Quick post! They don't have this blouse on my size (it's a small cut) so sized up. Happy with the body if the top but worried too big in the shoulders. What do you think!

I was thinking of layering it under a collarless jacket tonight for my MC gig at our fashion parade?

Thank you!

I think it works since the seam drapes off the shoulder. It's not like there are stiff tips sticking out, you know?

I love the drape, and it looks fab with your booties! Layering over this drape might be hard for many, but I'm sure your wardrobe could handle it.

Becky & Angie, I love you both! I'm on a super shirt time frame today and what I ordered to wear tonight is too big! Desperately looking for an alternative...thank you.

The drape and color are gorgeous on you, Deborah. I'm glad Angie commented as I didn't know what to make of the shoulders. And your white boots!!

I don't see any too-big issues with it. I also think it looks wonderful on you.

Thanks girls. I couldn't be objective and found it difficult to assess the shoulders by myself;)

Beautiful. How about the shoulders? Sometimes when you size up it is too big in the shoulders. In the picture it looks great. It is soft, fluid and drapey so it should be ok even if the shoulders aren't perfect. I like the white n you.

I think the shoulders are in line with the fluid fit of the blouse. So gorgeous on you, too!

I am smiling Hugely!
I bought this top this morning.
Snap, we are shirt twins.
So keep, keep, keep! (birdlike chittering)
I went for a #12 which is maybe a couple of mls too wide on the shoulders but the back fits better.
I think it will be just so good jacktless for low 30's and summer evenings.
I love the arm coverage, I want to avoid the sun like the plague. I know it's not UV resistant but I think even a little bit of fabric will help.

Penny. I saw your citron blouse in black and was very tempted. The 10 was so tight in the arms and the only other size they had was a 16! That's what I bought! How are you going to wear yours?

Deborah I was wearing bootcut dark wash jeans when I tried it on and it looked nice with them. I think it will pair well with my cobalt blue slouchies, my white jeans (white on white!) and with my as yet unworn striped tube skirt.
A topper will be hard for me, in fact I might have to save it for temps and occasions when I won't need a jacket. With our summer heat there will be ample opportunities.
I agree, the sleeves are not generously cut.
I hope your evening went well.

Wow, I had to rub my eyes, Deb!:-) This is such a wonderful, clear bright white and looks fab on you! I couldn't really figure out if this kind of a blouse is practical enough, but now, as you told us how will you style it, I want one for myself, too!
