THURSDAY TRY ON SESSION FROM THE LOFT

Most of you know that I LOVE wearing color, but I have been all about neutrals this winter. I have embraced black into my wardrobe, and all of its siblings, gray, navy, maroon, and tan. Just when I thought that I had lost my love for color, Spring Fever set in on me. I logged onto The Loft’s website and was immediately thrilled when I saw all of these gorgeous colored tops that could be worn now and also in the spring. So, I hope you enjoy today’s try-on session, and if you want to “hear” me talk about the item, you can find them later today on my Instastories.
To give everyone an idea of how things fit, I am 5’6″ tall, and I weigh around 155+ pounds. I usually wear a size 10 in pants, and 12 in dresses, and a medium or a large in tops. Let’s start this party with a bright and cheery lemon-colored sweater. The sweater features a Pointelle design and ribbing of the hem, collar, and sleeves. The sweater is a relaxed boxy style, and it is very soft. I love the mock-turtleneck collar and the shorter length that is perfect for wearing with high waist jeans. I am wearing a size medium, and this fits perfectly. This sweater is machine washable and on sale for 50% off.

Dusty Lemon Pointelle Sweater

This is another soft sweater that feels wonderful. I was enamored of the greenish/blue color of the sweater, and I am a sucker for a cable-knit design. This sweater is a slim fit, and it is quite a bit smaller than the lemon sweater above.
I like the contrasting ribbed pattern of the neckline, cuffs, and hem beside the cable-knit design. I think that this sweater is versatile enough that you will wear be able to wear it with a ton of pants and skirts. It is machine washable, comes in a couple of other colors, and is on sale for 50% off.

Ribbed Yoke Sweater

Florals are not something that I usually wear. I like flowers, but I am not a huge fan of wearing them on my clothing. But, this twist-top appealed to me, and I like how it looks and feels. A deep v-neckline is always a plus in my book because it helps to create a longer and leaner neck.

The top features a high-low hem that is also flattering to most people. The rounded hem in the front creates a thinner look, while the top hugs your hips. I wanted to give you an up-close photo so that you could see all fo the different colors. It has pink, lilac, ivory, turquoise, yellow, and gray, all combined for a beautiful top. I am wearing a medium, and the top is machine washable.

Floral Twist Top

This cranberry shell is super cute, and it has a surprise that you will see in the next photo. I love this top and can see it being worn under a cardigan or blazer for now, but later with shorts and capris. But, I think that this top runs small. I ordered a medium, and I feel that this is too small for me. It is tight under the arms and through the chest.
See how cute the top is from the back! I loved the peplum look and the button back. But, as you can see from this photo, the buttons are pulling, and you can see my extra back fat. ? The top is machine washable, but remember to size up.

Button Back Shell

I already have a similar cardigan in a merlot color, and I loved it so much that I ordered this one in white for spring and summer. I always need a white cardigan in the spring, so I grabbed this one. The large shawl lapel is what I love, plus the way that the cardigan hugs your hips.
One of the things that I like about this cardigan over the merlot one that I already had, it that this one has pockets! Woohoo! Am I the only one who gets excited when my clothing has pockets? Lol! I know that it is still cold outside for most of us, but when spring rolls around, you are going to wish that you had taken advantage of this cardigan at 50% off! And, yes, it is machine washable.

White Cozy Cardigan

This magenta v-neck pullover is perfect for now and later. The relaxed style of this pullover will be great for layering with a button-up shirt, or for wearing under a cardigan or jacket. It is lightweight so that it won’t add a lot of bulk to either of those items.

The sweater has dropped shoulders, and a side split that helps to create the relaxed style of this pullover. This is going to be a versatile item that you will wear over and over and over. I am wearing a medium, which fits me great. Like everything else that I have shown you today, this is machine washable and on sale for 50% off.

V-Neck Pullover Sweater

 

This is the last item for the day. I started with a bright yellow sweater, and I am ending with a bright yellow sweater. Lol! You know that I have loved Fairisle sweaters this year, and this bright sweater begged to come home with me. I love the oversized look of the sweater; it is relaxed but not huge. And, the large turtleneck is warm and cozy on these cold winter days. This color might not be for everyone, but you all have to agree that it sure looks bright and cheery.
I already have big plans for this sweater, and I can see myself wearing this with a lot of different pants. I am supposed to travel to Atlanta this weekend to see my sister, so I think that this needs to come along with me. Do you think that I need to wear this sweater with dark jeans, gray jeans or pants, or white pants? I know what I am going to pick, but let’s see how well you know me. Lol!

This is like all of the other sweaters, it is a medium, it is machine washable, and it is on sale for 50% off!
