J. Crew Review : Jackie Pullover #65341
I received my most recent 30% off order today and had to immediately review the Jackie sweater. They are currently on promo for $55 plus 30% off and not Final Sale. My store doesn't carry these sweaters so I haven't been able try them in store. This was the perfect time to try them out to push my order over the $175 mark for free shipping. I have always been a huge Jackie cardigan fan and won't embarrass myself by telling how many I own (I'm probably technically a Hoarder). First of all, the sweater is nothing like the Jackie cardigan so I don't know why they call it that. The fabric of the sweater is thicker and spongier for lack of a better term, but not overly thick. I like the weight of the sweater. While I like the cotton Factory Thandie/Charlie, they are on the thin side. I ordered the Jackie in Pink Bouquet and Kelly Green - LOVE, LOVE them both!! The colors are very true. I usually order the Jackie cardigan in a size medium so it is not too tight to wear over a collared shirt. I can wear a size small Jackie cardigan, if I'm just wearing it with a cami. I ordered the Jackie Pullover in a size medium because I didn't want it to be too fitted and I wanted to be able to wear a shirt under it. It is the perfect fit. A size small would have been way too tight. Just for reference I am a 34C with narrow shoulders.

Just got my first jackie pullovers with the same promo price and love them! Even though I was really surprised the fabric isn't the same as the jackie shell (which I own lots of) I do like the fabric a lot - spongy is a good description. I wear the jackie shell in xsmall and got the pullover in small (xsmall was too tight). I think I'm going to be building a collection of colors :)
ReplyDeleteI got one in the byzantine blue in size medium! To be honest, it is too tight! I always buy my jackies in size M - they are more than generous. I love the weight of the Jackie pullover, but it is so fitted, which I don't really like as I am a 34E and am narrow shouldered like you. I am dieting right now, but even when I lose the extra 10 pounds, I will still be a 34D. I wish I had ordered the L, which shocks me, as I usually would swim in that size! I will wear mine in the privacy of my home and under the matching Jackie cardigan when it gets colder! My husband liked it, but then, he is a man!
ReplyDeleteSpongy is an excellent description. I didn't like how it felt. But it didn't help that the color was no bueno on me.
ReplyDeleteLove the raj paisley on you in the other post. :)
