Henley Sweater

I just got this henley-style sweater and let me tell you… I think it might be my go-to for the next six months. IT’S SO CUTE!!! And you guys know I have no shortages of sweaters, sometimes it’s hard to pick favorites… but this one is a front-runner. I love this shade of grey. I love the slight v-neck. I love the ribbing. I love the high-low hemline. And I *love* those buttons.

I also had to replace my *favorite* jeans. After years of wearing them a few times a week and washing them way more than you’re supposed to (I like them fresh out of the dryer best), the elasticity just disappeared. I put them on, thought they felt weird, and ten minutes later they were sagging at my knees and butt. They were really my favorite, favorite pair and so I promptly ordered the same pair again. When they arrived in the mail, I rushed them over to have them hemmed and I’ve been happily reunited!

The grey is definitely the most “me,” and the color I know I’d wear the most. I wanted to let you know that it does come in a three other colors: a blue, a mauve, and a warm cream.

I should have waited to make all these purchases because right now Madewell is having a great sale. Get 20% off when you spend $100 and 30% off when you spend $200 or more!

I know it’s more of a hassle, but I read that air drying jeans helps to keep the elasticity for longer.

Hi Carly, what size is the sweater you are wearing? We look about the same. I never know with Madewell if I should order an XS or S. Thanks!!

Just bought two 🥴 thanks for sharing this!! I’ve had it in my madewell cart but couldn’t decide because it looked iffy on the model. Seeing it on a real person convinced me to purchase. Also thanks for including something with inclusive sizes!

Love this outfit! How do those shoes compare to your supergas? Are they any more comfortable?

Thanks!

I think they’re more comfortable (very cushy!) but a different kind of canvas. I think these are “softer” whereas the superga are a bit sturdier!

Hm I’m interested to hear that you like it because when I tried it on I thought it was bit itchy! Does it soften up over wear? Maybe I was just a bit sensitive to it that day.

Do you find this to be itchy? I’m super sensitive to that and some of the reviews are putting me off!

I really like that sweater on you. It brings out your features and there’s such elegance in the simplicity of neutrals, you know? What is the sweater made of?
