**First Impressions:** Unboxing this sweatshirt, I immediately noticed the soft, fleecy interior—like being hugged by a cloud! The dark pink color (mine was 'Burgundy') was richer in person than online. No pockets (sigh), but the oversized fit made up for it—perfect for leggings or even over a baby bump (shoutout to pregnant reviewers!).

**Material & Warmth:** The cotton-polyester blend is thicker than expected, ideal for crisp fall days or layered under a coat in winter. It’s not *Arctic-expedition* warm, but I stayed toasty during dog walks at 45°F. After 3 washes? Minimal pilling, and the color hasn’t faded—win!

**Style Points:** The 1/4 zip and drop shoulders give it that 'effortlessly cool' vibe. I dressed it up with faux-leather leggings + ankle boots for brunch, then down with joggers for WFH. Pro tip: Zip it halfway + pop the collar for instant '90s nostalgia.

**Gripes?** That new-clothes chemical smell lingered after washing (gone by wash #2). Also, sizing: If you want *dramatically* oversized, size up—my usual Medium had a relaxed-but-not-swallowing-me fit.

**Final Verdict:** At ~$35, it’s a solid dupe for pricier brands (looking at you, Alo). Not perfect (RIP, dream pockets), but I’m eyeing the sage green next. 4.5/5 stars—knocked half a star for the smell and non-stretchy fabric.
