If you aren't crazy about the sweater, I feel certain you can find something you like better for less than what I imagine Stitch is charging for this one. And the same with the necklace. You wear it well but it isn't so unique you can't find something similar that you adore. <br />YES YES YES to the vest!onceuponatimehappilyeverafter.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14496967140182523960noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365694657538005233.post-35896183543727272862018-11-12T14:41:39.513-06:002018-11-12T14:41:39.513-06:00Hi Amy, I couldn't find your Instagram do you ...Hi Amy, I couldn't find your Instagram do you have it linked up here to your blog? Anyway, I agree with you on the orange sweater. The neckline comes up awfully high. The vest looks like a nice quality.

And like I said, I actually have two sweaters in this color already, although the styles are different. I so agree with you about the vest, and I CAN wear a coat over it, which is a huge plus. The necklace is around $35.00, which isn't really expensive, but it seems really cheaply made for that price. The chain is super thin.Amy Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11878073765579182362noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365694657538005233.post-990532035967884902018-11-12T09:00:08.215-06:002018-11-12T09:00:08.215-06:00That vest is definitely a keeper Amy.

I like that's it's not that puffy like some vests are, and the fact that it's plaid, you don't even notice some of the quilting until you get close. And it fits you perfectly.<br />XOXO<br />Jodie<br />www.jtouchofstyle.com<br />Jodie's Touch of Stylehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16453914318183037853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1365694657538005233.post-15651024588585732932018-11-12T08:43:05.881-06:002018-11-12T08:43:05.881-06:00I love the color of the sweater, but like you I am...I love the color of the sweater, but like you I am not a fan of the high neckline (although I do love the pullover styles). I'd keep it if the fabric was very comfortable around the neckline. It does look nice with the vest. <br />About the vest, I think the pattern is unique and it doesn't look bulky like some other vests I've seen, and it looks like you could even wear a winter coat over it. Since you do like to wear vests, I'd say keep it. <br />The necklace I'd probably also only keep if you kept all pieces. It's pretty, but it sounds like it is a bit expensive, and I personally only buy expensive jewelry if they are gold or silver. Not sure if this one is. <br />Good luck with your decisions :-)Ellibellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13106646755228295248noreply@blogger.com
