The Look For Less: J. Crew Space-Dyed Cardigan

June 2, 2009

Just when I thought I owned all the cardigans a girl could ever want, I came across this cool J. Crew Space-Dyed Cardigan ($108). The burnout design is innovative and I love the long, lean cut. It's a timeless investment, but sadly, my budget won't allow for it. During times like these, improvising is the only way to go.

To see the look for less, read more.

This Delia's Burnout Cardigan ($35) is more in my price range. There aren't any buttons but I can easily cinch in the flyaway front with a slim belt. It's such a great deal, right?

Seriously, with times like this I see deals that swap similar products for a lot less. As much as I like the lean cut of J.Crew sweater, I think the Delias one is equally as cute, especially if it is cinched like you said. Now.. what to do with the money you've saved! :)

Why should a cardigan be that expensive?!? Even if it is cute! I prefer the J.Crew one, but would go with Delia's b/se it is more reasonable.

The J.Crew version is much nicer; wait until a sale.

It's cute! But yes, J.Crew all of a sudden got super expensive...lame.

Yeah, agreed. J Crew has no place being in that price point for a cardigan.

FAB, you should wait for a month or so. I never buy items for full-price at JCrew b/c they go on super sale a month after they come out! I predict it'll drop down to $60. Still kind of pricey, but...

I'll wait to see if it goes on sale....There are those adorable $45 t-shirts that JCREW has all the time that I would love to buy but just can't manage to shell out that kind of dough....and they never go on sale. Oh well!
