I love this sweater. I needed something that was a lightweight sweater to travel to Sweden this summer (yes, it's cooler there). Some of my other sweaters were too heavy. This was perfect. I could wear it alone. It fit well under a rain jacket and I could also wear a blouse under it if I needed a little more warmth. It packed nicely and didn't wrinkle - plus, it was very stylish. I can definitely use this during the fall and even into the winter. It's inexpensive. I'm not sure how long it will last but it was definitely a worthwhile purchase I will get a lot of use out of.
