WIW: Comic book cashmere

catgirl

Veteran

This cashmere sweater FINALLY went on sale and I could not resist it. I've been wearing it on weekends and get all kinds of funny positive attention. What do you think? I'm wearing it here with thrifted Big Star jeans - I know this much distressing is not loved by all, but it is good for me with my skinny hips. However, my hems were sopping wet and snowy, so it's back to skinnies for me again. *eyeroll*

As a comic book lover, I am super thrilled by that sweater! I think it looks great with those jeans.

Now I would like to see it under a suit in court.

It really does look great.

I swear you and MaryK can make even a comic book sweatshirt/sweater look FAB! I think the distressing gives it even more character- too bad about the wet hems.

I love comic/ anime inspiration and this is a relatively understated version - great look.

Love this. Great sweater. Perfect sweater for an UWP to kick a bit of booty in!! Really like it with the belt and booties. Did you try a boyfriend blazer over it? I think that would look sharp, but that's me and my blazer thing!!

Total love and adoration! This is fantastic!! I love how the POW plays against the grey. I could really use one of these...hmmmm....

Talk about a statement! What fun, and warm to boot.

Oh you little stinker! I love this sweater! I lusted after it at the beginning of the season. You look so fab in it and I like what you said about feminine empowerment etc. in another thread. This sweater just nails that feminine power home! If I get the sweater, I'd be totally backtracking to my Twisted Classic roots, and I'm supposed to be going all nude and natural for 2014. How to reconcile the two? sigh...

Citron and comics? Gotta love that!

Nordies just started carrying Big Star in petites, and I love them! They are owned by AG and are made in the same factory. Love. Hoping they put out some more bootcuts in Spring.

Funny, I don't think I've seen your hips since I joined YLF this Fall. You are tiny. I think this silhouette is great on you. More of this is a good thing!

Great sweater for you. So tempted to say shazam!

Holy Cashmere Batman! (Hmm, I guess holy cashmere isn't such a good thing.)

Fashion should be fun! This is definitely fun, but, styled simply, and in gorgeous cashmere, it goes way farther than a novelty tee!

I'm with Carter, your shape is made for this look and vice versa.

This works. Love the sweater and count me in on team distressed. I choose to call it, artful distressing.

That sweater says it all...POW! But for added effect, I will add a KA-POW! Love it

How come I don't know about Three Star jeans? They look super good on you. I love having horizontal whiskering to help my hips appear wider too. I think bootcuts are best on us ITs. You look very balanced here Una.
