Toteme Striped Sweater Dupe on Amazon
I saw this sweater on Fashion Jackson last year and was committed to splurging on the real deal Toteme striped black and white sweater UNTIL I saw that it contained wool. I stumbled on this great dupe on Amazon WITHOUT wool so I ordered it. I loved it so much that I also ordered it in black.
I styled this amazing Toteme striped sweater dupe with black mules and two different styles of jeans. I love that it is so versatile. I can throw on a pair of black denim with suede heels for date night or pair it with yoga pants for school drop off. This sweater has been a go-to since I bought it a few weeks back and I’m really excited to wear it as we transition from winter to spring.
I’ve been trialing a “proof of concept” approach to buying luxury items (something I’ve never done!). Basically you buy the dupe or less expensive version first and see how much you use and enjoy it BEFORE you invest in the luxury item. I’ve worn this so much that if the “real” sweater wasn’t wool I might consider it. But for now, I’ll stick with the dupes!

Sweater Details
Fit: This is a tunic style sweater but its light enough to tuck in. I’ve been pairing with a tank underneath for a warmer feel this winter which I will likely ditch come spring. It fits true to size (I’m wearing a small). The sleeves are on the shorter side which hasn’t been an issue for me, but if you have long arms you may consider sizing up.
Care: I’ve worn multiple times before washing. I washed mine in the washer in a delicates bag and laid flat to dry with no problem. We will see how it wears over time.
Price: Under $40 (vs. $570)
