I never thought in a million years I would pay $135 sweatshirt, but I did with J. Crew's new Haya sequin knit. Of course I used my white card which softened the blow, but I almost couldn't justify it. I have been on a bit of a sequin and sparkle hunt, so this was a must-purchase for me. I had run from the gym to my son's soccer game last night and threw it on so I did not look like a complete mess and I got so many compliments on top of the fact that it picked up the setting sun and was absolutely gorgeous. I am going to layer it tonight and wear boots to a party. It has become a favorite in my Fall wardrobe. J. Crew describes as:
"Casual comfort meets glitzy glamour. We used a twisted cotton yarn and a special knitting technique to achieve this highly sought-after vintage heathered effect, then bedecked the front with allover sequins. The easiest way to dress up jeans or broken-in chinos, it also looks great peeking from beneath a blazer paired with a pencil skirt and sky-high heels. Cotton. Crewneck. Long sleeves. Part of J.Crew Collection."
Any thoughts on this piece? Are you tied of sequins in their Collection or regular items? Happy Fall...
take some pics when you get it!!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE this sweatshirt, but couldn't justify the price even with 25% off. It hurt to leave it behind, though. I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that they'll run a promo before the 25% card expires or it will still be around in my size after markdowns.
ReplyDeleteLooks a lot like the sequined Jaspe I got this spring - such a fun piece - I get mondo compliments whenever I wear it. And it's way comfy, too!
ReplyDeleteIt's a lovely sweatshirt! Enjoy wearing it!
