Hi Everyone!
The J. Crew Crystal Necklace Sweater caught my attention earlier this week when I stopped by the retail store to check out the new arrivals. I LOVE this sweater. I should note that I had to size up because my normal size large was a bit snug in the midsection.
Here are a few IRL pictures:
I plan to style this sweater multiple ways, but one of my favorites is with a gingham shirt underneath.
Here is another picture of the sweater:
And, finally, a full shot of the sweater. The underarms are slightly baggy as a result of sizing up, but I’ll probably double layer tops to take up some of that slack:
What do you think of the J. Crew Crystal Necklace Sweater? Do tell!
Thanks for stopping by!
I love this sweater. It's like built in jewelry so one less step getting ready lol. I really like how you combined the colors but I, like you, love the color green. Looks great on you!
Cheryl: I'm with you, I love this sweater. It's so unique and fun. LOL about the built in jewelry, I totally agree! And, thanks SO much for the sweet compliment!Thanks SO much for being here!
I just saw it in the new style guide and drooled over it a bit. It's gorgeous!And it looks great styled with the navy gingham 🙂
Roxy: Like you, I drooled over this sweater as soon as I saw it! Awwwww, thanks SO much for the compliment!Thanks SO much for being here!
Love, love, love it! This is one of those special pieces that I would happily pay full price for.
ifky12: Me too!!! I definitely think that this sweater warrants paying full price. It's super cute and unique.Thanks SO much for being here!
Emmaleigh Dress in Seaside- has anyone ordered this or seen the dress in person? I just ordered mine today and I'm curious about the color.Lisa in CA

Beautiful!
savvy shopper: I totally agree!!!Thanks SO much for being here!
Beautiful!
Love it! I think the navy gingham shirt is perfect with it!
M: I love this sweater, too! And, thanks SO much for the compliment about the styling. I really appreciate it!Thanks SO much for being here!
I saw that sweater in the store this week and thought it was great! But I resisted as it would be too warm here in Spring to wear that heavy merino. Glad that you can wear it!!! I love the placement of the "necklace" pieces. And it looked plenty long enough as well! I'm not a gingham fan, that;s just me. I think if I wore that together it would look too busy. But if wewanted to wear that sweater now, I agree, it needs something underneath with long sleeves.Aren't you loving all the new jewelry??? I admit, I have ordered several, lol. Still working on how to store it – how about you? I remember you had a post about finding another way than just stacking all the boxes. Let us know if you figure it out!! I need help, lol.
Suzy: I squealed when I saw this sweater in the retail store. I think that it's adorable. I love the placement of the necklace as well. About the new jewelry: I'm totally loving it! The designs, colors, and quality have been absolutely stunning and fabulous. What pieces have you ordered?About jewelry storage: I'm still trying to find storage that works for me. I am really odd about how I store my jewelry. I don't like things to get tangled, so I want to lay them flat in separate places. I'll definitely post pictures when I figure it out!Thanks SO much for being here!
LOVE this sweater!!! Do you mind me asking how much and what the style number is? I don't see it online and I haven't been able to hit my local Jcrew …. thanks!
Jess – the style # is 86132, $148
I didn't care for this on the hanger, but liked it on. It looks good on you, Rynetta 🙂
Jess: I love this sweater, too!!!Gigi: Thanks SO much for providing the style number and price. I'm running about a day behind on comments, LOL! And, thanks SO much for the compliment about this sweater. Yeah, the hanger doesn't do it justice!Thanks SO much for being here, ladies!
Love how you styled this, Rynetta!
Carolines Day: Awwwww, thanks SO much! You're super sweet.Thanks SO much for being here!
Tried this on too and now it's on my list. I like the shirt underneath so it can be worn now. I wonder how it would look under a navy or green cardigan if you could find the right shade. Or maybe it navy schoolboy. I just would want to wear it now since it would be too warm for summer.
Shopping Celle: It's a great sweater! I really like the shirt underneath, too. I always layer, so I'll have to wear mine with a shirt/blazer each time I wear it. Great idea about the blazer combination.Thanks SO much for being here!
It looks great on you! Love the blouse underneath and the colour combi!
ruth: Awwwww, thanks SO much! You're super sweet!Thanks SO much for being here!
