J.Crew Email: A beach-chic cardi

"Thanks!" to many of you, including Marietta & Elizabeth, who shared with us the latest email from J.Crew this morning.

The email above features the Metallic Beach Cardigan (Item 23159; $128.00). J.Crew describes the glitter glam cardigan as:
The season's easiest piece, with a slightly slouchy silhouette and a loose, airy knit. Made from a fabulous Italian metallic yarn, it dresses up and down with equal aplomb (we're wearing ours with absolutely everything). Viscose/poly in a 3-gauge knit. Loose fit.
This cardigan has been discussed before on the blog, in the February 18th "Sneak Peak: Metallic Beach Cardigan" post. The cardigan looks super cute (& super expensiv-o, no?) Although I worry about the itchy-factor. Some JCAs reported seeing this cardigan at their brick & mortar (B&M) stores already too.

Incidentally, CheesyGoodness (in this post) raised a good question: what makes an item be described as "beach". I see this cardigan as being worn almost anywhere, from the office to running errands.

What are your thoughts on the cardigan? Do you like the style & colors? Would you wear this cardigan to the beach? :)
