      I usually wear a size 16(US) and the 16 was huge on me. The 14 fit well though. I'm a 34F and it wasn't straining across my chest, which is a huge plus! The green is a nice kelly green. I think it would be a little short to tuck in on people with long torsos.

        I was so pleased with this classic, comfortable shell that I ordered a second color and am contemplating a third. It is ideal for wearing under suits and cardis. It is flattering and comfortable, as well as light but not see-through.

              Ordered the blue with grey stripe. The grey stripes are too stiff and wide and remind me of racing stripes or a uniform. I thought the blouse would be lighter and more feminine. Perhaps if the stripes were not flat and folded but rather, lacy and lighter (or light blue or patterned with flowers as apposed to matte dingy grey) it would work better. It went back.

                I love the vintage style of this. It seems timeless. I think I can wear it with jeans and keep it casual but a little different or dress it up with a vintage skirt. It seems very versatile. The fabric was a little nicer than I anticipated. Great shirt. I am usually either a size 8 or 10 and went for the 8, based on other reviews, which turned out to be the right fit.

                  I am tall (5'11") and have a long waist. This top hits my hips at the perfect spot. I often have to pull tops down to keep them from bunching up at the waist. Not this one! It is classic and classy, and could be worn with jeans or a pencil skirt, tucked in or not, with a cardigan or blazer, or on its own.

                    Works well with summer suits for the office but have also worn it to a fancy party. Is a tad tight around the arms - am not heavy but carrying a toddler around does give you stronger arms I guess than was planned by this blouse's designer.

                      This top can be dressed up or down. It would be great for work with a pencil skirt or with white jeans for more causal wear. I am usually about a size 10 and ordered a 10, but could've probably gone with a size smaller because it gaps a tad under the arms as I am smaller chested. I will stick with the 10 however because it is only slight. It is on the shorter size in the torso and would be afraid it would be too short if I went one size smaller. I got the navy color and love the contrast of the grey band down the middle.

                          I've been looking for a shell to wear under jackets and sweaters. This fit well and looked good when i tried it on. Throughout the day, however, it didn't drape or move when I sat down. As a result, I had deep, horizontal creases and looked totally rumpled.

                            This looks great (on me) in the light gray as well as the navy with gray stripes. Though I ordered a size up from my measurements, I'm not sure why this shell has a side zipper. For me, it's extraneous. I could understand a back zipper, but I find this partial side zipper just affects the garment's drape (especially when I try to tuck in). I'm taking out the zippers (should be simple because the seams are neat and tidy) and might one day take this in at the sides. Even if I don't alter the fit, I love this fabric's breezy drape, neckline and pleating. Will wear it under blazers or alone, belted or free, tucked or not, maybe even layered over long-sleeve tops and shirts. And its reputed to be washable - looking forward to that.
