QVC has a bunch of their Barefoot Dreams cardigans on sale right now and there is the 6 easy pay option. I first heard of Barefoot Dreams here, and they are now my favorite wrap/sweater. So, I’m returning the favor to whoever turned me on to them. They really are the softest sweaters ever. I have a new cardi in black coming now. www.qvc.com/fashion/barefoot-dreams/_/N-lgltZ1z12xa2/c.html?sc=PSCH

That full zip robe looks like heaven! Just imagine the softest knit ever, and their stuff is even softer than that!

So, I am a 10-12 on top, and while I can wear a medium in many tops, according to their chart I am a Large. So, one of cardi’s is a Large and the other is a L/XL

Thanks! I ordered the one that was on the TSV the other day but think it might be too long for me. I would like the circle cardigan. How do the sizes run? ETA that I see that was answered already.

Living in Florida, I found all of the presentations of no interest. They may be nice, but they are really drab and boring looking...the prices seemed way out of line for what they look like. Glad everyone enjoys them but you must live in cold climates. The $40 cap looked like it should be $8 for someone going thru chemo...and were very unflattering.

I have the hooded cozy chic light and ordered down a size. That style runs large. I wear it around the house a lot,and sometimes bring it to work. It's so warm and comfortable! Leone they are very pricey. The fabric is so soft, and that is what I like. But they are boxy cardigans for sure. They aren't for everyone.

I've also seen these on the GMA/GMA Day/The View deals from time to time, so those interested but not willing/able to spend the QVC prices may find them cheaper there.

I know I'm getting old when I look at prices and think, "What?" Those prices seem high for what you get. I typically don't spend that much on clothing, either. I am hoping that they wash really well and will last a long time, making them well worth the cost. They seem versatile (can be dressed up or down). Despite what Leone thinks, I think they all look really cute (at least on the models) and couldn't decide which style I liked best. I ordered a few with the intention of sending one back. I am really short so my worry is that they will be too long for me. I also don't live in Florida, so I do have the need for warm clothing. I have a cardigan that I got at Sam's club a few years ago that is the most comfy, warm thing ever. But it isn't very attractive (my husband hates it). I wear it almost all of the time when I am at home from October-April (I live in MN) and maybe the barefoot dreams will be a cuter alternative. Or maybe I won't like it at all and will return them.

Only on sale. $80 for a cardigan that I wear a lot isn’t too much $ for me. I really love the look of their camo patterned zip up parka, but that one hasn’t gone on sale anywhere and I won’t spend $200 on it.

My cardigans came today. I sized up and wish I hadn't. How much difference is there between sizes? I ended up ordering four different styles, knowing I would return some. I know that sounds excessive, but I wasn't sure how they would fit due to my height. The TSV one is way too big and looks like a bath robe. I am not going to even try to exchange that one. The circle one is also way too big. I think the two I like the best are the resort cardigan (I think that is the name) and the one that is the shortest. But I can't decide if I should go down a size or stay with what I have for one of them.

I’m also 5’8” so things hang differently on me - I worry about some of their styles not being long enough.

Typically with longer cardigans I end up sizing down but it sounded like their sizing was smaller than usual so I went against my instinct on that one. I’ll have to try the two on that I liked best and see how they fit with different shirts underneath.

I wear mine alot around the house, and occasionally outside. It's pretty long, but looks nice with leggings or jeggings.

What size did you order and what size do you generally wear in clothing, if you don’t mind my asking?

I have 2 of them. One is super fluffy and kind of boxy, and I probably could've sized down on it (bought from QVC). The other one is a much thinner material, and I'm not sure I'd go down a size because the arms are pretty fitted (bought from Nordstrom). I've wanted one of the circle ones, but was afraid they'd be way too long. My husband makes fun of me every time I put my fuzzy one on. He calls me a grandma and asks if I have any tissues stuffed in my sleeves. It's so warm and comfortable, I don't care!
