Gorgeous embroidery, even prettier in person. Beautiful color palette - the main fabric color is a bit darker and bluer than it looks on my screen, but I still really like it. The interior lining is super comfortable, and I appreciate that the string tie is one piece with a loop it runs through on each side, which helps keep it more secure and structured (kind of like a shoelace). I also bought the matching pants, and these look great paired together.
Despite being slightly on the shorter side (5'2.5"), I sized up to medium for more shoulder room and everything still fits nicely! The sleeves are pretty long (only my fingertips really poke out past them if I hold my arm straight down), but I don't think the small would be much different there, so it's just a feature to keep in mind if you're generally short and/or have short arms. I think it works well with the shape and vibe of these sleeves, so it's not a negative to me. All in all, I can't wait to wear this piece more!
