You would wear that to a party with a long velvet skirt? You really would?

Re: New G.I.L.I Sweater

[ Edited ]

this definitely looks like a "real housewives" sweater.

it doesnt look bad at all and i can see this as nice party wear or dinner out wear. i dont like turtlenecks, so it is an easy pass for me.

to those that are buying, hope you love it!

Different strokes. Like Jill said, it's not for everybody, but I thought it was cool and sexy without being overt. I would certainly wear it to a concert with jeans and some killer heels.

You betcha I would.  I am not into cookie cutter dressing.  I'd wear that sweater in jewel tone with a black velvet skirt.  Big drop earrings that coordinate with the sweater and a big axx cocktail ring.  I'd do the same look with soft wide leg black pants too.

What a ridiculous looking sweater. What is God's name were they thinking? That has to be one of the most stupid designs ever conceived. All in mho of course.


LOL I had my husband put it on his TV and he couldn't stop laughing...asked me if I wanted one LOL!  


@tsavorite

My DH didn’t laugh, he just got an incredulous look on his face and remarked he thought it was stupid looking. I thought it looked good on Ade, but it is not something I would ever wear.

That is a Soap Opera sweater. Enough said.

@SilleeMee

Ade was the only one it didn't look completely offensive on. Very strange that it was just an arm but still felt like indecent exposure! Even my husband was creeped out by it

Black on black skin...maybe the least amount of contrast made it look right on her..? @Andreatoo

Illogical and crazy. Plus it's unattractive.
