Sonia Rykiel Striped Tie Sweater: Love It or Hate It?

October 27, 2006

When Fall rolls around, I just can't get enough of sweaters. And this Sonia Rykiel Striped Tie Sweater, available for $358 here, has almost everything I look for in a cute knit top. I love the close fit, the 3/4-length sleeves, the banded waist, and the retro stripes. Plus, the dark black-and-blue color palette is very in right now. It's really the perfect sweater, except for one small thing. Seriously, what is up with that necktie? I understand this is trying to be playful, but I think it's trying too hard. In fact, I might even pay $358 to have the tie removed. What do you guys think? Love it or hate it? Tell me below!

Its like Pat Benetar and Billy Joel had a love child in the 80's and this was product of their love. "Baby did a bad bad thing!"

Upon first reaction, I WANT to hate it... but I actually kind of love it! Except for the fact that it's slightly see through...

it just reminds me of avril lavigne. it's ok, but more appropriate for younger people. ____________________________________ Don't tick me off. Or you'll get it.

I would buy the Target knockoff and I kind of like the tie, but I would not wear a white bra under it.

I think it's cool... but yeah, I don't love the horiz. stripes. ----------- “Buy me a dream: Shopping for clothes isn’t about the things you need, it’s about the woman you’ll become when you wear them.”

I would like it if it didnt have the tie, collar and high neck line. Although I do not look good in horizontal stripes. If you have a straight skinny body then it would look good

It's not cute

Maybe I would love it if I were in 7th grade and hated everything about my life.

I don't completely hate it but $358 for that??? come on.

At first I was going to write "I hate it!"... but for some reason, after looking at it for a while, it's not as unbearable as it was at first glance. Still, it's too masculine for my taste, but if I were forced to wear it, I'd make it stylish by pairing it with black skinny jeans and some ankle boots.

i think it would look good with the right person (especially with a pleted black skirt)... i would not pay that much for a shirt. i see old navy coming out with a style just like it.

I'm not feeling the whole tie look.

Well, I liked the tie. Until I read Jen's comment. I can't wear anything that would cause anyone to think of that insufferable poseur Avril Lavigne. I think I just threw up in my mouth a little bit. Thanks a LOT, Jen. :WINK:
