A big "thanks!" to Fashion Dork (the beautiful blogger behind Fashion Dork) who shared with us images & details of an upcoming new arrival.The Metallic Beach Cardigan (Item 23159; $129.00) comes in two lovely shades: Metallic Silver & Metallic Camel. It is expected to be available this March or May.
What are your thoughts on the cardigan? Do you like the style & colors? Would you pre-order this cardigan?
I just saw this cardigan at the grand opening of J.Crew in Newark, DE. This is a really pretty cardi in person.
ReplyDeleteThe sweater is pretty but the colors remind me of Fall and not Spring.
ReplyDeleteSo far I like it, especially in the Metallic Camel. :)
ReplyDeletereminds me of the short sleeve cotton/linen cardigan i have from last spring, in the same gold-ish color!
ReplyDeleteLisa -- was the sweater soft? Whenever I see metallic threads I imagine it's very scratchy.
ReplyDeleteThis looks nice enough, but I'm more of a fan of metallics on accessories.
ReplyDeleteI wonder what makes JC describe an item as "beach"? I've gotten a couple things throughout the years described as such. One was a pair of heavyweight cotton lounge pants with a small pocket on one cheek, and those suckers have lasted a dog's age. Eight or nine years of constant rotation? Another was a cotton/spandex blend sweater, long sleeves, henley placket, and a hood. Very light and incredibly comfortable, I finally had to retire it when the off white got a huge stain on it that wouldn't budge. Though these wore great, I don't know what makes them beach when in a photo from the recent catalog had the model on the beach wearing the ethereal ruffle cardi which doesn't scream sand and surf to me.
Clicquot,
ReplyDeleteI thought the exact same thing! Metallic equals ichty in my book and I stay away from all metallic threads.
I did like the metallic tanks from Winter 08 b/c it was printed on silver or gold on the cotton.
These look very cute, I would be interested to know the scratchiness factor too.
ReplyDeleteCute style, but I'll have to see it in person. I usually reserve metallics for the holidays.
ReplyDeleteSeems a little pricey for "beach" (which I'm equating to lightweight/thin) sweater to me, but I look forward to seeing it in person!
ReplyDeleteI guess I'd have to see it in person and try it on. I don't have a lot of metallic in my wardrobe so who knows! it looks too dressy for the beach but I'd wear it around town.
ReplyDeleteJust saw these at my local b&m. Gorgeous in person, the metallic shimmer is not too much and it's very soft, not itchy at all. Both colors were nice, I got the camel as I have a lot of gray and silver. Definitely something to look at in real life (pictures don't do it justice)
ReplyDeletei bought both colors at the concept store in paramus, nj. it's a beautiful, versatile sweater!!
ReplyDeleteThis sweater is not itchy at all. I am definately going to get this when it goes on sale. It will give a basic outfit some additional pop! but it is subtle enough that it doesnt look like a Fall/Holiday sweater. I love it!!
ReplyDeleteI really like it, but I don't see any information about the fiber.
ReplyDeleteSat, 2 am PST, site update. I saw 764 items. It was 400-something at the end of Friday.
