opinions on this anthro blouse

Joina · Kenneth Cole

Hmmm.... at first glance I thought it was too busy... but looking at it more and more I could see it with some cute outfits. I guess it depends on the setting and the rest of the outfit.

It looks frumpy on the mannequin but may be cute on. I think a lot of the stuff on the Anthro site is really deceptive because it usually looks and fits totally different in the brick and morter store.

I couldn't agree more. Their clothes always look amazing on the web site and even in their paper catalog. Then when you go to the store and see them up close, it's hard to believe they are the same clothes. A lot of them are made of very cheap-looking fabrics, especially the ones made of cotton.

That silk blouse, on the other hand, may well be really nice. I haven't seen it in person, though.

Alegria · Kate Spade

I don't care for it. It looks a bit matronly to me.

Dizzy · Marc Jacobs

It says old lady going out to brunch, to me, but it might be cute on.

I didn't try it on, but the silk fabric is nice and soft.

I think it looks like it's more suitable for an older lady

I think i like it. I looked at it on the model (tried to post the pic but for some reason I couldn't) and I think it looks soft and pretty. I think the weird thing about how it looks on the mannequin is that it looks kind of stiff, but on the model it looks like it has nice movement. It also looks like it would be comfortable and flattering.

I like it but am skeptical about the quality too.

Drew · Gucci

I have it. I think it's ok as far as quality, but worth the moola. In this case the top looks just like it does on the model when worn. It is really cute, but I haven't worn it with anything other than grey slacks. Anyone have any outfit ideas?

I like that blouse. I tried it on a few months ago, but didn't end up buying it. It is pretty cute on. For me, I knew I would only wear it to work, so I didn't think the CPW would make it worthwhile for me.
