O.k.  I may have lost my mind just a bit......I purchased 3 TSVs!  I got the Beach Rock, Aquamarine, and the Riveria Blue.  They all are a must have in my mind.  LOL!  I would have bought the black and white, but I already have a ton of sweaters in those colors.  I know the coral isn't for me since I returned a shrug in that color that just made me look so washed out.  You really need an olive skin tone for coral IMHO.  I was too pale for it to look good on me.  I'm so looking forward to my 3 TSVs to come so I can try them on.  I am going with a Medium.  I feel that BFD runs a little big and I usuall take a S/M.  The arms look bigger and not tight on the models so I think a medium should be fine.  Don't wait ladies or you will be kicking yourselves with those gorgeous new colors!!!


You aren't crazy at all! You'll get so much enjoyment and wear out of those three - all of my favorites in the TSV, too. I bought the aquamarine and debated too long about the blue. But I have so much BFD, anyway. Enjoy!!

If you go on Facebook and was the midnight presentation, the BFD guest has the mint on with the aquamarine throughout the presentation. I bought both because it looked really pretty together IMO. 

 

Not sure if this FB link will work, but just in case for midnight show to see the presenter:

I'm not sure if this is where Kristen meant to share your Barefoot Dreams story.  My son was recently killed in a car accident.  I was in a grief share group with my Barefoot Dreams sweater pulled around me.  The man next to me asked if i was cold.  I said, "No this sweater just makes me feel cozy and nurtured.".  I asked him to feel it and he completely agreed with the softness of it.  Maybe we should have a cardi for men.  I see pants online but no sweaters.  It is coming up on the anniversary of my son's death.  This is a bad month for me.  I just bought the new aquamarine and blue one on the TSV to help get me through it.  My son would have loved this sweater.  His whole life he was into his favorite blanket, shirt or sweater.  I kept some of those to hug.  This sweater is like having the hug he can't give me.


There aren't adequate words for how sorry I am for your loss. I'm sending you hugs and prayers.

No, you didn't lose your mind, @Beeweaver!

It is 5 am in California the the Aqua and Blue are GONE!

 

That's a shame for others.

I have my Riviera Blue coming, expedited, Wednesday!

 

I'm using expedited, biting the bullet, on everything now.

Somehow the already-slower than usual regular shipping keeps getting stalled out along the way, especially when UPS transfers to mail "innovations". Many items stalling for a week or more at some transfer point. Two items never showed (Q sent me another on one, the other no longer available).


@1Professor  & all - I'm glad that I watched the launch show. Quickly ordered Aquamarine - loved the true tone vs the website photo. Who knows when I will get my order. I refuse to pay expedited shipping charges; my fashion orders have been in extended processing recently. My Rinna pants that I ordered on 5/31 just shipped yesterday! Still waiting for other fashion items ordered weeks ago

@HeatherAG Thank you for posting.  I didn't watch the midnight presentation so I never saw what aquamarine looked like on air but I took a chance.  I will order the tank to go with it.Smiley Happy

I have not read the whole thread, but you seem to be familiar with this brand so I am asking your opinion.  I am 5' and 117 lbs.  I usually buy a small in Isaac, and size 8 pants.  According to the size chart I am a Medium.  Do you think it will swim on me?  I have never worn this brand before but love the look of the tsv and I think it will look okay with jeans or crop pants even though it is not Petite length.


I woud go with a small.  I'm 5'3" and 150.  I always go with the S/M or the Medium when individual sizes are offered.  My older barefoot dreams have tighter sleeves but most of the newer styles seem to have bigger sleeves.  I would go with a small if I were you.  But, if you like things  more room, go with a medium.

I wish the olive were available in my size. It's really pretty.

Re: Barefoot Dreams 2020 Friends and Fans Chat

@Catch71 I’m about the same size as you and always order the XS in BFD. The length is always fine, too. I think I ordered a petite length in a duster, but the avg length is fine for all other styles. Enjoy!
