The pullover sweater

Sunnies: TOMS | Scarf: The Fashion Lane (c/o)(in cranberry) | Necklace: CS Gems (use code CARYLEE15 for 15% off) | Bag: Rebecca Minkoff | Top: Express | Sweater: GapBottoms: Gap | Booties: Rag & Bone (budget option)

I realized I have a hole in my wardrobe when it comes to pullover sweaters. The few that I do have aren't solid colored, or they are thinner and not conducive to layering. So, during Black Fridayweek, I was on a hunt for the perfect one. These cotton sweaters from Gap got a lot of good reviews, so I took a chance and ordered three of them. I sized up based on a few reviews and based on how it looked on the model. I'm thinking I could have just gone with my regular Gap size, but I still like them just the same!

It's kind of funny because the night these sweaters arrived in the mail, the husband walked into the closet room as I was trying them on. He said (genuinely not sarcastically), "Wow! You look really nice!" I was a little surprised since it's just a basic pullover with a little bit of a boyfriend fit nonetheless, but it's amazing the things our significant others can like!

Speaking of like, more like LOVE - I tried these jeans based on a rec from Rachelle, and she was totally right. The fit is perfect and they are super, super soft. This won't be my last pair!

    I'm always on a hunt for new knits every time the weather starts to cool, I have never found the perfect one yet, although some have come close!

  4. I think that sweater is a great find--perfect for layering but also cute on its own I'm sure. Love the mix of two plaids too! I know, I'm surprised too at the things my husband says he likes (or notices)! :)
