Short sleeved sweater...what do you think?

I cannot BELIEVE how much I love this look ... and that's saying a lot considering how skeptical I was of the whole short-sleeved sweater thing. While I super love short-sleeved turtlenecks, I just never really got how to wear sweaters with shorts sleeves. I mean, think about it...if you  need to wear a sweater, it probably means you need sleeves so (again with the impracticality) I was just a little confounded on how to wear this look. But now that it is settling in and I'm seeing the interpretations I have to say I am in love. Layering is an art (especially in a climate like upstate NY) and too look so chic...well, needless to say, now I get it. This cowlneck from Lands End Signature is just to gorgeous.

  1. you know, i love the short sleeve sweater w. dress shirt look. i've only done this a few times but i always love it when i see photos.... i know it totally defeats the purpose of a sweater when it's short sleeved...but there are some cute looks that can come out of this!...like this photo above! love this look...but i also have issues w. cowl neck pieces... i tend to fuss way too much over how they 'hang' on me. that's a whole other issue!
