Lots of compliments

The length was such that it’s not short enough to be crop and not long enough to cover your mid section in low to mid rise jeans. So you must wear it with high rise stuff IMO (I don’t like to wear high rise stuff). But, the top really grew on me. Perfect for LA spring. And such a fun print.

So cute!

This is a super unique design, playful/fun, and an eye catching fit at the same time. I got tons of compliments the couple of times I’ve worn this so far. The only thing I don’t like is the price to buy it. I’ll probably hang onto it until the weather warms up so much it’s no longer practical.

Fun and unique

Wore it for my “freedom” party. It is tight and thick. It is cropped but just right. My teenage daughters thought it was cool which means it’s cool

Amazing, fun sweater!

Loved this sweater! Wore for my bday dinner and Thanksgiving. Such a fun take on a faire isle sweater. Also loved the shorter sleeves and cut and puff in the sleeves. Would be super fun with black leather pants for a holiday party. Rent and enjoy!

Fun, stylish, WARM!

This top/sweater is amazing! As someone with longer legs, I like a relatively cropped top to meet my waistline & not create bulk (nor show midriff). This sweater did exactly that! The puffed sleeve detailing and the graphic lightning bolt across the top are both fabulous! It is a very, very warm top. In fact it is a sweater so that would be my only warning. Oh, and it is a bit bulky (why it's so warm) but other than for packing constraints that wasn't a problem.

Killer Sweater

I love the super 90's shape of this sweater with the fun lightning bolt detail. While it ran a little small it was still comfortable to wear. Not too warm and not itchy --which is crucial! Love it!

Really fun and different top that went great with jeans.

Wore to a Super Bowl party while playing music with a band. It was a little more cropped than I would have preferred (kept tugging on it to pull it down so my midriff didn’t show). But it was a cute and flattering fit and just the right style for the occasion.

Chic Graphic Sweater

Gorgeous graphic, chic fitting sweater perfect for Spring and standing out at work, especially virtually on Zoom! Love the cropped fit and puffed sleeve shoulders, it looked beautiful while sitting down in my wheelchair-double win! Wish I could buy!

Loved this one!

With high waisted jeans and a short waist, this didn’t feel uncomfortably cropped. It did show a sliver from time to time but not super noticeable. I loved this sweater so much and wore it a ton!

Bolts for the win

Went out to dinner with a girlfriend visiting. Such a cute look. Could be dressed up or dressed down. Perfect for a cool night. Casual but a little extra. Got stopped and complimented. Pair with a bold red or pink lip. Loved!

Fun sweater

Fun lightning bolt sweater. The shoulders are pretty poofy, hard to wear a coat over it. It’s very warm. Pretty cropped, best with high waisted bottoms.

Very cropped, thick knit, I sized up

Fit fine when I went up one size, but it was a bit too cropped for my liking and I would have preferred if the knit was not as thick and bulky

Runs a bit small and a little cropped but works well with a high waisted pant... little itchy and tight to pull over my head.... overall good for a fun wear.

Super unique super cute

Would’ve given this 5 stars if the pilling wasn’t so bad. Even tho, I loved this sweater, it’s a cropped fit so I had to wear high waisted pants since I don’t have my young body anymore! Cool design and style. The little padding in the shoulders gave it a delicate touch. Not itchy at all. Highly recommend!

Warm and classy

I wore this on a cool evening not sure I would be warm due to the short sleeves, but it was perfect. It went well with my high wasted slacks and not itchy. It’s actually very soft. Also wore this to a business casual meeting. Would buy it but it’s too $$$$
