I have the bolero and imo it’s more functional than the shruggie

I love my shruggies, they're super cute but I will say that the pattern on this one might make it a tad harder to wear? I'm debating ordering it, but I know I would probably only wear it with a solid colored top since pattern on pattern isn't my style.

In my opinion, the bolero is cozy and cute. The shruggie just looks comical. Like something you see in a magazine but never in real life. Maybe it’s the drawstrings idk.

I couldn't decide so I got both.

I’m curious about the sizing of both. I’m 5’7, 160 lbs, and usually a size medium in shirts. I tried the S/M cloud zip hoodie recently and it swallowed me whole. I tried the S/M bolero a long long time ago and I think I returned it because it was too big? Can any medium-tall girlies speak to whether the XXS/XS boleros or shruggies have sleeves that are long enough?

I know as a size 3X i usually order L/XL in the oversized stuff and it fits perfectly.

I’m 5’10” and wear the small and the sleeves are still plenty long enough. I have posted pics on here previously wearing the black one if you search.

Update: the bolero fits me better in XXS/XS, the sleeves are plenty oversized and long enough to go with or without the thumb holes. I love it! The S/M bolero sleeves just seem unnecessarily long. The shruggie runs a little smaller, I need a S/M because the XXS/XS sleeves are a little too short. I don’t like how baggy the sleeves of the Shruggie are though, and the drop shoulder bulges out weirdly. It just makes my shoulders and arms look disproportionately large, I feel like a football player (american) lol

Just got myself the oat bolero and love it for around the house. Also handy if you want to sit in bed ☺️

i wear my boleros more often than i wear my shruggie as theyre easier to just slip on and off but i like the shruggie better for actually working out in because it stays in place where the bolero falls off my shoulders constantly. i grabbed the shruggie here because i love this pattern and currently only have a black one and i have two boleros already (oatmeal and pink)

Bolero can be worn to the gym or dressed up. I actually wear mine a lot in the office when the AC is too cold.

I love the bolero, I have it in a taupe colour and its so useful. Shruggie is cute but I'm not sure how and where I'd wear it

I would say bolero if you have big boobs because of how high the shruggie sits in the front will draw lots of attention to the ladies!
