I ordered two of Angie's top picks from her recent weekly roundup - the Treasure and Bond Linen Blend Wide Leg Pants in Olive and the Banana Republic Essential Jean Jacket in Medium Blue.
1/ Treasure and Bond Linen Blend Wide Leg Pants
I ordered my size according to the charts, which seemed correct. I loved the colour. The olive had some brown in it, which works well for me. Unfortunately, there was too much fabric around the stomach. Hard to explain, but it was a strange fit for me. I did take them to the seamstress to see if she could take them in, but she didn't think it would work.
I sent them back.
2/ Banana Republic Essential Jean Jacket in Medium Blue
Love!!!! What do I love about this jacket?
The colour -- a warm medium blue
The fabric -- a soft 100 % cotton that feels substantial, and I can move in.
The fit -- I ordered my suggested size, and it was perfect. I can layer a bit underneath.
No distressing
