordstrom arrived, so I thought I’d share:

- the striped Vince Camuto —
I like this a lot. It’s basic and a little classic for me, but for a jeans-sweater-jacket ensemble, it will be perfect.
Imagine it under my cobalt or dark teal moto jackets, or the new seafoam green puffer. It’s soft and lightweight, the quality feels good for the price point, no itch, and the colors are perfect for me. Crew necks are not my most favorite, but I will wear them if every other detail makes me happy. And sometimes I like a higher neckline under jackets. Apologies for not styling — just threw it on with my joggers (which actually works).

- metallic knit-front sweater - I didn’t even take photos. It was surprisingly short in the body, even though otherwise it fit ok. Returning. Someday I will find my metallic sweater, but it’s not this one. Maybe next year!

- black and lavender stripe turtleneck -It’s soft and cozy, and not heavy at all. No itch, not even on the turtleneck, which I usually can’t abide anymore unless it’s a loose one like this. I like the colors and the style very much. The quality is probably not for massive longevity, but I don’t expect that of a $60 sweater. The hem has one of those edges that rolls up slightly, but that’s not a deal-breaker — it’s a little RATE. And the sleeves wrinkle a little with wear. I like that it’s different from my other sweaters, and that the stripes give it a bit of a sporty vibe. It would probably look better with bootcut jeans. What do you think of this one?
