JCrew Collection silk peasant blouse

Sorry, I lost these photos, or this would have been up earlier!

Sizing: I really wanted to have the top hit me in the right spot at the hip, so I went for P2. In that sense it is true to size.

Pros: just as pictured, very wearable, delicate crochet, lovely silk, fully lined. Dress up or down.

Cons: lined in poly.

My opinion: I keep eyeing those boho tops on made well and jc models but never find one to suit me. I liked this one, by the silk is full weight (not like the ruffled shirt they tried to sell us last year, which was whisper thin and see through; the one paired with the red flowers necklace by that jc designer, remember?)

I like both colors! Such a jc sod, I am.

Sizing: given the extra long tail of this shirt and dodgy arm length, I went with my standard P2. Go with petite sizing if you are usually between regular and petite.

Pros: the silk is of better quality than the Blythe blouse; it is a chiffon silk, lighter, wispier to the touch. 

Cons: the extra length: this stylistically borders on boring for me, and rely only looks interesting if worn with a blazer; the silk feels more delicate, being wispier. It is not a heavy duty winter-weight silk; more of a formal silk-chiffon.

Verdict: more trendy and not a must-have.

Extra long side slit. This is good for a half tuck...
