The blouse is very pretty, & I rarely risk sizing down when the material is as inflexible as the material of this blouse is (it’s not stretchy AT ALL). I also normally don’t mind clothes being baggy (because it’s incredibly rare that I find something that fits me, let alone something that’s actually too big for me! I’m always too big for the clothes!), but this tops just feels awkwardly big. I could’ve gone one size down. The ties on the sleeves make me insane, & I plan on either cutting them off & sewing a permanent button on them, or tying them in a tiny bow, sewing it shut, & cutting off the excess.
