Okay, so I was so so excited to get this cardi wrap (thank you Rar and LSU!), but now I am not sure about it.
Two issues: First, I had to get a large b/c medium was sold out and I didn't think a small would fit. But, now I feel like the large is too big everywhere but fits in the chest. (My chest is 38" so technically I'm usually a "large" but I usually size down b/c I hate things being baggy on top). For example, the arms of this just seem baggy. Are they supposed to be like this? Second, I don't know if I'm wearing it right - it doesn't seem to be wrapping as "seamlessly" as I thought it would - like some sections are a bit lumpy and I'm worried it makes me look fat.

Alright Lisa- I think you should return it and go for a smaller size. Where did you get it from? The store? online? can the store do a search and charge send it to you in a medium? I know BR can do this its just finding a SA that is willing to search the computers for it and call the store for you. I think the medium would fit perfectly. The large just looks too big and sloppy all over.
Thanks, lsu - well, I ordered it through CS b/c it is no longer online and she said it was sold out in medium, so I think it is small in ivory or medium in black (but I really want ivory.)
Here's a better pic with jeans. Maybe I'm just not the right body type for this?

I think the second picture is definately an improvement, but how much work was it to get it that way? And do you think it will stay put? I guess my issue with it is: is it worth the hassle? Maybe after you get used to it it won't be a hassle to put on or fussy to keep it that way....but that's why i decided against the whole cardi wrap idea. Although I know some people absolutely love theirs, which is what peaked my curiosity to begin with!
so all that to say...i'm no help.
