It feels comfortable and warm, and is a flattering style. The fabric has a little stretch, and overall, the cardigan seems to be very well made. I really love the grey color which kind of gives this cardigan a more business-casual, polished look. The plaid is more casual. Because I'm short, the waist does come slightly lower than my natural waist, and sleeves are long, but neither of these are too distracting. It is fitted through the torso, and for me, just a little tight. But I can still fit thin turtleneck underneath. I recommend sizing up, if you want to wear with sweaters.
