Great wrap ...

It's a very versatile ... would be excellent for both ... going out for drinks. It'll pack well and does not wrinkle, so anyone travelling for ... am somewhat petite, I also purchased the red version (which is actually more of a ruby red, than the bright red color appearing in the picture) in an XS Petite, which is my usual size in BR dresses. The XS regular fits me better, for some reason. After trying on the XSP I completely understood what the other ladies meant by needing a safety pin to keep the opening closed in a breeze! It's a real leg show. But, I did not have that problem with the XS regular.




Great ... no surprises!
This ... looks exactly as the picture, which I was very pleased with. I can fluctuate from a size 12 to 14 and I ordered the large, and it worked perfectly! Not tight, and not too loose. However, if you do have a larger chest (like me), it definitely shows a lot of cleavage, so you will need to wear something underneath if you wear it to ... Otherwise, the fit and feel is perfect! The length of the skirt and the sleeves were also perfect. Can't recommend this ... enough.

Non-iron fitted sateen shirt
$59.50




Works for me
I read the reviews and had no idea what size to get or whether anything would ... pleasantly surprised to find that a size 4 (my normal size) works perfectly. I'm a 34C and the bust is just fine, although I wouldn't wear a really padded bra with it. The fabric is beautiful, the shirt launders nicely and it's very flattering.




Perfect work shirt!
In addition to the flattering style, this shirt offers the perfect color for work being a refreshing alternative to the traditional black. I paired it with a sand colored pencil skirt and neutral heels to make it one of my favorite work outfits!
i REALLY wanted everyone else to be wrong
My all time favorite button down shirts are from Banana. I think I bought them all the way back in 2007. They fit perfectly, and very importantly, the placing of the first button below the button at the neck was perfect. I say this because the buttoning on the current version is so awkward, such that if you button the first button, which hits halfway between the bust and neck, it seems overly stuffy and buttoned too high. On the other hand, if you leave that first button unbuttoned, the next button down hits right around the bust, so you look like a floozy if you happen to work at a law firm. My old favorite shirt had its first button positioned a couple inches below this one, so that it didn't look overly buttoned up and ridiculously conservative. Just look at the picture of the model; if you saw her from the side, you'd totally catch a glimpse of her lady lumps! Please work on the button placement so I can restock my work wardrobe!! Also, the material is a tad thin for my liking. Sadly, I'll be taking these shirts back.
