I don't know why I insist on buying clothing a size or two larger than I ware. but here I am again. that being said, I always tailor my clothes so no real biggy. wore to store Γ nd loved the feel of the material. it's a cotton blend. not heave, would never be enought for a New England winter but really perfect for California cool nights, spring, fall and winter. it's the perfect material for indoor everyday or a outting shopping. very nicely made. didn't shrink when washed, nor wrinkled. very nice outfit. will buy another one, this time more in my size.
