Oh, Una, that color would look spectacular on you. I can see you matching it with the emerald moto jacket, or doing all sorts of things with it.
I got my Equipment blouse from Nordies last year and it may have dipped slightly above the $100 mark--I can't remember exactly. It started at well over two hundred. It is a ridiculous price (IMO) to pay for a blouse but everyone's price point is different and I bit the bullet at the sale price. Then of course I was wearing a sling from my injury at the time, and the very first time I wore the silk blouse, the velcro reacted with it and later I saw places where the threads were loose. Duh-oh, that was stupid of me. It's basically okay, but I cringe to think about it and the fact that these are not sturdy blouses--they're like butterfly wings. Then again, I trash my things worse than other women, probably. So if you can be gentle with it, it'll be a lovely piece to add to your wardrobe. I think you should spring for it.
