My Review of This Trendy Leopard Print Cardigan from Amazon
I already love cute sweaters from Amazon, and recently spotted this leopard print cardigan that’s been one of the biggest hits in fashion this season. So I tried it for myself to see it lives up to all the hype or not.
Here’s my honest review –
ZESICA Women’s Long Sleeves Open Front Leopard Print Cardigan $35.99 (regularly $53.99)
If you’re looking for a great cardigan to keep you warm and complete the perfect outfit, this sweater cardigan will do the trick. Plus, I’m finding that leopard continually comes back in style making it’s a must-have wardrobe pick. I’d even go as far as to say it could stick in your capsule wardrobe for good!
With well over 300 reviews and 4.3 out of 5 stars on Amazon, this cardigan is not only a popular choice, but it’s also extremely affordable compared to its identical Nordstrom competitors shoppers are comparing it to!
Here are the many things I love about this cardigan:
-
- The material is SO soft! It’s the perfect combination between a cozy knit blanket and a soft cotton fabric, so it’s not itchy at all and could easily be worn with a tank top or sleeveless shirt.
-
- It has deep front pockets: They’re the perfect height to rest your hands and a great size to put your phone or other small accessories that you’re toting around.
-
- The length is perfect: I found this cardigan to be slightly longer than the stock photos on Amazon (unless the model is pretty tall and I’m 5’5″). I like that you could easily pair this with leggings and still have your tushie covered.
-
- The print is spot on: Leopard can be a hit or a miss in my opinion, but I think this Amazon cardigan is spot on! I love the tasteful colors and if you’re looking for something slightly different, it also comes in many other colors to suit your style.
-
- I love the cuffed sleeves: I like the added detail of the cuff sleeves. I typically roll the sleeves of my cardigans anyway, so the fact that these are already sewn with a cuffed detail is a bonus for me!
Here are a couple of things to consider about this cardigan:
-
- The seams came a little sloppy. I did notice that the seams at the neckline were a little unfinished, but I think once you trim it, the fabric would still be okay and it wouldn’t pose as an issue long-term.
-
- The inside doesn’t have a leopard print. I’m not sure how you would achieve a leopard print on the inside for a knit sweater, however, I thought that some readers may not like that or that it looks unfinished and that it was worth noting.
-
- I wish it came in an XS size. I typically wear a 0 or 2, so I wish that this cardigan came in a smaller size since I found the small to be slightly big on me. If you wear a size 4 or larger, this won’t even be an issue!
Overall, I think that this oversized cardigan is adorable! If you’re into leopard print, I think you’re just going to love this trendy Amazon find!
And in case you’re curious about what I’m wearing, I paired my cardigan with this Amazon shirt and my favorite faux leather leggings from Nordstrom (I also shared a knockoff version on my Nordstrom post, too). 😍
Hip Tip: If your cardigan doesn’t work out, did you know that you can now easily return Amazon Prime orders at Kohls? 
How convenient is that?!
You can return at Kohl’s and get $10 kohl’s cash per item. We had to return 2 items Saturday and got $20 to spend. My husband bought me a snowman spatula piece for my stove, a big coffee cup that says home is where the dog is, and something for our daughter paid $0 for all 3.
I returned 2 amazon items at Kohl’s on Sunday and didn’t get anything…😶
But that’s awesome that you did!
The return policy says you will receive a 20 percent off coupon for every item retuned….you got lucky!!
Is it me or does it not really look like a leopard print? Just splotchy. Thanks for the review though!
I’m with you jen s. Just looks like black splotches on a khaki sweater. Would look better with the 2-color spots.
I’m not typically a fan of leopard print but I like this sweater, so I could see where people might not like it if they like a traditional leopard print.
I bought this sweater too and the sleeve fell off the first time I wore it. I was so disappointed since it’s so cute.
I think the size Small looks cute! Wouldn’t size down as it may be too fitted.
The sweater is cute and all, but I want to know where your pants are from ? So cute
I agree! SO cute! You can find Sara’s faux leather leggings through the link near the bottom of the post!
I have and love this sweater. I obsessed over whether to get it and was so glad I did. It looks absolutely as cute as similar sweaters my friends got for way more.
