Attention how do cute ladies who wear men's sweaters purchase those sweaters
I very much want a shawl-collar sweater that is not made of plastic and the world of retail is not obliging me on the ladies' side
Are there, like. Brands. That fit. Or something.

I wear men's sweaters and I mostly buy them from Old Navy. They are slightly long in the torso and arms on me, although I am tall, especially in the torso and arms. I wear a size down from the ladies sizes there and the dudely ones fit over my boobs without being Unfortunate. The quality is decent enough that I get a couple of seasons out of them.

I dislike the fact that they are apparently knitted out of the tears of sweatshop children? But that is where my budget is right now so there you go.

The Gap family was having a sale yesterday so I bought some sweaters by mail! I'm going to see how this goes. I'm confused by the men's sizing - it seems to have a huge range within one size, like, M is four different chest measurements. I guess I'll see how this goes when it gets here, at least it was cheap.

I also bought a coat based on the Autostraddle winter wardrobe posts, which. Hm.

Oh man, I just went over there and it reignited my boot lust.

One day I will buy the Frye engineer boots. Today is not that day.
