It took me a while to purchase my first Aude piece but once I did I was convinced it was going to be one of my favorite labels.  Same feeling with Sworn Virgins although I only have 2 tops… would LOVE to add more SV to my closet!  It’s so soft, great quality fabric, and the styles are so unique.

Sworn Virgins Marge Short Sleeve V Top, yellow, medium – I barely even read the description on this -  I saw there was only 1 medium and panicked and hit the buy it button before I missed my chance!!  After all, it was meant to be – my daughter’s name is Margie )  It was SO worth opening a new cart for.  It’s slightly lower cut than I was expecting so not right for all occasions but definitely perfect for date night.  In fact when I tried it on for the picture my husband was happy to hear I’d be wearing it next time we go out.  The color isn’t the best for my skin tone but it’s not the worst either, other than that it’s perfectly lovely.

Sweet Pea by Stacy Frati Flower Print Top, green, medium – Some days I love this top, others not so much.  Sometimes I feel like I look great in it, other times I think it looks awful on me.  I’ve worn it a few times now… but I’ve also tried it on thinking I’d wear it only to change my mind after looking in the mirror.  I’ve never quite had a relationship like this with any other piece of clothing so I’m not really sure what to think.

Aude Short Sleeve Turtleneck Sweater, black, 3 – Love at first sight on RTC, love at first try on at home.  This sweater is perfect, SO soft, stretchy but won’t lose shape, amazingly flattering fit.  I’ve already worn it many times, I’m sure it’ll be my go to sweater for as long as I can make it last!  I couldn’t possibly love it any more.

Aude Jeffrie top, white, 2 – I took the plunge on this on the Aude final sale day and had no idea how much I would love it and wish I had gotten it in many other colors before they all sold out.  I think I was expecting a lace at the top instead of the crochet.  I assumed that it might look bad being lace but was pleasantly surprised that it was a nice not too flashy crochet.  *IF* there were more and I was able to get my hands on them I’d probably size up to a 3.  The 2 works but it’s a little snug.

Aude Sweater Long Sleeve Drape Neck, ivory, 3 – Once I had the short sleeve turtle neck I knew that I would probably love this one just as much.  I do love it, but maybe just a little less than the short sleeve.  The drape seems a little awkward on me, but I think I can make it work if I play with it enough and position it right.  I’m pleased with the feel and comfort of it as I expected, and I think the Jeffrie top works underneath but it might be fun to wear a colored tank or cami sometimes.  Would that be too silly?
