A couple of tops today, two new arrivals and one that has been catching my eye.
~ Shattered Print Top, size 6 ~
This was in a roll-out almost a month ago but I am just getting around to trying it on. I thought this would fit like the Sleeveless Drapey Top so I brought a size 6 to the dressing room. This is a Viscose/Rayon blend (I’ll end up shrinking it) and fit really tight across the chest. I would need a size 8 in this top and probably it’s solid sister, the Crepe Cap-Sleeve Top. Though the material different, the shape is the same. I think I would have preferred this in the Poly instead of Viscose.
~ Mixed Media Sweater, Medium ~
I’m probably one of the only JCAs out there who does not like this sweater. My VPS LOVED it! Every time I see this sweater I hear that Mad TV sketch of “Men on…” saying “Hated It.” Anyone remember? Am I aging myself? I just think it would have looked better with the front as all floral instead of this knitted part.
Anyway, on to the review, because it seems to be very popular. My store had 4 or 5 left in stock. I had grabbed a Large but my VPS found a Medium for me. I would size down to a Small in this. The Medium was very slouchy on me. I think to combat the busy front, the sweater needs to be more fitted through the body.
I would be afraid to snag the woven part of the front.
~ Hugo Guinness for J Crew Epic Sweatshirt, Small ~
Another sweatshirt, yes…but this one was very slouchy and soft and comfortable. It shouldn’t seem any different from any other sweatshirt but I liked it. I even thought about sizing to an XS to see the fit but I liked the slouchy style of it so I’d stick with a Small, which is down from my normal Medium.
Happy Friday!
