Is this blouse worth it?

Kelly · Hermes

honestly, I don't think it could be flattering on anyone and I wouldn't spend that much on a silhouette that I think is fairly trendy. It just doesn't show off the model's body at all, and she's a *model*.

Kitty · Hermes

I think it would be cute for the beach or around the pool or running casual errands, but I wouldn't spend that much on it and like ttara said, it's not very flattering.

Ditto. You'd need scary long skinny arms and legs to pull that off I think, and being 5'10" or so probably wouldn't hurt either. Besides that, I think it could come off a bit juvenile - I think it's the combination of the print, trapeze style, and ruffled sleeves together. The print on a more fitted style top would be really cute, so I can see why you're drawn to it!

Thanks ladies! I'm glad I posted here instead of buying it like I was going to! I'll pass on it unless it goes on sale for a price I can't pass up.

Elle - I totally see what you mean about it being juvenile. I didn't even notice that before. I think I had my J.Crew shopping goggles on. wink
