Sweatshirts from men's section

I love swraters and sweatshirts. As someone who always needs sweatahirts, here is a perspective on buying sweatshirts. 



I have noticed a lot of differences between sweaters, sweatshirts, and cardigans across women's section and men's sections. I prefer buying sweatshirts from men's section. This is why

1. Interesting patterns
While women's sweatshirts have effiminate patterns such as florals, men's sweatshirts have a variety of patterns like solid colors, camouflage, plaids, checks which are rarely seen in women's collection.

2. Fabrics 
Women's sweatshirts are mostly made with acrylic wool, whereas men's sweatshirts often use real wood, fleece, or even cashmere in the same price range.

3. Warmth 
Owing to use of synthetic or semi synthetic fibers, women's sweatshirts are often thin. They also fail to keep us warm. Due to use of natural fibres, men's sweatshirts are cozy and war.

4. Comfort
Due to synthetic fibres, women's sweatshirts are often not breathable and hence uncomfortable. Natural fibers in men's sweatshirts make them breathable and comfortable. 

5. Fit and length
Women's sweatshirts are snug fit (for slim girl the relaxed fit would be size L or even XL 🤷🏻‍♀️) and nowadays even cropped. However, gentlemen do get good fit and good length in their collection.

6. Durability 
Poor quality and cheap synthetic fibres maje women's sweatshirts peridhable. While the natural fibres make the men's sweatshirts more durable. 

7. Cost
Despite of poor quality, fabric, fit, and length women's sweatshirts will still be expensive as compared with men's sweatshirts.

Looking at these pros and cons, I strongly suggest to buy men's sweaters and sweatahirts. Being the cobsumers we should invest in the best quality clothes which are durable, sustainable, moreover comfortable. Then it would not matter if they come from men's section or women's section.

If we stop buying the poor quality good, then manufacturers would have no choice than making only the good quality items.


Hope you found this piece informative.

Not a friendly face

Image
I often get told that I do not have a friendly face. Looking at my face, people often tell me that I look very strict. If I don't smile, I appear to be unapproachable. I have been told throughout my career that I look unapproachable. I look strict and that is why I look scary people are afraid to approach me because the way I look. This is purely based on how I look. They don't even bother to interact with me to decide whether I am approachable or I am unfriendly. Based on how I look, I am easily judged as strict unfriendly or unapproachable. The reality is quite contradicting to their judgement. I do not need to say anything in addition to that. That leads me to several questions which are an answer till date. Unapproachable, what does that exactly mean? Unfriendly, what does that mean as well? How do you label somebody as unapproachable or unfriendly just by looking at their face? What happened with "Don't judge the book by its cover"? What happened to "bea...

Monochromatic style

Image
Minimalistic fashion is currently trending. When we refer to minimalistic fashion, we will often see capsule collection and also monochrome outfits. There is a huge misconception that monochrome outfits only mean, black and white outfits, black with black, white with white, or neutral outfits of same shade. Though these look good, monochrome outfits are not limited inly yo these options. Any colour can be picked for creating a monochromatic outfit. Here is how: 1. Pick a statement piece of the outfit. It could be a shirt, trousers, skirt, blazer, or any piece.  2. Find the complementary piece in the same colour but different shade. 3. Add accessories. Another misconception about monochromatic outfit is that they are boring. Monochromatic outfits can look boring if styled incorrectly. They can be made to look interesting by adding accessories.  Many people also claim that monochromatic outfits make one look old. Absolutely not! Use of same colour never l...

Childhood fear

Who thought that the statue of Buddha can be scary? I never thought of it as scary until I witnessed it. I was 4 years old. I was going to a wedding with my father and my grandmother. We were going to the wedding by road. There was a hotel on the way. It was a fabulous 3 star luxury hotel. This hotel oozed sophistication. It was a 5 story hotel. Quite luxurious. Quite trendy. This hotel had its exterior in beige colour which was illuminated with golden warm lights. It  had a huge statue of Buddha. This statue was almost 2 story tall. It was placed on the 3rd floor with a beautifully crafted arch. This statue was in a seated position.  His eyes were closed.  If I think about it today it would have appeared serene. But not at that time. I still remember how the chills ran down my spine after seeing that statue. I saw the statue illuminated in golden light. I saw its face. There were shadows around his face. The face appeared as if it had committed a heinous crime. It had a ...
