I finally gave in and bought it
Okay, I thought it was too expensive and tried to talk myself out of this ... weeks. ... wanted to own a long ... looked good and I could throw on over leggings, skinny jeans or whatever when I really don't want to show my rear end to the general public. In other words, when there is no time for a belt and spanks and yada yada yada. This is it. It's exactly that. It's pretty, not frumpy. I was a bit concerned about frumpy baggy sweaters. Covers my tush. Can't wait to add boots to the equation. One note: these guys aren't exactly speedy Gonzales on the shipping and I do think this ... $25 too expensive.
Best ... my closet!
Love this ... actually went to the Fashion Island store to try on several of the sweaters before purchasing this one. I found that the quality of this ... surpassed all the others. I ended up ordering online since I needed time to decide on the color. I purchased the olive color, the purple was a little too vibrant and grey a littlle dull. I am 5ft. 8 " and weigh 120 lbs. the extra small fits perfect! Hugs you in all the right places. I usually wear ... small ... find this particular ... ran 1/2 ... larger than the others I tried on. Greatest buy for this season.
Different than pictured, much nicer in person
I was really worried about ordering this since it looked a little like granny's old ... online. I was wrong. Very figure flattering and cute. Looks great on my daughter and my middle aged self. I always wear a small in jackets or zip front sweaters and sometimes worry if it will fit my upper half since I wear a 34DDD. I usually wear a medium in tops, large in workout tops, and medium in pants if that helps. It's stretchy, so don't be afraid to order a ... down. I ordered this in the olive expecting it to be more brownish like other olive things from athleta. The color is half the earth green (see drishti dress for a good example) and half olive mixed and has small purple squares mixed into the pattern at the end of the sleeves and at the bottom (very subtle and almost didn't notice). It's very warm and heavy and well made. If only it came in black.
Great fit and knit is worth $$
Love the fit, design and quality of this ... I'm 5'5", 123 lbs, an A cup and the XS fits perfectly with a thin layer underneath and either leggings or skinny jeans. Also love the zippered pockets and two way front zipper! Athleta - keep making sweaters, jackets and vests with two way zippers....they're there for those who love em and no need to use them if you don't love em...win win!
Love it !
When I opened my package it was a love from the first sight. This ... lovely in fit and design as well. I hope there will be more great sweaters like this in the future and I will definitely buy it again.
LOVE IT - ... does run big.
LOVE, LOVE this ... fortunate enough to purchase it on one of the sale days. Ordered the grape in a Med and the mercury in a Large knowing i'd keep one. The Medium fit me fine and even had a little room (i'd be a bit nervous to return for a small, ... small might possible work). Definitely runs large! (i'm a 36 D, 5 ft 5, weigh 140 lbs. and as i said the medium even has some room to wear long sleeves under it, etc. The Grape color looks great with black leggings and boots. i'm almost tempted to exchange the mercury for a medium ... so i have 2 of them - i like it that much! Would have gotten 5 stars had the sizing been correct.
spooner summit. I have 2 the same ... one is bigger!
I have the mercury and ordered a jam color one that just arrived. They are botth ... smaill and one is bigger than the other. How can that be??? Also, the mercury one, which actually fits...the zipper kept sticking so I had to send it back. Now the jam one that just arrived is too small. This seems like a lot of work....ordering and returning for silly reasons that shouldn't be. I've spent over $1k in clothing at Athleta lately, and I'm rethinking the brand. Items are arriving wet in the package, zippers stick, same sizes are very inconsistent.
