anthro trumpet sleeve blouse — opinions needed
Permalink Closed

hey girls — i know i haven't been around much lately, but i'm hoping you can help me decide if this top is cute (keep) or out of control (return). i feel comfortable in it and i think it's a cute top, but the sleeves are pretty billowy as you can see. it might be a case of "cuter on the hanger", eh? (OOOOO — my 1,000th post!)

on the mannequin:





on me:

Wow! Huge difference between the anthro shot and how it looks on you. I think the "bell" of the sleeves is a but much. It's a cute top otherwise, but I vote return. :(

whoa, I really like it on the hangar but the sleeves aren't really working for me. It makes it look like its too big. And it reminds me of the Seinfeld puffy shirt.

Yeah, I agree with the others.  The sleeves in person are a bit much, IMO.  Bummer, cuz the rest of it is super cute.

Don't feel bad.  I got sucked in on another version of that top with the big sleeves from Anthro.  It was way too much on and I returned mine too.

It would of been so cute if the sleeves were slimmer at the top of the shoulders.  Now you can buy something else

drew — which top was it that you bought/returned? i am so enamored with those big sleeve blouses, but i don't want to make another mistake by ordering a different version of what i already have. i'm planning returning it at the store — i guess i can try a few on instead of ordering.
