Rag & Bone vs Everyone

Well...if they say "imitation is the best form of flattery"
                                                                   Rag & Bone must really be feeling the love.....

Their Talia v-neck sweater has been imitated SO many times it is ridiculous!

It is a great sweater I must say,  and I'll admit I'm actually wearing a knock off version of it by Derek Heart I picked up for 8 bucks at Rue21 as I write this post.  Although I do feel some type of way about knocking off designer pieces, in reality we all can't afford R&B prices.

Excuse the tired expression.  I working with a stiff neck here...

So while browsing around on Asos.com  I wasn't too surprised coming  across this.

This is Vero Moda's Varsity Style Long Line Sweater.  I will admit...I do like it just a tad more than the R&B despite the absence of the deep V neckline which I'm quite fond of.  

I like the length, added stripes on the hem and that it's 100% cotton.   I also like the price.  $47.38

,,,,,what an odd price.....

Give Me Lots O Sweaters! Thick Nordic Warm Sweaters!!

I'm a sweater junkie.  I have a lot.  Not a ridiculous number that's just unmanageable, but perhaps too many to pull out every winter.   Lately I've been all about quality 80's style sweaters from the thrifts.  I don't care how much I look like I just stepped out of "She's One of the Guys" ....one of my favorite 80's movies btw.

Anthropologie's offering this beautiful Barnegat Pullover by Knitted and Knotted for $98

Sweater Etcetera

Man I love a good sweater.  I'm aware that the last night I praised on it was pretty much the same color as this one by McQ, however different detail.

                                                      I love a good cable knit sweater

and this one has all that I could ask for and more.  I'm normally not a fan of any kind of asymmetrical design, but this one doesn't irritate me as much as others have in the past.  I'm pretty sure it has to do with the knit.


So Goregous.... gotta have it!...which means I gotta wait for a sale!

The Beautiful Things

Well, well, well.. seems Swell.com has done it again.  This is Rip Curl's Indiana Sweater.

I absolutely adore this wrap.  I've recently become a fan of the "fair isle" print (thank you Victoria's Secret) and have been looking for a cute sweater with the print for a while.

Hhhmmm.  Gotta act fast tho.  This one went from $66 to $52.99 and it's only available in two sizes.



I think I can squeeze make a medium work!

Hells Yeah!!

I'm a sweater junky.  Always looking for the next best thing so when I came across this striped sweater from Heritage 1981 for only $24.90!!!!  I'll say it again....$24.90!!!!  it was a no-brainer as to whether I was gonna buy it or not.

DUH!!!

It's perfect in length, color, sex appeal for me and it's 100% cotton!  No acrylic.. hate the stuff.  So hard is it to find a sweater that's not too boring but not too over the top and actually be flattering. I am in love!

Oh My My!

I've never been one to hop on the fringe bandwagon.  I always thought it looked too "hippie/ I haven't washed my hair in weeks" -like,  but this Portola Sweater Wrap from Billabong has swayed me otherwise.

Despite my...about 25% Native American background I didn't see myself sporting anything this cultural either.  I am in love with this wrap!  The design, the colors, the pockets and yes... even the fringe.  I'm all over this one!

$79.00 @ Lulus.com

Showing Some Skin

Me..a surfer?   Hahaha year right!  I have however been browsing Swell.com and came across this Matix Ghost Dance sweater.



I dig the laid back, relaxed style of it.  Not to mention the way it lifts in the front to show just a bit of belly.



Hhhhmmm Thinking about it. It is a possibility.
$62.00 @ Swell.com
