Wearing 10/28/2011 and the Honeycomb Cable Sweater Review

Today, I'm wearing one of my purchases from the recent 25% off promo...the Honeycomb Cable Sweater.  It comes in a beautiful array of colors and is to the heavy-side of medium weight.  It's a bit boxy, so I sized down for a better fit. 

Word of warning....it's a shedder!!  I had thrown my black wool bella on for my commute to work.  When I took bella off, she was covered in camel colored fuzz.  Yikes...Good thing I keep a lint roller in my desk.  Nevertheless, I still think this sweater is a keeper and I am contemplating purchasing it in other colors.

For today's outfit, I layered my striped tee under "Sir-Shed's-A Lot" and topped it with my leopard print scarf.  I added black jeans and some super cute J Crew ballet flats.  I received several compliments today on this outfit but the best came from my seventeen year old son.  As I was headed out the door this morning, my son said, "You look cute."   Awwww....warms a mother's heart!

  1. I love the look, and much more your son's compliment!
    I dry my hair straight, just because my oldest son likes best. Only a compliment coming from my children, is worth more than ten compliments of my DH! It makes my day :o)
    So funny!

  3. Love the honeycomb sweater on you! I just tried it on today and really like it--now just to decide on which color! The comment from your son is SO sweet! Esp. b/c he's 17--kinda unexpected! I hope my boy stays that sweet (he's only 7 now)!
