CASUAL YET DRESSY AND SOFT AS CASHMERE
I was approached the other day by Purple Poppy about doing a sponsored post. If you have been following my blog for very long then you are very familiar with this company. Purple Poppy has turned into one of my very favorite stores since I started blogging. Their clothing is unique and always striking. I have styled everything from dresses to leggings so I was interested in trying something different this time.
I wanted something that I could wear for every day but also when I went out for dinner. I wanted something casual yet dressy. I wanted something that I could wear with jeans or that I could dress up. That is not as easy as it sounds. Most items look good in one setting or the other but they don’t look good in both. I think this Patrizia Luca Polka Dot sweater is perfect!
I opened the package and took out the sweater. It was super soft, that is a thing with me, I like soft! I can’t stand scratchy or stiff fabrics so I usually “feel” down a line of clothing before I even pay attention to the color. I have put back many items that I loved just because the item did not meet my softness standard. Anyway, this was so soft that I immediately started looking for the label to check if it was cashmere. It is actually made of 45% viscose, 28% nylon, and 27% polyester but it could have fooled me. 
This sweater is actually made to have a more boxy silhouette. You can wear it as an oversized sweater or downsize for a more fitted look. I ordered a medium when I would normally have ordered a large. 
I love the playful attitude of the sweater with the multi-colored polka dots. The sweater also comes in gray if black is not a color that you wear. However, most of you have told me that black is your go-to color. Lol! I hope you give this sweater a try, I don’t think that you will be disappointed. This will be perfect for Thanksgiving dinner or even an informal Christmas party. If you really want to make a statement, then go check out all the uniques clothes at Purple Poppy.
After you have made your selections be sure to type in POPPY to receive 10% off at checkout. PLUS, if you spend a $100.00 you will receive free shipping. That is a pretty sweet deal.

Love this sweater! Like you, I need material to be soft or I won’t buy it. Looks very versatile.
Me too, Janet. If it is not soft then I won’t buy! That could be an ad campaign. Lol!
Good morning! Tania, you look SO cute! YOU’RE fantastically photogenic! ❤️ Your sweater and your pumps! Classy! Lovely!
Happy TGIF! Happy everyday and everything to you and yours! ?????❤️??
Thanks so much, Annie! Happy Friday to you and yours. ?
Exercise – I’m thankful for exercise which energizes me.
Always look forward to your blog! E word today, “Effortless!” A warm and cozy, cold weather, sweater! Love it!
It is a perfect sweater for cold weather mornings. It looks so stunning in person.
Cute sweater! Do you dry your Pixie Pants, I noticed my label said hang to dry. These are the ones that have some spandex in them. I also purchased a Khaki pair that I love!
Rhonda, I do dry my pants. I probably shouldn’t but I never even thought about it.
I love anything that can be versatile, this top does that! For today I am thankful for exercise, the ability to do it and to feel better afterwards!
I need to remember the word “versatile” for later in our alphabet exercise. It is something I am thankful for.
OMG, you are the cutest thing EVER in this outfit! Love, love, love it on you!
WOW! Heather, I think you are my new best friend. Lol!!!
The sweater looks great on you! I definitely wear black…every single day. ?
Are we playing the Thankful game today? I believe E is the letter. I am thankful for elections, exercise, energy to do all I need to do, elephants, and eating.?
Have a great day!
Thanks, Gina. Every day??? Really? Lol! You and my sister would get along great.
Love this sweater and plan to check out Purple Poppy!!! I know this is a sponsored post—however hope you can tell us about the slacks and the shoes! They are both darling!!
Shelley, I loved all the different colors in the polka dots and the different options it provided. The pants are old and a pair from Old Navy. The pumps are even older and they are Michael Kors.
This is darling on you! One of my favorite outfits – I love the pink jeans and your heels!
Thanks, Marilynn! I really liked how the black popped against the pale pink background.
