Wow, this is so fresh and beautiful and fun, Kari! You look stunning. I love the green, blue, and yellow together.

Gorgeous outfit! I had an incredibly depressing shopping day today and your outfit gives me hope.

I really loved your outfit and that blouse is so beautiful. Yesterday I wore a tee with similar color and felt truly beautiful. The bag and shoes are so beautiful color. I loved your outfit and you look great in them.

You are a gorgeous creature!!!

I have been eyeing that top. Maybe I'll try it. Love it on you.

Hooray for spring! Your bright colors make me feel happy!

I saw a cream vest at H&M about a month ago, sadly, they didn't have my size. I never saw it again....

I love this outfit, Kari! This outfit is so cheerful and makes me happy to look at it. You look fabulous! The green is so beautiful on you.

Rabbit, I'm very sorry you had a negative shopping experience. I've certainly had those days many many times. In a way I kind of steel myself when I'm shopping for something specific, or trying on an item that I've been longing for for a while - if it doesn't work out, if the piece I love doesn't fit, or they don't have my size, or I can't find what I want, it's not a personal judgment. It just means what I had my eye on isn't available that day. But in the past I've really bashed myself/my body when the clothes didn't work.

Marianna, I'd recommend trying it. The top is so comfortable. I think I'm going to try wearing it tucked in to midi skirts too.

Zapotee, how frustrating! Those illusive cream/white vests... Well, perhaps we can keep an eye out for each other this spring.

Gorgeous blue and green pairing here! I've been eyeballing that top. It has a fun hemline to it.

Kari I have an update on the Spendid top! I got both this and that one in the mail, and have to say that I like the Splendid one a lot more _on me_. The color of this green top is amazing, but the bust is waaay tight in my size (and I am not busty); I'm going to order a size up, but I fear it'll be too big everywhere else However! The Splendid top is superb! The fabric is a wee bit more substantial, the collar is a bit stiffer (big plus for me), and the cut is nice and hourglassy. Sizing seems the same as this one, other than the super tight bust issue. If you like the way it looks and the way this one feels, I think you should totally check it out.

Aida; thanks a million in for the update! I'll see what sizes they have in the colors I like.

(I'm surprised the green top was so tight in the bust on you. I didn't find it so, which was weird! Perhaps the cut is inconsistent between sizes?)

I have this problem often actually, and I think a big part of it is my broad shoulders. They just eat up all the fabric on top! Hope the Splendid works for you too

Aida, I tried on the splendid top today and the funny thing is that I found this one a lot more constricting and tight in the bust and arms compared to the pleione top. How funny! Totally opposite experience.
