Yeah sweaters! Living in the Pacific Northwest, one does accumulate sweaters. Here are three of my current favrourites.
First up is this sweater from ASOS. This just arrived 2 days before Halloween. It has the strangest short, boxy fit. The first larger one I ordered could have fit 2 of me in it. I still love it though, I have several skeleton shirts, but they are all printed and this is woven.
I've had this 80's cat sweater for ages. It is unflattering on me, but I still wear it. To me is says "Let's to to Sears and get our portrait done".
Last is my skull sweater from Modcloth. I try to limit my wearing of it so those around me do not get sick of it. The skirt I'm wearing with it just arrived from Modcloth as well. Nowhere is the description said it was a knit fabric - and it is super form fitting, even though I went one size up. I think I look like a sausage about to burst, but my boyfriend gave it thumbs up.
i love them all especially the skeleton one..all the sweaters looks good on you..i love it when sweaters like really fits on you instead of bulking here and there..yours fits awesomely
ReplyDeleteI love the skeleton jumper! I know what you mean about the skirt, I don't like tight skirts either, although I am told I look fine in them. I think you look fine, but if you don't feel comfortable, maybe add some fabric in at the sides to make it more a-line? or graft the front onto a more a-line skirt? You can definitely pull it off though, I think it would just look better with a less patterned top part.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the ideas! I took a look at the skirt tonight and I'm going to open up the back seam and insert a stretch lace kick pleat. :)
DeleteI love the skeleton sweater and the skirt! I didn't know about Modcloth before your post, but it looks like one hell of a money dump... *checks bank account*
ReplyDeleteSometimes you can find some of Modcloth's items for cheaper on Ebay or elsewhere. I think you are paying a markup for their cuteness.
DeleteYou have very cool sweaters! I wish I had one with cats on :D
ReplyDeleteOh the kitty sweaters I've seen from this theme! Love them!!!

ReplyDeleteOh, your sweaters are so great! Love the cat themed one most, obviously... (-:
