When I designed Charlie I wanted it to be a sweater that was a go-to sweater; the sweater you can throw on when you just don't know what to wear, oversleep and don't have time to think through an outfit or are simply having one of those I-feel-frumpy-and-ugly days. With the cowl neck and puffy sleeves, there's a lot going on at the top of the sweater, so I avoid wearing big earrings and necklaces with it, which means less time needed to get dressed. You can just quickly throw on Charlie with a pair of jeans or dress pants and feel confident as you walk out the door that you're looking pretty good. And when that cute guy in line at the post office starts flirting with you, you can smile to yourself and think, "maybe this isn't a frumpy day."
