I unfortunately had to return this blouse because of two reasons. First of all the size fit larger than I expected. I normally fit quite well in most medium tops, but this shirt seemed large and baggy in all the wrong places. Specifically, I noticed that the back of the blouse did not lay as elegantly as it does in the rear view of the pictures here. The top half of the back seemed to pooch out and slump over the middle tie, regardless of how loose or tight I tied the shirt. Secondly, this top is indeed thin, which I know was one of the reasons I was excited to wear it in this late Texas heat. However, it seemed a bit poorly made for being so light - the tie and the edges around where the tie comes out from the shirt to be tied, are sewn a bit poorly. My specific shirt also seemed to have a rip in the fabric near the button holes that was patched over with white stitching, and whether or not the design was meant to be that way, it looked out of place. It's a pretty blouse, maybe I just got a poor example. If you're wanting to give this a shot, I'd try a size smaller perhaps?
