Stunning! AI absolutely love this outfit. A contender for #1 of the whole project.

Terrific outfit (!), partly because of the overall simplicity (letting the "busy" part of the sweater and the color carry it). Amazing that you were able to match the sweater/tights colors -- helps lengthen the lines (and doesn't look too "matchy").

My mind immediately goes to the little star candies from Spirited Away :) Shoulder cupcake frosting

it's awesome how you were able to find tights that match the cardigan so nicely. My first impression was that you look like a LG.

This may be my favorite yet! The tights and shoes complement the sweater perfectly! A look that I would absolutely, positively wear to work myself.

Absolutely adorable! Also, I like to see what kind of heels are on your shoes and boots. The first picture here does that. I used to have a pair of shoes just like those. It has been so long ago that I can't remember when! Perhaps 40 years?

@plainjane – We've just raised over $6000 in the first 5 days of eBay's Green Team campaign! It's incredible. Thank you all for signing up to the Green Team and supporting our cause :)

Today I wrote about sustainable consumption and put a link to UP. Your cardigan makes me think about Lucky Charms cereal :p

Also, I have been trying to join the green team. and it keeps telling me that there is an error on the page - is this because I am from Australia?

My school uniform was this exact colour. it was a three-button, waisted shirt dress and as soon as i saw this i couldn't stop thinking of ways i could style mine up! thanks.

" Back in the pink of things indeed".Your cardigan-tight colour match is perfect.Even being girly-girly colour, you look adorable in it. BTW initially I thought that the righthand corner figure may be an error-realised -not so- Ita the "magical math"comb effect of e-bay-UP. well done 4 this clever idea,the tree is growing....... and growing.......

I have such a weak spot for cardigans and this one is GORGEOUS. Totally rockin' outfit.

I actually think this is my least favourite... because even when I was not the hugest fan of your outfits, they always felt cool or experimental. This, to me, just says granny.

I'm not a fan of pink, especially not in a cardigan, the tights would have been OK I guess. But the flowers and wool knobs on that thing? No, really, not for me.
