I am oddly drawn to this sweater, seems very cozy, like I should wear it and sit by the fireplace while sipping my hot chocolate (can ya tell I'm ready for fall/winter, hehe):
No! stay away unless you are a supermodel. Even if you are a supermodel, the pom-poms need to go! Sometimes if there is something i'm not sure about, i'll ask my very hip husband what he thinks. When it comes to overly funky wears, a man's opinion can be useful. Just sometimes, not all of the time.
Unless you are pretty tall, I would stay away. I've noticed that longer length sweaters like that can make short girls look really squat and frumpy. It's ok, but I don't like those pom poms.
I can definitely see its cozy yet sexy appeal. However, I can't take the pompoms. I agree that it'd look best on a tall skinny person and would be hard to pull off otherwise.
It's one of those tops that you just have to try on. It won't work for everyone but that doesn't mean it won't work for you. Makes me want to go out in the snow....... I love fall/winter. Post a pic if you get it!
I like the shape, but I'm part of the anti-pom gang. I think they'd be really annoying at that length...they'd hit your knees when you walk and fly up with each step. Or atleast that's what I imagine would happen. Depending on the price, maybe you could just lop those buggers off the end?
I am so excited about fall/winter too, FP and Rar210!! I think this sweater would look great on you, FP. You have the perfect style personality to rock this look.
i feel like on your petite frame it would overwhelm you and it would "wear" you vs. you wearing it. if you are in love with it, i would do a belt to break it up a bit.
