Very boxy but nice style

Hard to wear if you are apple shaped. Bulky and boxy but when zipped, emphasizes all the wrong thing. Great style though. Maybe good over a body con dress or tight jeans with tucked in tight shirt.

Great for weekends or vacations

Very nice fit, perfect even on my cubby arms, big boobs and over my belly. Light linen fabric-maybe a little much for some offices but perfect for the weekends, summer weddings, or vacation.

Sweet but modest

The way the top sits, it's so modest (read: zero cleavage) that it was hard not to feel like I was headed to a country church service.

Thin knit

Not quite as flattering as it looks in the picture. A knit (no zipper needed) but also the lack of structure makes it not quite sharp enough to look excellent.

Figure hugging without being overly tight. Shows off curves but good for folks with a tummy. Can be dressed up or down, worn out or to a work event.

Black Halo notoriously runs 3 sizes too small.

I tried and tried to rent from black halo because their stuff is cute in theory but their 18 runs like a 12 so no go.

Those were both small enough that it made it no longer look (or feel) good on a busty babe like myself.
