Recently in Sweaters Category

I don't know what's going on lately, but I've been shopping at the Gap.  Like I said before, I haven't really frequented it for several years, since my early 20s probably, because I've had this perception in my head that it was too cheap.  Well, I guess I've become a frugal fashionista because I've been checking them out lately and liking what I see.

I got this great sweater last weekend: Drape Front Cardigan ($69.50).  It's almost sold out online, but they still have it in stores.  The fabric is a wonderful blend of cotton, silk and modal, so it's super soft and a great weight for layering in the Summer.  The half length sleeves and floppy look make it just great for a casual but not bumish-looking layer.

The reason I even went in was because of the cardmember thank you sale, an extra 25% off anything... and I have the BR card, so it works at the Gap too.  So the sweater was only $52.13.

Anna Sui Tiger Cardigan
April 12, 2010

Among the new arrivals from Anna Sui at revolveclothing is this quirky sweater: Anna Sui James Coviello Tiger Cardi in Cream, $383.

I've always liked Asian motifs like the tiger and dragon.  This particular tiger has such a cute face - BUT would I want to wear it?  And if so, would I pay $383 for it?  I doubt it.  (If I had a bigger clothing budget I might get it just for that cute face and wear it around the house...)
