One last review until I hit J Crew again. The last of the Mardi Gras non-purchases. The J Crew slub cotton ripple ruffle short sleeve tee (#13620, $39.50) comes in 6 colors. Gigi had a really great review of the tee. She wasn't a fan of the tee on her figure. I like the tee but it didn't totally wow me, at least not for $39.50 when there were other items more worthy of my shopping bag. I tried it on in heather dune.
First of all, I love the length. I also just love the detail around the neckline - it is several alternating layers of the tee fabric and silk in a flat ruffle - very pretty, very nice detail - could look great under a cardi. I am definitely interested in trying this on again - and this time in the misty lavender. At the time, I just wasn't feeling the lavender yet (it was too cold outside) - and I think the lavender could look fantastic on.
But we need to talk about fit. That's the biggest issue. If you are interested in this tee, size down. I mean really down - way, way down - all the way downtown. (ok, I'll stop now) I have it on here in a medium, and I think I'd like to try on the small next time I go. And I NEVER take a small in their tees. But I'm still not sure I would pay full price for this. We will have to see.What do you think?
