I wanted something warm and soft. It needed to be grey. It needed to be attractive. It needed to be classic so that it could last through a few years. It needed to be of reasonably good quality for the same reasons.
I shopped everywhere. Kohls, Macy’s, Nordstrom, JCPenny, H&M, Banana Republic…you name it I looked. I just couldn’t find what I wanted.
Then came a timely email from Goode Rider with a free shipping code.
Because I can be a bit thrifty, I headed to the sale section first. I saw a bunch of things I didn’t want. Then I saw the sweater.
Ding! With a few clicks it was purchased. In a few days, it was here.
I was very impressed with the lovely wool/nylon/cashmere blend yarn used. Super cozy! I thought the double breasted design was adorable and loved the cable design (especially on the back).
I threw away “high school sweater” and put this in its place in the closet.
It’s not quite as flattering on as I’d hoped it would be (I ordered a size too large), but it does look better than “old high school sweater” and it is my new go-to when the weather turns a little chilly!
