I did as others suggested and ordered a size up. And it fit perfectly. It is loose around the waist, but quite flattering and will hide those extra holiday pounds. The color is bright and true to the picture. I may need to order another one.
This piece is so dam pretty it could be placed in a frame & enjoyed as art. The artist did a beautiful job with the embroidery. The color is rich & vibrant. The style & fabric are excellent. Quality is top notch. A must have for your wardrobe to be worn year round.
