Loft - more irl pics

Congratulations to fshononmymind (hope I spelled that right) of Notes From the Dressing Room, winner of the $100 Shopbop gift card giveaway. Please respond to my email with 48 hours of the send date/time.
*******************************************

As stated in the earlier post, 30% off your entire purchase continues at Loft. The online code is GOFORIT and free shipping is automatically applied on $100 or more. The promo is automatically applied in-stores and you can use your Loft Cares card for an additional 20% if your purchase is $100 or more. Visiting the store is the best deal given the availability of sale merchandise in the 2 stores I visited. I don't know if people have been able to use their Loft Cares card online. My guess is no, otherwise there would be a code going around online. However, I haven't researched it. Perhaps you can have customer service help you out.

If you visit the store, remember that Loft has sale mixed in with regular merchandise in some cases. Many of these pieces are no longer available online, but you know now what to keep your eye out for if you like any of these. I'm not sure if the promo will end today, Sunday, or go until Monday. You might call your local store to see if they know and/or if they will tell you. Sometimes they say they don't know until they arrive in the store, but I don't always believe that. Last week's promo had 2 components. The additional 50% off clearance component ended on Sunday. Whereas the 30% off new arrivals component ended on Monday. Interestingly, on Monday, all of the clearance items were cut almost to what they were with the additional 50% off. Can't keep up w/these retail promos these days. It's like a part time job to figure out how to get the best deal, esp when they are running them back-to-back.

Short sleeve hooded sweater coat (250146) - Size SP - Loft does sweater jackets really well. The weave is usually beautiful as is the case w/this one. I didn't like the short sleeves in contrast to such a heavy coat and there are no pockets. Many of their sweater coats are sans pockets. I'm sure that helps keep production cost down. Many retail around $79.50 and you know if you wait a moment, you can find a promo, such as the one they're running right now. 71% acrylic, 17% wool, 12% alpaca. It felt very soft and I was surprised to see no cotton in the fabric mix.




All over sparkle tank top (248845) - Size PM - The fit wasn't right for me. When I had it on I got a flash of Russell Crowe in a breastplate, so I think there are better sequin tanks out there for some. Wanted to be sure to share as this is what I'm wearing under the sweatercoat directly above.


Corsage sweater (249424) - Size PM - Very cute. Also comes in pink with white stripes. It looks very spring-like. I found these folded and totally hidden on a shelf in the corner of the store. Keep your eyes peeled.


Drapey long sleeve tee (252765) - Size PS - The sleeve were super tight and I think they would be in a PM as well. Could be a nice top if it flatters your figure. It's so thin though.


Metallic cable sweater - Size PS - Loft does a nice sweater even though I'm not a fan of the stitching that makes it look like it's being worn inside out. I'm not sure if I would stay w/PS or go for PM. I'd have to try on that size to compare. Probably PM to give some room, though. ETA: This was itchy.


Bold brush stripe scarf - This scarf was nice enough. I am on scarf overload, so it's hard to be objective. I don't know what material it's made out of. I don't recall it being scratchy, but I don't remember it being esp cozy or soft either. FYI -- when shopping Loft, you might think all of the scarves are confined to one area. That's not nesc the case. In both of the stores I visit the scarves are in 2 or 3 places.


Ruffles & rosettes tee (250002) - PM -

Sweater jacket with double layer (249935) - Size S - I only saw this in regular, not petite. Very cute. Again, no pockets.


Sweater toggle coat (252018) - Size S - A PS would be better. As with many sweater coats form Loft, no pockets.


The notions are plastic. 


Also...
* Assets firming tank, firming cami and firming slip
 
* Assets firming shorts, firming mid-thigh and firming maternity
 
* Boat neck sweater with twist - The twist is an interesting detail. I didn't see this one to try on. It may have not hit my store yet. Will be great on the right figure & possibly maternity.

* Sensationally soft turtleneck sweater - I like the button detail on the sleeve. You'll probably need to look for P sizes if you are so the sleeves aren't too long.

* Long & lean cardigan
