I have 2 cardigans that I bought at Kohls, a Black and a navy. I love them both and wear them a lot in the winter. They have ribbed cuffs and at the hem of about 6 inches, at least. I love that the sleeves don't let cold air get up. They cost about $13.99 each, on sale.

The offerings at J Jill and Talbots over the past couple of weeks caanot not compare with Denim and Co. I have ordered several nice things for under $25.00. And J Jill has extra coupons on Retail Me Not. The quality has been good and I have picked up some Fall Winter items and Spring Summer. Today tshirts are just under $10.00 at Talbots and they have Flash Sales and returns are done in a reasonable manner. I imagine they had a very slow last couple of seasons and hence the deep reductions. I have read fabric and supplies are increasing around the world so I expect things to rise in price in the future. I also picked up Christmas gifts.

I'm hippy with heavy legs; just don't think these long cardigans would complement my body shape at all. Seems every vendor on the Q now is making these. Really like the black but just don't think it would work for my body.

My issue is in my area there is just a very short period of time where a long cardigan is useful. It goes to too warm for one to too cold. I have one of these and have hardly ever worn it. 


here too,  I have a nice one and actually love it, but there is a brief window in which to wear it, and then it is colder and a long cardigan looks silly with a jacket over it.

I compared  the measurements of this Denim and Company TSV cardigan to a Susan Graver duster that I own and love and find this TSV appears to run quite small.  In order  for the TSV to come anywhere close to the stretchy, comfortable SG duster, which fits well in the Petite Medium. I'd have to go up to a large in the TSV and it still wouldn't be quite as roomy nor as long even if I ordered the TSV regular length.  My recommendation, if you're considering purchasing the TSV, is to take special note of the measurements, comparing them to something you already own and love. It could save you a trip to the post office and a costly return.Take care & God Bless. : )

I love my long cardigans, but where I place blame is the QVC programmers in charge of scheduling these on-air items.  Why are they bombarding so many long cardis at the same time?  As much as I love mine, even I'm sick of seeing them.

 

QVC is so risk-averse.  I'm pretty sure the answer is that one brand's long cardigan got high sales recently, so now they are throwing one in every show, every day, including the scheduled TSV and Big Deals. 

 

Long cardigan fatigue, such a turn off.

@Carolina925 , I'm built the same way.  And I find if these type of garments don't flow properly, they look like a big tent over my rear-end.  Not a good look.  LOL

I caught part of a presentation (did not need to watch it all) and decided the Cardi looks cheap. The fabric is almost certainly going to pill badly. Easy pass for me. I wish the IM one was available in petites. The quality is better.

Passing on this one too.  I prefer a 3/4 length cardi to this length.  Ordered this IM one the other day.  Yes, more expensive but I prefer the length of the IM one and I think his quality is better.   A384080

I have one long cardi. It's a lightweight smooth knit with the Michigan State University logo on it. (Go Green!). It's actually quite useful here in Florida during our four day winters. Haha. Outdoors when temps dip into the sixties and indoors too. We don't use indoor heat so a duster comes in handy. Even if for just a short time. When I visit Michigan in October I'll be taking it. The tsv cardi is pretty but I also think it's going to pill badly
