Preppy in the best way

Such a great cardigan. I unbuttoned the bottom just a bit to make it feel a bit more fun for daytime. So comfy but really elevated my outfit.

Perfect spring sweater

I unbuttoned the top and bottom buttons for a sexier take on a preppy sweater.

One of my favorite rentals so far

I took it on a cruise with me and it was the perfect piece for over sleeveless dresses. The arms are a little tight and there's no extra room in the torso, it's a tight fit so if you're between sizes, size up (unless you have skinny arms!)

Cute for work and play

Love this top! It’s classic and cool. The Christ white top goes with jeans or slacks and elevates whatever I wear with it. It’s comfortable and form fitting yet stretches. I loved it so much I bought it.

Super cute. I wore this twice and planned to buy until they change the price and I couldn’t use the coupon. Oh well not meant to be. I would definitely rent again though.

Wore many times- goes with everything. I have a long torso so would have preferred a little longer but I made it work.

Cute little cardigan

Perfect white cardigan to layer over dresses, jumpsuits, tops, etc. I’m not in love with my arms at the moment, so this is a staple in my closet. Easy to dress up or down as well.

Very cute but runs small

I wore it more than I thought I would, just wore a cami so it wouldn't be a crop top when I raised my arms. Comfortable thick cotton material, easy to style. May rent again in a larger size.

No stretch at all

Material was a bit stiff. So if a sleeve got a bit stretched as you go to fix it, it stays that way! This also made some of the buttons were tough to open/close. Works with jeans or dress pants. Overall, still looked nice.

Just okay

Maybe not my style but I thought this was just okay. It was a little tight, maybe that is why I didn’t really like it.

Love this cardigan!

I loved this cardigan and have rented similar from Ralph Lauren in the past! These do run small in my opinion, so I sized up and it fit perfect. The fabric doesn't have much stretch.

Size up… Maybe two

This is a cutsey classic Ralph Lauren short sleeve cardigan that is designed to be fitted. I recommend sizing up two sizes so it's not so fitted.
