You had to know this was coming, right? After all, what’s the point of doing my Black Friday/Cyber Monday shopping if I’m not going to share it here, right? Truth be told though, I actually didn’t enter a single store at all that weekend. I did all of my shopping from my couch and my Ebates, Giving Assistant, and Wynk accounts thanked me for that one.
I’ve rediscovered my love for LL Bean and our affair is going strong now. This top is nice and thick, plus the marled knit gives it a fun flair. The sweater was a little looser than I was expecting, but truthfully, I’m completely okay with that.
Verdict: Keep
Verdict: Keep
Left: J.Crew Striped Suede-Shoulder T-Shirt (XS)
I tried this shirt on in pink a few weeks back, but I just wasn’t digging it. When I came across the gray/blue version in stores though, my mom and I both agreed that it was much better. During their black friday sale it dropped down to $17, so there was no stopping me.
Verdict: Keep (cause I like it and because the final sale policy says so)
Um, so yes, I just got this in navy and white as a present, but I couldn’t resist sizing up for a looser fit and trying the black based one. Disappointly (for my wallet) it fit just as well and I loved it. The looser fit helped give the shirt a little more of a relaxed vibe but still kept it fun. I’m going to sit on this for a little while to make my decision though.
Verdict: Undecided
Forget what I said about the J.Crew Factory cable knit, this is my real winner. The fabric was the much thicker cotton that I prefer and it had a lose but incredibly comfortable fit. I can finally replace my navy and black sweaters!
Verdict: Keep
While the fabric was so soft and cozy, the fit was a little too bulky for my liking. I did realize that they have a more fitted version of this shirt though, so I may try out that one.
Verdict: Return
This top was flannel, but it wasn’t as thick as the LL Bean version. It had a looser fit as you can see. I really liked it, but I just wasn’t in love with it.
Verdict: Return
Verdict: Return
My old lady seriously came out when I tried this dress on. Cause holy moly this dress was short. I think I would have needed an extra inch on this dress to make me happy. That being said, the fabric was incredibly soft and it had pockets!
Verdict: Return, too short.
I was so tempted to try this top during the summer, but I couldn’t justify it for the $40. It dropped down to $14 over Cyber Monday so I decided to try it out. Unfortunately, I’m just not cool enough for this top. Also, I couldn’t really lift my arms up, so that wasn’t much fun.
Verdict: Return
