It’s been awhile since I featured something from Joe Fresh, a cheap and cheerful Canadian brand I adore. It was sort of a Canadian secret for awhile — our answer to Uniqlo —but now that Joe Fresh is set to open south of the border (in New York City to be exact), I guess we’ll have to let the secret out.

Having said that, this sweater is so wonderfully Canadian, with its overt Group of Seven resemblance. But, according to this Elle magazine article, it was actually inspired by Scottish artist Peter Doig. Although a little Cosby/Christmas sweater-y, I see it as incredibly chic when worn with a black skirt or a skinny pant.
