RE: Weekend Shopping










Love this! Super comfortable and very flattering. The color is nice and bright. I see it being something I wear a lot this summer and am thinking about getting another color as well. The fabric is thicker than I expected and seems to be well made. Runs TTS.

(the new long tanks). The colors on these are gorgeous (I also got the light pink "flipflop" color)! They run smaller/narrower than the regular length so I have to exchange for the next size up. They are also a little thinner than the regular ones from last year. I wouldn't pay more than the sale price for them, I don't think.


I like these a lot. The fabric is thicker than I expected and the overall look is flattering. Not the greatest quality, but could be worse and worth it for the price. The cuffs are a little weird and kind of flare out a bit, but it could just be that my thighs don't fill them as much as they should. I think I'm going to try sizing down and see if that helps. That might be too small though. My regular size was a little big, but still wearable. For the amount I plan to wear them. they're worth it.


This is really cute, but I'm going to have to alter it to fit better. I could probably size down, but I want it to be a little looser. I think if I move the button over about a half inch and add a hook and eye a few inches above it, it will give it a more fitted, flattering look. Now, it looks too baggy in the chest area.Hits at the top of my hip and the sleeves come just past my elbows. I liek it a lot though and will hopefully wear it tomorrow.


 


sorry for the weird formatting (didn't feel like copy/pasting all the images again). If you have other specific questions, feel free to ask!

Thanks for the review, I was wondering how the skirt looked IRL, I feel its always hit or miss with their prints.  I'm glad to hear its still cute IRL.

just adding my two cents cause i have the blazer and tanktops as well...


 


the blazer does need some sort of extra fitting, however, im super lazy and just going with it as is. the most important thing that i noticed, though, was that after i washed it it got sorta funky around the hems and psuedo pockets (flap but no actual pocket), and will require ironing. the hems "rolled" and now don't lie flat without ironing. does that make sense? i can try to elaborate if needed. it's not a big deal though, because the ironing would only take 30 seconds or so since the rest of it was fine.


the new version of the tank tops are even better than the old ones. slightly longer and more fitted, like ilovechoo said. the colors are way better than the old version as well. i have, i think, ALL of the colors of both versions because im a tank top freak so if anybody wants to know about the colors, just ask.

Choo - is that the yellow skirt?  Or is yours green?  I keep seeing commercials for ON and the yellow and pink skirts look really cute.  Thanks for the review!

Relrel, I must be your twin because I live and die in tank tops.


The skirt is really cute, I was going to get it but they didn't have my size in the yellow.  I guess I'll be having to visit a different ON this weekend
