Oooh: what a pretty sweater. I like that this summarizes a bunch of trends into one — short-sleeved sweaters are back bigtime, as are polo sweaters, and I’ve been seeing so many crocheted and wide knit tops like this — I really like for a casual weekend look, particularly with a matching tank beneath it.

(Of course, know your office before wearing something really sheer like this — if the base spaghetti-strap tank isn’t appropriate to wear to your office, the sweater probably won’t be either.)

The sweater is one of the bestsellers at J.Crew, and comes in three colors for $89 in sizes XXXS-3X.

J.Crew has a lot of pointelle options right now, but none are quite as delicate as this “cashmere lace pointelle.” This cashmere pointelle sweater set is on final sale and has a very sophisticated vibe.
