Citron silk asymmetric button down

catgirl

Wish this wasn't final sale because I love it but am not sure of sizing... I think I'm probably a 6 which is not available.

This looks like you, and I love the way it half tucks! I'd be nervous about the final sale-ness with that neckline. I'm not sure how it would work on IT shoulders.

ETA: But take my comment about IT shoulders with a grain of salt. I am somewhat obsessed right now with finding tops that don't make me look like a line backer.

That was a worry too, Marmee! Final sale is too risky...

I see what's to like about it! Pretty and interesting all together.
Final sales just drive me nuts, and I can't do them except if I've tried it on somewhere, or maybe if it is ridiculously inexpensive . There is always something to discover once you have it.

yarg! I love the cut of it, that asymmetrical button placket! I assume you have haunted the web to find if it is somewhere else online?

Oh man, that's hard. I hate that. I try and tell myself no more final sale but sometimes the goodies are sooooo droolworthy. Could you sell it off to Rae if it's too small? eBay to recoup?

Erg, how irritating is it when designers don't provide a size chart?

But here are the results of my investigation. The sleeveless version is modeled in a size S here, which they say is size 2-4. Also, when using the Saks fit predictor on another button front silk blouse, they suggest I take a size 2 in Rebecca Minkoff (I predicted my fit based on Equipment, Joie, and Bailey 44). So my guess is to take the smaller range of your true size.

Now... I sure wish I knew what the color looked like IRL! Some citron is awesome on me, but the florescent kind looks weird...

Same here, and a more pastel-y yellow also looks terrible on me. I need an acid citron, as I suspect you do too. I love that aviator trench flap look!

Me too!!

Hm, looks like the color name is comet. Seems like the non-catalog pics are more saturated... though some look like a saturated lemon.

I didn't... Just not sure enough with the final sale, since I don't sell on ebay. SO CURIOUS! Has the price dropped?
