m&m -- My pleasure! ;) mari-mk -- I have last year's retail version of this actually, so can't speak to the factory version. Mine is super cozy, not itchy, a bit slouchy, but not terribly so. I wear it a lot and love it. Hopefully the factory version is similar?

How is the fit of this sweater? Is it itchy? Thanks:)

Thanks again for all your help & advise!! :-D

Thanks. :) I know, it's so irritating that the prices are different. The olive looks so pretty too, so maybe you could try it out and then if it wasn't ideal, you could return (phew, not final sale!)? I think go for the medium instead of a large that would be too big down the line. It's slouchy enough that you might be able to even wear post-baby!

Oh thanks- it looks lovely on you! :) I wish this color was was the same $ online as it was in-stores (I hate that)!?! :-\ I can't decide if I should just go with the olive moss color (for $59.99) or hold-out and see if this one will dropmore? Also, I'm usually a size M but since I'm 34 weeks pregnant right now I wonder if I should go ahead and order a L? That way maybe it'll fit post-baby!?! Any added advise? TIA for ALL your help-- I really appreciate it! :)

It's definitely slouchy, but in a good way. I posted a pic of the small here: http://shopwithm.blogspot.com/2010/10/several-jcrew-reviewspics.html But then got the XS. I still would have been ok with the size small though. It's sooo pretty.

How's the fit of this top? I think I might NEED to order it! ;)
