I was totally considering the purchase this sweater the other day, but wasn’t sure how versatile it was! Boy, did you prove me wrong. Hopefully they still have it in stock, because I’m loving your outfits, especially Bold and Trendy. :)

Love your outfits but I’m more of a stripe obsessive :) I’ll just swap the jumper for one of my many striped ones!
WL
Love the first 2 outfits!

I’m trying to incorporate more polka dots into my wardrobe, so this is perfect! I might just have to buy the metallic tweed jacket too…. ;)
Katha

The first outfit is great. However, I would probably not wear a sweater like this. For me it’s more something for people in their (late) teens.
