J Crew - Beatrice blouse

J Crew's Beatrice blouse (41525, $118) came in muslin, perfect olive and smoldering brick. 100% silk shell, the lining is 95% poly/5% spandex. It's now $49.99 online.

Muslin

Size 2 - perfect olive - I tried it on a couple months ago, without the camisole that comes with it.

Part of the online description says this top ' boasts a ruched yoke (with rustic raw edges).' I definitely didn't like the raw edges. They looked more rough than raw up close and prone to more fraying.


We always love interior snaps to keep bra straps in place.


This is the interior cami. I liked the Beatrice better than I expected, but prefer the J Crew's Beatrice blouse (irl pics). It has a free flow, with no waist cinching. I don't have to worry about whether I have a waist or the drawstring hits in a good spot, which can be issues for me in general. No interior cami to fuss with or wonder if it will fit or not. Notice that the size 2 Beatrice fit me pregnant, without the cami. I am usually a 4 in J Crew tops. Also, the peasant blouse is machine wash. Hel-lo! As far as Beatrice sizing, I'm guessing you take your regular size if you want the cami to fit. If you could wear something else underneath besides the cami that comes with, size down at least one.


Blogger --> I don't know what's up with Blogger. Some people still aren't able to comment and I have no clue why that is. I haven't changed anything lately. So no, I'm not blog blockin' ya ;)
