And the yoga cardi - I always joke with dina about how I'm a brick and she's a pear...and this is a good example. <br /><br />mrs.anktell - wait until I post the long beach cardi pics...I think it's a winner!! (too much good tv tonight, so will post tomorrow)<br /><br />Suzy - I bet that scalloped cardi is perfect on you! Can't wait to see pics of the color combos with the camp cardi. And it probably is a perfect sweater for Richmond summers - I just didn't love it on me buttoned up - but I imagine it looks great open with some of those fab tanks. Looking forward to seeing you sometime soon!!<br /><br />Summerilla - we can all keep an eye out for a potential sale on the yoga cardi...HeidiGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17335791412412897005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6871738287043527278.post-56078941923716123652010-02-04T14:37:54.811-05:002010-02-04T14:37:54.811-05:00I really wanted the merino-linen sweater but I thi...I really wanted the merino-linen sweater but I think after your review I will pass. I don’t want my tummy ripples showing! I do like the scalloped zipper cardigan too but I had worries it would be to short on me. The cashfeel kyla long yoga cardi is gorgeous! But I agree maybe on sale it would be a better buy for sure - $88 is a bit much.Summerillahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09103974633867486026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6871738287043527278.post-45283753615427625282010-02-03T21:18:21.036-05:002010-02-03T21:18:21.036-05:00Hi Heidi!!!

I have it, and I like it with the longer tee underneath. I just love that little sweater/sweatshirt so much I couldn't find anything wrong with it. Maybe I have difficulty being as objective??? I'll have to take a photo and post so you can let me know. Also, you're making me nervous b/c I bought that linen cardigan in the light/greyish color yesterday, AND I also bought that Tissue Tier Tank in the sweet guave color as well as the Tissue Garland Tank in dark pewter (b/c I liked the catalog pic too!) and I bought the scarf in the watercolour potpourri print to wear with them (even the SA said "What a great mix of items that all go together!). Hahaha - and why am I telling you all of this? B/c I haven't tried them on yet! And now I'm afraid to! But I'll let you know. I'll admit that the thinness of that sweater concerned me too, but with shorts or a summer skirt I might like it? We'll see! Good to "see" you - hope to meet with you again soon - and with Dina! Take care!Suzyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14708653277798146489noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6871738287043527278.post-29907008594092816202010-02-03T20:49:58.209-05:002010-02-03T20:49:58.209-05:00Love the pearl jackie------a very classic pick.

The Camp - that button on the sleeve is very off-putting. It looks very out-of-place with the sleeves at their normal length, like something growing out of your arm. And who wants that?! :p So I guess, rolled up is the only way to go with this bad boy. Whatever happened to versatility? *sigh*<br /><br />The Scalloped Zipper Cardigan - I actually thinks this works on you and looks quite cute, especially if you wear longer tees under to offset the "cropped"-ness of the cardi. But that's just me. ;)<br /><br />And that Yoga cardi - looks wonderful on you, but not so flattering on Dina. Curious indeed. Just goes to show - different sweaters for different body types! ;) And you're right about the colors! Yum indeed!Drewablankhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01055175676984815558noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6871738287043527278.post-40102580463234125642010-02-03T07:56:58.297-05:002010-02-03T07:56:58.297-05:00gigiofca - thank you!

I do still like the swingy thingy...just realized not quite at full price (whereas the pearl Jackie was totally worth it for me and the long beach cardi will be if it fits right). I will definitely revisit later on sale.HeidiGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17335791412412897005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6871738287043527278.post-32600388564184216392010-02-02T21:02:02.642-05:002010-02-02T21:02:02.642-05:00Heidi, I am with you on the swingy cardi.

Then , I got the merino crewneck that you, awesome girls, put on hold for me and definitely returned the "swingy thingy". I wil post pics of it too. With certain body types it might work.

In both displays, the pearl was with the blues/greens. HTH! (I looked at the blush one too and even took it to the dressing room, but the pearl was much better.)<br /><br />dinagideon - no ducking needed, but I do think this is a case (like the Carly dress when I post it and the Nico skirt) where the camera angle in the dressing room made it look a better on me than it would have if I'd brought it home to take pics. It definitely isn't quite as short as the dream cabin cardi was and I probably would pick it up on sale, but I doubt there will be any left. Ah well.... And yes, I had such a great time yesterday, too! Given the weather forecasts...now they're calling for 3-6" tonight. Glad I grocery-shopped on the way home yesterday.<br /><br />Kristin - yeah, sweater length is a funny thing, isn't it?? That cashmere vneck cardi...yum! I tried one on in store earlier in the season and loved...but just wasn't prepared to shell out FP for it.HeidiGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17335791412412897005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6871738287043527278.post-18708905554691655542010-02-02T19:37:40.395-05:002010-02-02T19:37:40.395-05:00Thank you for posting these reviews.

I have the shirred cardigan that came out last Aug that I love and wear to death. I like the berry cardigan on you. I will have to try that one the next time I'm in a store. I am not a big fan of open cardigans though - I like to close mine. JC has a cashmere v neck cardigan right now that looks like the perfect length for me but it's expensive. Wish there was a cheaper merino version! <br /><br />Can't wait to see what you have on dresses!
