“THE YELLOW BOYFRIEND CARDIGAN & MOCK NECK”

spring20145

Above is…..THE WHISPER KNIT BOYFRIEND CARDIGAN…A251578… &….MOCK NECK SWEATER ….A251584…….both in…………..YELLOW……………………………………………………………………………………………………..

FIRST….the name “boyfriend”, for me, is deceiving. I have always designed and thought anything  called “boyfriend”….a jacket…..a shirt….a SWEATER…..as having the look of a  garment that was borrowed from your boyfriend/husband etc……therefore the look and fit would and should be OVER SIZED……….This cardigan however is not!…but since this is the name given to it by QVC….we will refer to it as a “Boyfriend Cardigan”…………….The cardigan actually has a LONG & LEAN LOOK. It has a subtle shape, but it is not tight…..It follows the line of the body so it is not boxy or baggy………..YOU SHOULD STILL BUY YOUR NORMAL SIZE…..but….for those with body issues…….please check the body measurement before purchasing!….especially the waist and hip…..If you have large hips you can always leave the bottom buttons unbuttoned….which I prefer anyway……… The approx length for the XS is 30 inches, so feel free to wear it with leggings, slim pants, regular pants, crops, Capris and shorts…….shirts………pencil skirts, Boho and long slim skirts will all work……..Perfect for all of those SLEEVELESS DRESSES!….. I am sure you will come up with many more styles that will coordinate well with this cardigan…………….This is an UPDATED CLASSIC with a definite EDGE………VERY IMPORTANT….The cardigan is made in the “ENR, [EVERY NEED RIB]” construction, which gives the cardigan more structure and makes into beautiful….PATCH POCKETS!!!!………There will be THREE styles of matching WK sweaters that you will be able to wear with this cardigan………………The TANK, which I will talk about when the picture comes up, and the ELBOW SLEEVE MOCK NECK above, A251584, which will be sold……..OLO…….this month, so be on the look out. I never know when they are going to post the OLO items. Most of the time you EAGLE EYES spot them before I do!!!! LOL. The MOCK NECK is approx 24 inches long for the XS…….24 inches is considered, in the design world, as the classic length for basic sweaters. The sleeve and the mock neck are RIBBED for the PERFECT FIT….not too tight and not too LOOSE………which gives the garment a more youthful appearance. This sweater also has the……WAIST WHITTLING RIB BAND, which so many of you prefer, because of it’s slimming effect. It is due to the rayon/nylon blend of the WK that these ribs work so well. The yarn itself keeps the ribs soft to the touch and prevents  gripping…….so the sweater is very comfortable, especially the mock neck.

YESYESYES………..the little FISHY is coming back!!!!…………and this time it will be offered in SILVER TOO!………………Again, it is double sided with one eye being YELLOW, as above, and the other side being BLUE. For those of you who missed out on the GOLD FISH PENDANT…………..that will be coming back too……….I would suggest ordering as soon as you see it so you don’t have to wait another year……..It will be coming in late Spring. As soon as I have more info…I’ll let you know ….so you don’t have to start stalking from now…LOL…………scroll down for more……………………….enjoy……………much love……………………………….Louis

    Got this and matching shell (so classy) in 3 colors, including the yellow and taupe which I love to pair the two colors together-I know this sounds weird, but it’s just a favorite combination of mine. I already have the Phoenix shirt in yellow and the denim skirt, so already, I’m off to a great start for Spring!

    Thanks Louis.

    P.S. I think the WK 3/4 sleeve V neck is already sold out. I couldn’t find it today.

    Louis, I have the every needle rib mockneck elbow length sleeve sweater in yellow. Is this cardigan the same fabrication and shade of yellow?

    Good Morning Louis! Love this cardi! So the gold fish now comes with different color eyes? Now I need a new one!

      The silvertone one will have yellow or blue eyes depending on what side you wear it.
