Re: Big comfy sweaters

I found some nice ones at Banana Republic

I cannot wear anything with wool in it -- not even a small amount, not even merino wool, NOTHING. My skin immediately turns red and I start getting hives/itching.

Years ago I found the best sweaters at Esprit but then they went under - their stores went out of business and I couldn't even find the brand in Macy's anymore. They had great stuff. And it lasted!! I still have a lot of their stuff and it looks brand new!

Anyway lol White House/Black Market has some really nice tops. I know that J.Crew seems to have some nice things too. It is so hard to find stuff without wool in it. That, to me, is what causes the itchy and uncomfortable feeling!

Re: Big comfy sweaters

Haven't bought any this season, but I do well at H&M and a lot of their sweaters hold up for several seasons.

I have several that don't have wool in them.

ETA: I got a bunch of stretchy cotton ones at The Gap outlet last fall.

ME TOO on EVERY point!! I loved my esprit stuff! My skin turns red and itchy but no hives. Let me know if you find any. My problem is I love online shopping and feel like I can't with sweaters, I have to actually touch them in person.

Same here!! I always look for cotton. American. Eagle outfitters has collection of tops and sweaters that are meant for wearing with leggings. That is, they are longer. I bought some from there and for shorter length I may try some of the suggestions from here. I think I will live in those long cardigans, though. 100% cotton.

I just got a great, comfy, not wool sweater at the Gap and they have a 40% off deal going on for Gap credit card users. The sale started Wednesday and I think goes through the weekend.

Re: Big comfy sweaters

Saw a bunch at old navy. Loved the look of them on the hanger but when I tried them on, I looked 20 lbs heavier then I am. They went over my chest and fell straight down.

I wish I could find ones that were a little tapered to give shape. If you find any like this, please let me know! Chat Icon

I was actually in Forever 21 today with my niece and picked up 4 sweaters for myself lolol it's been years since I shopped there but I found some treasures! Banana, J Crew and Gap always have great sweaters. Maybe limited and Ann Taylor / Loft too.
