Looking to get a turtleneck but I'm torn on whether to get between one of these

I'm planning on getting a turtleneck sweater and hoping for something that works well with my olive trousers. That said I am very much open to other suggestions of either colors and or brands of turtle necks

if you had to pick a personal choice which one would you go for? im curious

Hm I’d probably be more partial to the grey because I don’t feel like cream looks nice on my skin tone Possibly a little more versatile idk, I love grey knits

DVNO14mo ago
oh skintone? may I ask what skin tone do you have? i didnt really consider that variable to the whole thing

it’s just a personal feeling idk if there is any truth to it

i can't tell if that's the same olive color as my olive fatigues, but for those i have a black turtleneck that i pair with a marled grey shawl cardigan

it’s not rlly something that really matters tbh But I think I prefer the grey

feel like a turtleneck you wear under a cardigan, jacket or coat so that's something to keep in mind

the cream color one i see is from banana republic (that's where i got my black one). it's not at a good price currently fyi, i got mine a few weeks ago for $60 during a sale what color and pattern do you think the blazer will be?
DVNO
DVNO14mo ago

yep but i got a plan B which is just wearing a breton long sleev shirt but like yeah its whatever i can still use it for december season which freezes the hell out of my neck
Benji
Benji14mo ago
well i would personally avoid stripes with a busier sportjacket like that I think where'd you get the sportjacket?
DVNO
DVNO14mo ago
its not a individual thing its a part of a suit but i dont think im gonna be dressing that fancy with the whole suit and tie for a school dance anyways like u think it still works between the two options just wondering
Benji
Benji14mo ago
the suit could look nice but yeah i woudn't pair it with a striped knit/shirt. others here would have a better idea of what to style it with i don't know if it goes with olive pants either tbh
DVNO
DVNO14mo ago
yeah im prolly gonna scratch that
Benji
Benji14mo ago
there's a lot of turtlenecks on ebay btw. I'd look into how long they'd take to ship/whether there are any sellers in Hawaii
DVNO
DVNO14mo ago
Oh yeah ebay i forgot about secondhand/used ones
Benji
Benji14mo ago
what clothing stores do you know of in your area? as well as thrift stores?
DVNO
DVNO14mo ago

hey sorry for the ping but for ure turtle neck is it thin or thick? just wondering cause I dont want it to have a seethrough look to it
Benji
Benji14mo ago
They're usually on the thinner side for a sweater because you layer over them though there are various options thickness wise. No turtleneck should be see through I think (if it is don't buy it)
DVNO
DVNO14mo ago
Uh u said I bought it right has it not arrived yet?

i'm a huge abercrombie shill but in years past they often have chunky turtlenecks in the style of the grey one. with that in mind i'm too lazy to read this conversation in detail so this is my take.
