Did you order this?


If so, could you please give me a review?


Thanks!

I was honestly worried about this one, but I got it yesterday, and I love it! it's really soft and drapey.  I was concerned that it would show my bra around the arm holes or back, but it doesn't.  It was horribly wrinkled when I took it out of the package, but that can be fixed with a good steaming


ALSO... someone asked me to review this top:



I like the way it fits, but I'm not overly thrilled with the "crinkle" treatment on the torso fabric... I'm going to wash it and see if that helps with the way it lays/feels.  I may re-construct it with different fabric - it wouldn't be a complicated job and I do like the sleeves... it also falls to lower/mid hip on me - not the most flattering place for a horizontal line (the widest point of my hips and right above my thighs) but it might be a good choice for someone with a long torso... I'm wondering about just tucking it in - that would also reduce the exposure of the crinkle fabric...


I also received this top:



cute as all get out, and I like the way it fits. it has a vintage feel to it, and I see it with jeans or khaki shorts - love it.

Thanks, Detroit! How would you say it runs? I am usually a small or xsmall at stores like Banana, etc.

Killa - you're right - I didn't see the additional question.


I find that delia's stuff runs small.  take a look at their sizing charts too to see what looks closest to your measurements.  I typically wear a medium top, but I always order large from delia's and the fit is always right on in that I can get it on and it resembles the fit on the model(for me - but I'm dealing with some pretty muscular shoulders and boobage...)
