I'm back from New York. Do you guys want to see a few photos from my trip? It was freezing when I got there and I am LOVING my Keys Velvet Luxe Puffer (currently on sale). It's been keeping me warm and I'm also getting a lot of use out of my Naked Cashmere Snood that I purchased from last year. Speaking of Naked Cashmere, they have an archive sale happening and the Karen Scarf is only $69. I have one from a couple of years ago and it's one of the softest scarves I ever touched. Sometimes I'll use it as a throw blanket it's that big. It was originally $345 so this sale price is such a steal.
For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall and typically wear size XS in Naked Cashmere. I also wear size 4 in Lululemon tops.
Naked Cashmere Amber Ribbed Cardigan Natural 01 Size XS
This cardigan has been removed from the site, which is unfortunate because I would have ordered it in Lake which is this pretty pale blue. I'm wearing size XS and it's still a bit oversized on my petite frame, but I think it still works. The cashmere is super soft and lightweight but still keeps me warm at the office.
The one thing I did notice that's very different from my other cardigans are the pockets. The opening is from the side instead of on top. Definitely do not put your phone in there!
I ordered two colors to try. They're both very similar, and this particular cashmere is not dyed, which is why their names are Natural 01 and Natural 02. I ended up keeping the lighter shade. The darker shade 02 is still very nice, but reminds me of a grandpa cardigan. They're really both great and can't go wrong with either one.
Naked Cashmere is definitely pricey, but worth the money. I'll be wearing this cardigan at the office for the next few months, that's for sure. It'll become an office staple for me.
This cardigan is lightweight and has a lovely drape in the effortlessly chic look. The
archive sale is worth checking out. There are some really great pieces for great prices. That's it for me today, I'm still recovering from my trip, I'm just so exhausted!

Welcome back, Leslie! Yes please write a post about your New York trip with a picture of you and your sweet grandma! :) I know there will a lot of pictures about food LOL!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the review and while I love the luxurious feel of cashmere sweaters, I am too lazy to take care of anything that needs to be dry cleaned. I have a few cashmere sweaters and scarves which have been sitting in my closet for years. @_@' That being said, Amber Ribbed Cardigan looks like a classic and versatile cardigan and I'm sure it's a good investment if you can make a lot of use out of it.

Hi Andrea! I will post pics from my New York trip. You'll like my photo with my grandma. She's so funny. I miss her the most and of course the food pics!!
DeleteI agree, cashmere is a little high maintenance. But I find it is worth the extra step. It's just so warm and luxurious!
Thanks for the heads up on the Naked Cashmere archive sale! The price on the Karen scarf is amazing!
ReplyDeleteYour sweater is gorgeous! Very nice addition to your work wardrobe.
Thanks so much! I agree, the Karen scarf is worth every cent at $69.
