I love this top, it's adorable and it looks so cute on you. Sounds like it was a real ordeal, but from the way it looks it was totally worth it!!

I hated this in the magazine, but somehow, you have pulled it off. Nice work - the collar looks incredible!

I didn't think much of this pattern when I saw it in the mag, but your alterations really made it work for you! The color is also fantastic on you! Excellent review, thanks.

I love it when you can take a blah BWOF pattern and turn it into something like this. There was nothing that attracted me to the magazine version, but this looks adorable on you.
