Gifted from Everlane
Tucked inside my gift box from Everlane was this limited edition premium cashmere sweater that they asked me to review. Well I'll start by first saying thank you to Everlane and then to you all for continuing to support me and my blog. I feel so incredibly blessed.
I've come to look at my Everlane Cashmere Crews as the solid base of my entire Fall and Winter wardrobe. They are simple, classic, beautiful and elevates everything I pair with them. This new sweater is no exception but I've never felt cashmere like this. Even my vintage cashmere is not this thick or soft.
I love this soft Chai color and it has an slightly oversized fit which is quite nice. Although I normally order a small in their other cashmere, this is a medium and I like it a lot. There is so much I can do with it. Skinny jeans and boots or over one of my dresses or just as I have styled it here with old jeans. It's for those days that require cozy.
I've been under the weather with strep throat, which is so frustrating bc I just got a flu shot last month. I'm so glad I had prepared these posts last week bc I can't imagine getting out of my pjs today. I have a lot to prepare for Thanksgiving. I will be making a turkey for the first time in like 15 years. Larry's dad is coming which I am thrilled about. His favorite meal is Thanksgiving and I don't want to disappoint him. Wish me luck friends. x
It is lovely that Larry's dad is coming. I am sure your dinner will be perfect. Wishing you a happy holiday.
ReplyDeletei don't know if the dinner will be good bc i haven't cooked like this in a v long time but i'm so thrilled he will be here with us. happy holiday to you also. x
DeleteI hope you are on the mend soon. Illness is so frustrating. That sweater is gorgeous on you.
ReplyDeletethank u jen. i tend to get sick around the holidays, ugh. x
DeleteThis cashmere sweater definitely looks like something I would wear. I need warmth in the winter, both inside my cabin & out...I keep the thermostat fairly cool. This sweater looks thicker than I think of with most cashmere, which is what I need. I love neutral colors & will check it out on their website.
ReplyDeleteSo sorry you aren't feeling well & pray you will improve as Thanksgiving nears. So happy Larry's dad will be coming...I'm sure it will be beyond wonderful.
I finally made the apple-cranberry crisp & it exceeded my expectations. I ate it right out of the oven, then heated it up for breakfast for the next several days...oh my, fantastic. I will try it with blueberries next.

ReplyDeleteBest wishes to you all.
thank u leslie and hope you are well and healthy. x
DeleteI love this sweater with your old jeans. Wow that looks like very thick cashmere which is difficult to find. I'll have to have a look at that one!
ReplyDeleteUgh strep throat is so painful and yucky, I hope you are feeling better. I'll be thinking of you this week with Thanksgiving happening, very nice that your FIL will join you. Sending hugs to you dear Janet xxx
dani this sweater is so up your alley as they say. it's so luxurious and would be warm in your canadian winters. glad my FIL will be here by my side too. much love dani. x
DeleteDearest Janet, So sorry to hear about your strep throat! Hopefully, the antibiotics will kick in & help you heal. I know this will be a tough holiday for you, but I am so happy you will be surrounded by family, especially Larry's Dad! Wishing you good health & the best Thanksgiving that you can have! Stay cozy & DRY!! Katie from Huntington Beach xxoo
ReplyDeletethank u sweet katie. yes, i'm so happy he will be with us. still struggling a bit with the strep but hopefully by weds or thurs i'll be better. x happy thanksgiving to you and your family. x
DeleteJanet,
ReplyDeleteI am so glad that Everlane sends you gift boxes. You look great in their clothes are show them off well.
This sweater looks so warm and cozy. I am a "cold" person and live in a cold climate (crazy I know), so I'm always looking for really warm clothes. Do you think cashmere is superior? I should invest in one and see how warm they are.
Hope you feel better soon, and have a wonderful Thanksgiving with your family and FIL. How sweet that he is coming.
thank u colleen and i am so happy my FIL will be joining us! yes, this is premium cashmere in my opinion. all their cashmere is grade A but this one is superior to their regular line. it is thick, soft and luxurious for sure. x
DeleteSorry to hear you are under the weather Janet! My daughter had strep years ago, she was absolutely miserable. Hope you are feeling better by Thanksgiving. Beautiful sweater that Everlane sent you, they have been extremely generous!
ReplyDeleteI wish I room in my closet for something from Everlane but I need to stop shopping for awhile. I had to talk myself out of their Day Boots. :o/

thanks linda for telling me about your daughter. my goodness it is taking forever to get over this. the sore throat part is pretty much done but my lack of energy is shocking. i mean shocking to me. all i do is rest bc i have no energy and still no energy. this will be a v interesting thanksgiving. x
ReplyDeleteSorry you are sick, Janet. Hope you feel better fast. Good luck with the turkey! Are you preparing cornbread dressing with it? I have two of the best heirloom southern Thanksgiving dressing recipes I could share with you if you like bc everyone that ever tasted either always ask for more. One is my mother's(RIP June 2019) and the other is my aunt's recipe (neither is vegan, though). I am happy that your FIL is going to share the holiday with you.
ReplyDeleteI have to throw in a "get well soon", Janet, and tell you what a trooper you are to be fixing thanksgiving meal. With turkey, no less!
ReplyDeleteDo you ever read Andrew Saul- his site is Dr. Yourself - sorry can't do link here. But his advice has given me my energy back!
Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Thank you very much for this great post. pure cashmere
