Thanks for the feedback!
Suz - I did buy this shirt a few months ago - before it went on sale (I am a bit proud to add), but I have worn it several times over the past weeks. My seasonal tolerance is probably moderate -I really like ponte fabric and wear it all year long, same with lightweight wool and agree with you on silk. The weight of this shirt is not too light or gauzy, it's a pretty robust, opaque linen.
Firecracker - I think part of why I like this shirt is the nice long length and bit of flare, and I like your idea of pairing it with more substantial bottoms into the colder months, and Joy - your comment about cognac inspires me! WHat about with my Frye boots and medium to dark wash skinnies?
