The Limited Scandal Collection: Draped Open Front Cardigan

Out of everything I tried on from the Scandal Collection, the Draped Open Front Cardigan was my absolute favorite.
I grabbed a Small and it was a perfect fit. The Petite Medium might have shortened the sleeves and length a little but I like the fit of the Small. This is very soft and comfortable on and I’ve been wearing it during the day when I’m a little chilly.

Olivia Pope is always wearing this sweater at home drinking wine. I’ve done that as well, while watching the season premiere of Scandal last week.

 
I have to say that The Limited did a great job with this collection. I was very surprised that, even though everything is Poly or a blend, the attention to detail and fit and seaming and embellishments was very well done. Just because something is made from Poly doesn’t necessarily exclude it from my closet. But it should have those special details to construction that allow it to fit well and look like it’s not Poly. Banana Republic and Ann Taylor do it all the time. I can’t tell you how many times I’ve seen a blouse or skirt and thought it was silk and been surprised to see it was not. 
What is your favorite from the Scandal Collection?

    What a great cardigan! Looks fabulous. We don't have The Limited north of the border, but I have remembered that I have virtually the identical piece, bought at WHBM about 4 years ago. It has not had enough love, and you have inspired me to liberate it from my closet. Though as it is ivory in colour, I doubt I will sit around drinking wine in it as that is a disaster looking for a place to happen… sorry Olivia.
