First, I got the Border Stripe V Neck sweater, which looks kind of hideous on the model (what are those bottoms they put on her?!). But I thought it had potential to look cute if it was not oversized like how it fits the model. It is now on sale from $99 to $44. I actually paid $59 for it, but I just got a price adjustment. This seems to happen to me a lot at Nordstrom. I almost always end up getting price adjustments on every order! So I think it literally pays to check back.
I got size XS, and it's still kind of a loose fit. I am torn about this sweater. First, it is thick. I don't really like thick sweaters, especially for LA. Second, it is high/low style and since the material is heavy, the back kind of pulls the sweater backwards which makes the front even shorter. I'm afraid I may have to keep adjusting it throughout the day if I were to wear it. I do like the design though!
If you look closely, there are these decorative open stitch design on the bottom and the sides:
I think I'm going to sit on it and think about it for a while.
The next sweater I got is the Two by Vince Camuto Honeycomb Stitch V Neck sweater, and it is only $31 now, down from $79. I also just got a price adjustment for it since I paid $46 when I ordered. I thought the pop of color on this sweater was fun, and I really like the fit!
Again, I don't think these model pics do this sweater justice:
This sweater is thinner than the one above. I also got it in XS, and I think the fit is perfect. It's quite roomy, and super comfortable. I'm happy it's not another high/low style, which I'm not a super fan of.
Here are some close ups of the pop of color on the collar and bottom:
Lastly, I got this Vince Camuto Argyle Eyelash Fringe sweater from Hautelook/Nordstrom Rack. It's kind of funny that it's sold at the "discount" store, and yet its price is $44 which is just about the same as the first sweater above, which is from the regular Nordstrom store. I guess the discount store is not really that much discounted after all.
I thought this sweater looked cute on the model. I like that the sleeves have those big open mesh and is a different color than the rest of the sweater. I also got it in size XS and same as the other two, it is a rather large fit.
I didn't realize how "fuzzy" this sweater was going to be! I'm not sure if I can get over that. Otherwise, I do like the fit and the design. I just feel like a big fuzz ball in it.
So I think this one is getting returned, even though it's kind of cute still.
I think I'm going to stop buying sweaters now! Lol. It's been super hot here, and will only be getting hotter in the next many months. I don't know why I'm stocking up on sweaters and scarves. But at least these sweaters were all on sale for pretty decent prices! I can definitely still wear them during cooler nights here, and also at my office which is always cold.
I really love that second sweater on you! But how do those sweaters look SO LONG on those models!? Confusing.
ReplyDeleteYeah I don't know. I think they are wearing 2 sizes too big lol. I'm only 5'5.. I'd assume that's at least a few inches shorter than the models.
