I really need a red sweater for holiday performances. Ideally it's something that can fit over a white blouse, but not critical. I saw this

http://www.hannaandersson.com/style....simg=37198_53H (http://www.hannaandersson.com/style.asp?from=SC%7C2%7C4%7C32%7C54%7C3%7C%7C&simg=37198_53H)

Great price, and it's cute, but......I guess I'd like something a little more fitted.

Of course my first performance is Friday! I already have a red long sleeve T that I wore yesterday, and it works great when I'm conducting (which I am this year) because I get really hot. But in future I'd like something I can layer with. anyone buy sweaters from HA before? Do you like them?

Wonder if it would look good belted. A skinny black belt might work.

Do you want to buy something online to avoid the malls? Here's a wrap sweater from LE, it would be 40% off. It's guaranteed for Christmas arrival, but I don't know if that means it would get there on Friday or Saturday.

If you have a LE in your Sears, you could see if they have it there, I don't know what the in-store sale is though, not sure if it's 40% off there.

You might also want to check Zappos.

I think the sweater you linked to is a very pretty color, but agree it's a little boxy. I don't have any experience with HA women's clothes.

My only HA sweater experience is several years ago so I'm not sure how meaningful it us, but my sweater was hot. It was thick cotton. I donated it because I was always hot. I'd definitely poke around LE if you have time to wait for shipping. The discount is great and applies to the overstock and Canvas sale merchandise as well as regular price stuff.

thanks Ladies! I just bought an order from LE, boo. :p But I do have some time for the mall this week so I'll check out Sears and Macy's. I'd like something with a little flair to form.

I know you said sweater, but I just got this jacket and it's a beautiful shade of red:

That sweater is cute! But I'm not seeing how to get the 40% off.

Rats, that last Coldwater creek sweater is awesome, but not even close to my size, waaah! Guess it's going to be B & M stores right now.
