Love this shirt. I ordered another one in a different color. It does not wrinkle. It is very flattering on. I ordered two sizes up because I would rather it be too large than too small. This one fit perfectly. I will wear it a lot. I already have. Price was great too!

I ordered this blouse with the intent to contemporize my wardrobe. The color (cinammon) is pretty and the material is lightweight and easy care. It is versatile, can be dressed up or down. Upon trying it on, it was about a size too large and didn't do much for my bustline or anything to flatter my figure. Instead of ordering a smaller size, I returned it.

You can wear this blouse open with a tank under it, or closed. The fit is true to size so it can be buttoned and not bunch at the hip. Wasnt sure if I would like the fabric at first (has a little bit of a shine to it) but after I put a shorter tank under it, it made it appear more casual worn open.

I ordered this blouse in brown & really like it. It feels true to size, except for one thing. The buttons on the sleeves make them too tight. The folks who create blouses for Chadwicks seem to have a habit of making the sleeves a bit too small for real people's bicep area. (I've encountered this same problem on two other blouse styles from Chadwicks, and my biceps are average to small in size.) Other than this one annoying problem, it's a very flattering blouse.

I love the feel and fit of this top. Very flattering. It's not the highest quality ever, but it'll last a little while. The biggest downfall is the tiny sleeves! Thankfully, the sleeves unbutton and still look nice, but I would like to be able to wear it the way it's supposed to be worn. If I were to go up a size for the bigger sleeve, the body of the shirt would hang too big. I'm a shirt size 2-4 but hide fat in my arms, so if you're like me, take heed!

I loved this blouse until I tried it on and was so diappointed. It feels very tight across the back. Tight enough I couldnt wear it. I would order a size larger next time.

Perfect fit, gorgeous material and comfortable to boot! Ordered this blouse in black, chocolate and cream. Wore the chocolate brown w/ the tan plaid skimmers also from Chadwick's and they paired beautifully together. I'm not a fan of empire waists, but this blouse was very flattering.

I love the style of this top...the cut is perfect for me, and the colors are great. I have only one complaint that the fabric is too thin, but will wear it for summer only.
