It's a bit loose but I think it's more elegant that way, slightly draping when tucked in. I would not size down, but I never wear things tight to begin with.

I'm an 8.5 and I tried an 8. The length was fine, but they were too tight, especially when you consider how lined the insides are. Because my feet are slightly wide I didn't know if going to the 9 would have fixed it for me. I never exchanged them and found out though. The fabric Sperry's looked a lot cheaper than the Sorels I also ordered, so I kept the Sorels.<br /><br />If you have narrow feet you may want to order TTS/order down for half sizes.Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17265529601244825818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-18480144937729376202015-11-25T05:31:04.397-05:002015-11-25T05:31:04.397-05:00I love my Old Navy waffle tees, bought boys size X...I love my Old Navy waffle tees, bought boys size XXL and they are warm and soft, plus they were like five bucks on sale.TeriLynn13https://www.blogger.com/profile/15542257181809618994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-22280442200441949982015-11-25T05:28:54.199-05:002015-11-25T05:28:54.199-05:00I had the black watch plaid version from a couple ...I had the black watch plaid version from a couple of years ago and I thought they ran small and narrow, especially if you want to wear thick socks.

It's so nice to see most of the drop shoulders and exposed zippers gone. The oversized cuts are fewer as well. The beautiful colors continue to be consistent. I've spent more time in the store this fall season. <br /><br />I recently mentioned liking the textured metallic-dot dress. <a href="http://bit.ly/1YtzH2n" rel="nofollow"><b>Here's the review</b></a>.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06119918515498248436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-1635482154479072122015-11-25T01:09:48.081-05:002015-11-25T01:09:48.081-05:00Chateau parka, why must you taunt me?!

I'm a go-to Small and this seemed to fit in the shoulders and arm length. Thought the overall length was fine too - didn't think it was too short. I was pressed for time so I didn't have the opportunity to try a Medium. How do I say this . . . I'm not a chesty woman, but this shirt really hugs (and enhances) the curves. So form-fitting at the very least, and perhaps a bonus for some women. I found the weight to be fine - it's a tee not a sweater so I wasn't expecting something super-thick, but it had more heft than Perfect Fit or Painter tees. So Cate, perhaps you will be pleasantly surprised :-)JenniferDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05330952312382241389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-14706045267415196432015-11-24T21:27:33.397-05:002015-11-24T21:27:33.397-05:00I'm totally with Silver Lining when it comes t...I'm totally with Silver Lining when it comes to short sweaters. I usually call or email customer service to give me the length measurement for any sweater now before I order. Sometimes I'm shocked to hear 21" but its described as a tunic vs a crop etc.<br />There is no way of knowing how petite the models may or may not be so the pictures are not a good indicator. Same with the "hits at hip" descriptor...whose hip? <br />I don't mind the roll out. A few nice and different pieces for sure. I feel like something special is missing though that should have been there in place of about 50% of the buffalo plaid and fair isle offerings. Enough already. There are other ways of doing comfy casual, and I wish Jcrew thought of that.sunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08615231893297330454noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1317882250647868056.post-41723916148275751412015-11-24T21:02:43.513-05:002015-11-24T21:02:43.513-05:00The edged lace blouse (marine salt) is absolutely ...The edged lace blouse (marine salt) is absolutely gorgeous.
