I haven’t been all that interested in the new scuba hoodies since I’ve already purchased all the jackets and sweatshirts I like. When I was at Coquitlam though this one really drew my attention from afar. I’m a huge fan of Heathered Clarity Grey and the combination with Citron makes this a really subtle yet pretty print. Usually I’ve found that oatmeal colors can wash me out and look boring but the Lulu version of it is so flattering on, it’s something you just have to try on. I’ve had lots of compliments on my Modern V-Neck in this color…most notably from my sister. Anyone that has a sister knows how reliable that compliment is. I wont be grabbing this sweatshirt but it really did make me sit there and admire it. I also have to give a notable mention to the distressed Lolo Purple Hoodie because I like the Purple detailing on a grey background and no color blocking. As far as the distressing, I’m not fussed about it, it doesn’t bother me. As far as the price ($128 vs $98) I think you can tell the difference in the styling of the two sweatshirts and that one is a bit more “pretty” and softer looking (the Alarm one in the bottom picture is $98). so it just depends on if you love it and would get a lot of use out of it. I don’t see these sweatshirts as being the same price so I’m just not surprised that there is a difference. $98 is expensive for a sweatshirt as is $128.
