this vest is just as pretty as the picture. very attractive and feminine. i ordered 3 colors. the size is true. it is a little lightweight but i don't like to be too warm anyway. i got the vests to put over a bunch of knit tops my middle has outgrown. these vests will hide the problem and now i can wear a bunch of clothes i would otherwise need to give away. i save a lot of money and get to keep tops i love. very happy i bought these.
