I spotted this Alex Mill Sweater in New York a few weeks ago and instantly wanted it, but it was sold out in my size. I loved it so much, I ordered it online in the store.
The poppy stripes are so happy and fun – it brightens even the dreariest day. I adore how it pops against denim, and it pairs beautifully with browns and tans. It’s a wool/cashmere blend so it’s soft, cozy and warm – but not too thick.
This is also a great sweater to pair with looser fitting jeans as it’s more fitted and can easily be tucked. The trick to those loose fitting jean styles? Show the waist – always! I’m between an xs/small in tops and went with a small in this sweater.
It is selling out quickly in the poppy color but also available in a navy/oatmeal stripe which is a gorgeous neutral. And I did find a very similar sweater (100% cashmere) from La Ligne.
If you don’t have a bright sweater in your Winter wardrobe, I highly recommend it! And these will be perfect thru Spring as well.
