I confess I'm not keen on a lot of the detailing on some of the women's jumpers, the extra trim here, the quirky buttons there - it's the kind of thing I buy and cut off if I genuinely like the garment enough and think it has potential. I'm all for tweaking things to suit. And now that autumn is swinging around, the usual suspect colours are coming back in to the mix ... I've already started.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13656222741423910557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6530322011980194624.post-47556660983621636342014-08-25T22:17:23.655+01:002014-08-25T22:17:23.655+01:00I am the same as you Sue - I can't even be bot...I am the same as you Sue - I can't even be bothered to pull out the accessories most of the time (even for a night out it's a chore) and yet it never used to be - I'm so lazy!

I'm the same way at the Gap--the women's sweatshirts always have some pesky, unnecessary detail (like extraneous zippers on a pullover?), whereas the men's sweatshirts are simple and come in three lovely colors: indigo, gray, or black.

The Tomboys are good and I read somewhere they are good for apple shapes. I'm not sure I'm an apple yet but that waistline of mine is slowly disappearing!

I'm a size 10 normally but you could get away with a small as well. The arms are a little looser on the men's than the women's as well which does make them better for layering admittedly if you like to do that.
