Urban Outfitters Review - Elemental Fringe Necklace and Cooperative Cute Embellished Front Sweater

I have blogged about Urban Outfitters once before. And here I am blogging about them again and about the SAME sweater. I seriously cannot help myself when it comes to foxes. I LOVE them. Combine that with sequins and I am toast. Sigh. My size popped back online and to get free shipping I threw in this necklace, which for $12.99 is actually kind of fabulous!

UO Elemental Fringe Necklace for $12.99

For the price, I think this necklace is quite cute and interesting. It also doesn't feel like a flimsy piece of junk. I'm not saying it feels expensive either but I've looked at similar pieces at Anthropologie that have felt less well made.

Size Medium

Size Small

 

To be honest, I would even consider a Large in this sweater. I think it looks cute slightly slouchy which I am beginning to get with the Medium but it is still pretty snug. Look at that fox face! Doesn't he just say, "Hey, look at me. I am way too young for you to wear but I will wear you down. Look in my eyes. You will buy me. And wear me. And love it. Resistance is futile."

There you have it. The fox wins - now I just have to decide if I need yet one size larger.

Urban Outfitters - Foxy Lady!

Okay. I have not been to Urban Outfitters in at least 5, if not 10, years. Their stuff is super cute but it's the kind of thing my babysitters wears - which is adorable on her but aging on me. I actually stopped in to check out their home section because I had to get a gift for a "Yankee Swap" at my husband's holiday party.
Funny side story - I bought 2 very small things as stocking stuffers for my daughter. The checkout girl was all 'tude and I'm so cool. Well, I go home and open the shopping bag and guess what? She didn't put one of my items in there and instead there was an opened box of Midol. I kid you not. It's so bizarre I'm not even sure how it is possible that happened. So yes, I walked out with a USB splitter and an open box of Midol from UO. Hmm...

Anyway...

As soon as I spotted the sparkly fox, I knew I would be doing some try-ons. I LOVE foxes. Love 'em. Is it because they're sly and sleek? Is it because they are adorable? Is it because many a folk song has been written about them? I don't know but I love fox. Combine that with sequins and I am toast.

Cooperative Cute Embellished Front Sweater (S and M respectively - I think)

Okay - the sweater material is total cr*p. It is not well made - but the sequin fox is! Adorable. I will not pay $69 for this because I'm pretty sure it won't last that long but when it goes on sale I am pouncing. Where will I wear a sparkly fox sweater? I don't care if I wear it to bed, I think I have to have it. So darling.

Foxes again but way less flattering. This was too reminiscent of something you pick up at a thrift store because you think it's sort of funny and retro and nerdy but in a cool way. The foxes are still cute.

Some other sweaters that are tempting:

Cooperative Intarsia Sweater - above-mentioned babysitter has hedgehog version. Cute.

Minimarket Notes Sweater   - I'm a music teacher, it's almost irresistible

Maimi Bird Sweater - I love birds as much as I love foxes. I think.

PJ by Peter Jensen Animal Face Sweater - Deer aren't half bad either

Anyone else check out UO ever?
