Tie-front linen-blend cropped top

I purchased the top first but could not stop thinking about how great the model looked with the entire outfit on, so I purchased the pants as well. The material is so nice and the color is absolutely breath taking.

This top is like a jacket and is huge, def order size down

When this top arrived it was different than I expected. I expected a tie front version similar to a McNutt linen shirt of which I have many. This is heavier and a little scratchier. The outside is 55% linen 45% viscose(it's lined). I sized down but the arms are a bit short (more like sleeve length in the blue version photos) Reviewer who said it's like a jacket is correct. It's sort of a cross between a shirt and a jacket. It's not bad and I do like it. I think it will work well when a sweater is a bit too heavy but you need something over your shoulders for warmth. I'm 130lbs 34b,5'6" usually xs but sized down to xxs-size is good except sleeves a bit too short for my liking.

Tried this a a topper for a dress and ended up getting the matching linen pant to coordinate as a cute outfit. Fabric is substantial and of good quality. If the top is too revealing you can pair it with an underpinning for more modesty. Purchased my normal size, a medium.

Bought it in white, the quality is great and it is not sheer. Too bad it runs large. I ordered my regular JCrew medium, but small would have been much better.!
