What customers say:

Customers overwhelmingly praise the sweater for its soft cotton fabric, lightweight yet warm construction, and easy machine care. Many highlight the comfortable, breathable material that retains quality after washing and works year-round for transitional seasons. The versatile boxy silhouette with dropped shoulders appeals to most for casual-chic styling, though some note the fit runs large with excess sleeve and shoulder fabric. Reviewers frequently mention purchasing multiple colors and consider it a durable wardrobe staple. A few wish for deeper color options or experienced minor snags, but overall customers strongly recommend it.

Poor styling
I bought this in two sizes to see which one fit best. Neither one fit well. The shoulders have too much fabric in then and make the sweater look way too bulky. Returned them both.

Super oversized, ordered a large, huge. So I set that aside and ordered a medium. Also too huge. Since I had both sweaters here at once, I held them up and they were pretty much

Beautiful sweater, but - - -
This is a beautiful sweater, my favorite shade of blue and a perfect weight for cool weather. A very odd thing happened, though, when I washed it. I have to wash everything before

Nice new cotton sweater
Used for: Casual or Every Day
I bought the yellow. It is a pretty color. The fit is a little boxy but ok. Nice quality and substantial - good for spring - likely a little heavy for summer unless it is very cool
