I initially saw the pear and hen sweaters that J.Crew put out last fall and thought, "those are cute....just not something I could pull off". Well I was at my local J.Crew and I saw the Parisienne sweater and I can't get over how cute it is. Here is my challenge (and something I struggle with a lot). I used to just buy what I loved and I found myself with an incoherent style in my closet. I have since cleaned out everything trendy, filled my closet w/ good quality, classic pieces that I feel good when wearing and I feel like I am not only defining my style but building a great mix and match wardrobe. What I cannot decide is if the parisienne sweater is too whimsical, young or trendy to fit into my style and wardrobe.
I own a lot of J.crew pieces but my go-tos are No 2 pencils, silk blouses and school boy blazers. I do wear and love unusually pieces but they are usually more stylish than trendy (I own the NO 2 pencil in the cream, black and gray snakeskin for example and I would live in that skirt if I could).
Ladies, please tell me...is this sweater appropriate for a 30 something, conservative mom of 2 who works in the financial sector?
