Perfect color and I like the looser fit, especially with pencil skirts and tucked in. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-507185 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 16:45:17 +0000 rae 507185@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, I was set to keep this size, but an interesting development made me order the size 0 to compare: my current, beloved, very favorite citron top has finally started to pill. </p> <p>I'll get much more wear out of this blouse if I can tuck it in throughout the week, and it looks like it'd now be my main citron item. I already have a loose citron top that *doesn't* look good tucked, and the extra shipping would only bring whichever blouse I keep up to full price, which I'm fine with now that I've seen and felt it. </p> <p>The moral of the story? Rae, you should have just bought both sizes from the get-go! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-507175 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 16:34:20 +0000 mrseccentric 507175@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>rae. </p> <p>you are NOT making me happy about my small-to-infinitesimal chances of getting me paws on this blouse!</p> <p>iow, utter gorgeousness!! steph </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-507164 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 16:19:27 +0000 yankeebelle 507164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a fabulous color on you! It's like it was made for you! I say avoid the shipping charge in this situation and go with what you have as it looks fine size wise to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-507159 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 16:14:34 +0000 Jonesy 507159@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am having a hard time judging fit, because the pics are sort of small and you're wearing a jacket in most of them :). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-507120 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 15:45:22 +0000 Angie 507120@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm inclined to say try the smaller size too, Rae. It would nice to compare the two.</p> <p>So far, it has KILLER potential! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-507076 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 14:54:40 +0000 Queen Mum 507076@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You can't compare how it fits you to how it fits the model. It looks like it fits you really well Rae, and the color is gorgeous on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-507075 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 14:51:32 +0000 Claudia 507075@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rea, look how the model has one shoulder raised really high, and the other arm pushed out at an angle, it may also be clothes pinned in the back for the photo shoot. Just saying! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-507072 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 14:49:40 +0000 modgrl 507072@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>No it's not! I like this size on you, it is meant to be loose! It would be too tight on your girls if it was smaller. It would not be attractive if it was pulling across the bust line. The blouse is fabberific. Keep it, wear it, love it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-507071 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 14:46:58 +0000 rae 507071@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Ack. It says the closest size 0 is in Texas, in either color. </p> <p>Is it worth it to pay *another* $10 in shipping just to know for sure that I have the right size? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-507026 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 13:19:25 +0000 Claudia 507026@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks just fine as is. You won't know if the smaller size is better unless you try it, but this one seems fine on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-507022 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 12:49:03 +0000 Mochi 507022@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>All I can say is the blouse is made for you. As for looseness, I happen to like the tucked look, and as you said you have to deal with the bust issue, but all I can say is you need to keep this in one or the other sizes. Truly awesome. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-506976 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 06:18:11 +0000 goldenpig 506976@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Keep this one for now, call nearby stores to see which one has the smaller size, pick it up, take more pics and report back. That is your homework! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-506975 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 06:14:51 +0000 Refugee 506975@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love the slouchiness of this blouse on you. If you have the chance to try the smaller size, I think it will make you feel better about this . I'm thinking it is an excellent candidate for the partial tuck. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-506973 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 06:05:22 +0000 cciele 506973@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The color suits you so well! I think the blouse fits OK, but it's hard to tell. I'm also wondering what it would look like in a smaller size. I'm guessing if it fits in the shoulder, doesn't pull across your bust, and isn't too tentlike around the waist, you should be good. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-506970 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 06:02:40 +0000 rae 506970@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Looks like I'll have to hunt down the smaller size to compare. The silly AT site does not want to "find in store" for me, so it'll be another physical trek... sigh. I am team online for a reason! lol</p> <p>Thanks for all the replies and validation that the blouse is at least worth getting it right. </p> <p>Amy, the shoulder seams don't fall past my shoulder line, but they are out farther than I usually like for my jackets and shirts - I figured that that was because those are fitted items, so it is good you mentioned that the test holds true for this type of blouse, too. </p> <p>Jayne, that is certainly food for thought. I don't usually have this problem with fitted tops - maybe something about a fitted top hides what you're talking about?</p> <p>Natalie, when I tuck more, it just looks bunched up... bloused it out to disguise the puckers... hm, that seems like a sign that either it's too big or it's not meant to be tucked, right? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-506958 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 05:46:45 +0000 goldenpig 506958@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love love love! Citron is your signature color! Blouse looks like the right fit...but can you tuck more of the blouse in at the sides? Have you tried the smaller size just to make sure? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-506948 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 05:32:51 +0000 jayne 506948@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just a thought...the blouse is great by the way...can the fit difference be due to the model being long waisted and, as a mere mortal, you are not as long waisted? I find lots of blouses fit me the way you describe...and I begin to wonder if I am short waisted..Angie has a blog on that in the archive... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-506925 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 04:59:57 +0000 Parsley 506925@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae, I think his blouse looks great on you just as it is. Don't change a thing! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-506902 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 04:32:23 +0000 sarah 506902@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rae, this is absolutely stunning on you. Now I realize that I need a colorful silk blouse to jazz up my brown tweed jacket. Thanks for that.</p> <p>Wow. So beautiful. The fit looks fine in 1-3, but it's hard to know without comparing to the smaller size.</p> <p>Amy - could you try a petite? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-506901 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 04:32:20 +0000 Transcona Shannon 506901@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love it Rae! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-506883 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 03:50:59 +0000 HelenInCanada 506883@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YAY YAY YAY! Love the fit and the colour on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-506860 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 03:28:41 +0000 crazyone 506860@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it may be the right size, but to me it does actually look weird in pic 4 Perhaps it's because the skirt is so high waisted? Otherwise it's a great blouse! If you're going to wear it under jackets all the time, then I'd keep. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-506858 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 03:28:18 +0000 Amy 506858@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wish I could see where the shoulder seams are on you. It's hard to see in this small picture, but it looks like they are in the right spot. That was the key for me. I do think this is supposed to be a drapey top, but the shoulders have to be right so it doesn't look sloppy. From what I can tell, it looks great on you.</p> <p>I sadly returned mine because the shoulder seams dropped down onto my arms and the smaller size was just too snug through the bust area. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-506857 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 03:28:08 +0000 modgrl 506857@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>This blouse is fabulous! Love it!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-506854 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 03:25:42 +0000 Anonymous 506854@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yay! This blouse is gorgeous on you! I think it is supposed to be a bit loose, but if it bothers you, it should be an easy alteration to have it narrowed a bit and some fullness taken out, The color on you in fabulous. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-506852 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 03:23:30 +0000 Mellllls 506852@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>it's hard to say for sure without seeing both sizes. i think this size is fine, but it is possible that the smaller will look better....i am very much on the fence! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/kre-citron-at-blouse#post-506851 Wed, 11 Jan 2012 03:19:43 +0000 rae 506851@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I *think* I have the right size in this blouse, and I'm leaning toward keeping it, but I wanted to see if you guys think it looks big. Esp. in pic 4 with it tucked into a pencil skirt. The promo pic shows it loose through the bust, and that's how it fits on me, but the tucked pic they show looks like it may be more fitted in the waist... that would make sense, though, since I probably have a bigger boob-waist ratio than your average model. </p> <p>Yay = Keep this size. It's supposed to be a bit loose<br /> Nay= Try a size down. It looks weird tucked. </p>
