Dare to Compare Theory and Victoria's Secret

Style - Dare to Compare

 

Dare to Compare Theory and VS

Save the colour, don’t these two cardis look similar? You’ve got to love Victoria’s Secret for their spot-on style. What their products lack in quality, they make up for with bargain pricing. On the opposing side, Theory makes a high-quality garment, but — like anything in life, — quality will cost you.

What I love about this Theory cashmere cardigan is the colour. Bright, lemon yellow is the perfect way to freshen up any piece in your spring/summer wardrobe. I also like the short, ribbed sleeves and tunic length — how perfect for pairing with shorts or even over a summer dress! Made from 100 percent cashmere, this cardi is dry clean only, which isn’t exactly convenient — especially in busy summer months.

That’s why I appreciate the easy maintenance silk and cashmere blend – READ: Wash and wear — of this Victoria’s Secret cardigan. Designed in four colours – cactus green, hot pink, raspberry, and colbalt blue –this Victoria’s Secret sweater is the same tunic length of Theory’s sweater. It has long sleeves, making it a more versatile option for cooler weather, but features the same front slash pockets and plunging v-neck as the Theory option.

And pricing? One of these cardis retails for over 300 dollars; the other retails for under 20.

You’ve got two guesses.

Theory Gwyneth cashmere cardigan, $325, Saks.com

Victoria’s Secret silk and cashmere cardigan, $58 $16.99, VictoriasSecret.com
