I'm a large to medium in most of Gap's tops (and a large in most other stores) and I ordered this in a large. The fit is pretty TTS. It is definitely cropped, I will warn you. I have larger (jiggly) upper arms, and a lot of short sleeved tops fit pretty tight, and this is no exception. I've gotten used to that so it's no big deal for me. i will also mention that it's not quite as nice looking as in the picture. I would take a pic of me wearing it, but my camera's broken at the moment. Oh, and the sleeve's are shorter than they look in the picture. The picture makes them almost look three-quarter but it's definitely short sleeved.

 


Thanks for the detailed review relrel! I was thinking of ordering it and some other stuff online, but I think I'll go check it out in-store.

I was given a sofa and love seat pair in taupe leather a week or so ago...for free! A couple from my old church thought I could use them (they knew I hated the green plaid sofa that I'd found thrifting) when they redid their livingroom.
So I hit up Target and was lucky to find pillows for sale. I went with a taupe and brown stripe, teal and brown stripe, and dusty teal suede. Love them!
Now I need to primer and repaint the whole downstairs...the walls currently clash with the new livingroom furnishings!

That's awesome!  What color are you going to paint?

Yup! (it's also here, in the 70% off clearance section, btw)

Top:8S-210-570    Bottom:8S-210-572

And both are still available in XS, since I believe that's what you'd need?

Thanks to Elle, I got this super cute swimsuit:
V262883.jpg

and I ordered this T-shirt from J. Crew.  They had a short sleeve cashmere sweater like this a couple of years ago, and I've kicked myself for not getting it.  This isn't the same, but it will fill the hole in my heart smile

Also debating these pants...
