Amazing Crewneck Sweatshirt

I thought I was going to love this Zella sweatshirt. It's soft and cozy and I love the pockets (which are lined, by the way). But the sizing is too big and the colors weren't great. I think the pink was too dull and not great for Fall and the lighter color that I thought was more white is really like an speckled oatmeal and didn't love that either. The gray was fine but I had a Zella sweatshirt from last year's anniversary sale in the same color. As for sizing, I'm 5'1 and the xs just looked too big and wrong. Sadly I returned.

I purchased 2 of these. 1 black and 1 light purple. Let me start with the sizing. I am 5’’7” 36dd (enhance) 31 waist 39-40 hips. They are 100% true to size. I went to the store and tried on both colors in medium and large. I first went for a medium because I didn’t want it to be too big. But after trying on a large I decided it looked better than the medium. Which is true to size. The style is very cute. As far as the bad reviews on sizing or style I don’t understand. It’s not boxy on me. It’s on the longer side def not short. If you get your size, the pockets are not in a bad spot. I’m assuming others may be shorter or taller and that may have a affected the size of the sweater and how it looked Henderson the bad reviews. They also may have got a smaller size. If you are very skinny from the waist down you could size down. If you are very tall it may be boxy. But you’d have to be over 5’9” or taller and have a very long torso. Ok so now for the quality.. So the black one is made of a better material than the purple. The heathering in the purple, grey and cream colors are a material that pills. I washed them on gentle inside out and the very first wash I notice pilling on the purple but nothing on the black. So I’m not sure, I may return if I can because it should not be pilling at the $70 cost. This is a 29$ sweatshirt as it stands. It does have a very soft, cozy furry lining inside that makes it warm for very cold winter months and the only thing that sets this aside from a regular sweatshirt. If you can get this on sale, it’s worth it and I’d suggest the black if you want no issues with the material. Or the dark purple color. I hope this helps. ;)

I want to live in this sweatshirt. There are pockets!!!! Pockets!!! The color is a flattering pink and it is destined to be my repeated go- to this winter. Fit is oversized but not sack-like so it's just perfect for lounging or errands when paired with leggings. Did I mention pockets?

Tried the pink one on at the store. It’s insanely soft and gorgeous- just a little too long/big. If you’re looking for something oversized that covers your butt - it’s a great choice. Sleeves were a bit too long as well.

Warm and the inside is SOFT! But at the end of the day its just a boring gray sweatshirt. Returning because I could really get this item at Target for half the price. A good staple piece though for lounging around the house in comfort.

This is great for lounging or running errands. Not too long, soft inside, super comfy. Doesn’t look frumpy. Pockets are so nice! Got this in 2 colors.

I bought this is an attempt to find something cozy this winter and did so. The inside is lined with the softest fleece, and I pair it with leggings. I am short (5"2 at most), and it covers the bum without being sloppy. I went with the small, and it fits as pictured. I have worn it a lot since receiving it and have washed it. The fleece maintains its fluffiness. Certainly not a high style item but can't go wrong if you want something comfy.

I bought a charcoal gray version of this sweatshirt at the Nordstrom sale last Fall and I've been keeping an eye out for when they had more in stock. THIS. SWEATSHIRT. IS. AMAZING. Does it run big? Yes. Is it worth buying in two colors in a size down or having it be a bit oversized in your regular size? Absolutely! It's SO soft, holds up well in the wash (doesn't lose the new sweatshirt feel), and is worth the price (I know, it seems a bit steep for a fairly generic crewneck). That said, if you want a crewneck that looks good with jeans, leggings, and is made of quality material that will make you feel great every time you put it on - this is your chance.

I wanted to love this sweater. It’s comfortable, not itchy …. But I look like a big marshmallow ghost from ghostbusters. It’s doesn’t have much weight to it so it doesn’t fall properly on the body. I look like a balloon. Shame. Going back.

Extremely soft and cozy. I could have worn a small, but sized up to a medium to allow for some extra room. I loved it so much that I ordered other colors. For reference, I am 5'5", and 125 lbs.

I’m obsessed with this sweatshirt!! I got the pink and light gray. I usually wear an XL for most sweatshirts/tops especially for length but for this I sized down to a L based on reviews! I’m about 5’11 and curvy for reference. This sweatshirt is so absolutely soft and tapered/cut so nicely! It’s not bulky and doesn’t make me look like the Michelin man, thank goodness!! It’s so dang comfortable, perfect length for leggings, right amount of stretch, not too thick or thin & has pockets! It’s a sweatshirt that’s a little nicer quality so you can definitely make it look nicer if you want which is nice. Want to buy even more colors because my mom loves to take mine!!

I was excited about the sweatshirt and it’s pockets, but unless you have zero hip width, the pockets stick out at your hips and make you look large. I’m a small/medium and this sweatshirt looked like my hips were two sizes bigger.
