As you know by now, Tory Burch is my new favorite brand. All the pieces I’ve purchased have held up well, fit well and I wear a lot of those pieces on a regular basis. It’s why I’m looking to add more Tory pieces to my closet this year, spending the money on items I know will last. Let’s take a look at three tops I tried on last week.

~ Embroidered Cotton Tunic, size 8 ~

I went to the store to specifically try-on this tunic. It’s shorter than Floral Linen Tunic I have and hits around the hip. The sleeves and hem are embroidered in multiple colors with red being the stand-out. I think it might have been nice to have some of that embroidery at the neckline.

The size 8 was the best fit, and is my normal size. The boxy style seems a bit shapeless on me. I would prefer it to have a little bit more shape at the waist. I do prefer the sleeve hitting at the elbow. The neckline is low but still covers well, IMO.

~ Smocked Peasant Top, size 6 ~

I wasn’t interested in this originally when it showed up online but after seeing it styled as an off the shoulder option I tried it on. Due to the smocking the top fits very loose. I ended up sizing down to a 6. I tend to shy away from smocked items that have it at the arms because it’s always too tight but the smocked on this blouse was fine and I barely noticed it.

It really does look cute as an off-the-shoulder option and I actually think I would wear it this way during the Summer. There are ties at the neckline and the waist has a contrasted smocked band.

~ Ruffle-Sleeve Cotton Peplum Top, size 10 ~

The SA brought this to me while I was in the fitting room. They had just gotten it in the store and she hadn’t seen it on anyone yet. It tried on the size 8 and it was very tight in the arms. I didn’t even get the top all the way on. The size 10 fits a lot better and the side-zip helps get it off and on with ease.

The sleeves have two ruffles and on someone with a longer arms will hit 3/4-length while on me the sleeves hit at the wrist. The waist is smocked giving a little definition and the hem is a single ruffle. The blouse is lined in cotton so the sheerness you see in the arms is not in the body.

I have my eye on a couple of other Tory tops as well.

I think my favorite is the Ruffle-Sleeve Cotton Peplum Top. To be honest, I didn’t like it when I tried it on but after seeing the pics a few times, I think it’s really cute, something I’ll wear quite a bit in the Summer and will look good with pants, skirts and shorts.

What do you think of these tops from Tory Burch?
