Let me start by saying this sweater is an absolute dream to touch. The lightweight crochet material feels like a cloud against your skin - no itchiness at all! I wore it on a coffee date with jeans and got three compliments before I even got my latte.
The V-neck design is flattering without being too revealing, though you'll need to be mindful of what you wear underneath due to the crochet details (I paired mine with a simple camisole). The cable knit pattern adds such elegant texture that makes it stand out from basic sweaters.
Now about sizing - listen carefully! This runs BIG. I typically wear medium but could have easily gone with small. The arms especially have extra room (though the sleeve length was perfect for my 5'8" frame). If you're between sizes or prefer a snugger fit, size down.
Where this sweater shines is versatility. I've worn it to:
- Casual Fridays at work with slacks
- Weekend brunches with leggings
A few drawbacks:
- Requires hand washing (learned this the hard way after minor pilling)
- The white is BRIGHT white (not off-white as some photos suggest)
- Stretches slightly after multiple wears
Final verdict? For the price, this is a fantastic wardrobe staple that transitions beautifully between seasons. Just size down, hand wash gently, and prepare for compliments!
