I’ve never had the nerve to ask anyone if they notice exactly how many pieces of clothing I own in multiple colors. I can’t help myself. When I find something I like, it’s easier just to buy it in multiples or I inevitably end up regretting it. THE LIMITED is pretty much always having a perpetual sale, no exaggeration, whether in store or online, and so I found these contrast sweaters for a buy 1, get 1 free deal last week and grabbed both purple and red.
The sweaters themselves are a thin blend of wool and acrylic, have 3/4 length sleeves and are rather plain. I like plain as, for me, that usually translates to versatile, and I like being able to dress a piece up or down without giving it too much thought. The sweater looks good on its own but could also easily be worn under a suit jacket (though the cute little sleeve cuff wouldn’t show).
Also, before I forget, it’s worth noting that I’m not sensitive to wool and therefore did not find this sweater to be even a bit itchy. Unfortunately, there are likely some people who will find the wool uncomfortable against their skin.
If you have any questions, feel free to leave me a comment. If you have a suggestion for styling these sweaters, I beg you to do the same.
EDIT: This is how I actually wore the red sweater, with a polka dot cardigan by Cupio over the top.
