Happy with purchase
Color: White Floral, Size: 3X-Large
This shirt is soft and comfortable. I love the sleeve length. The print is nice. It looks nice with jeans, casual pants, and skirts making it versatile. My only complaint is that I have already noticed fading after two washes.

Great top for a great price.
Color: Gray Floral, Size: Large
This top comes past my hips so I love the length. It is so attractive and comfortable and the price was incredible! I bought two other tops by Zeagoo and am very pleased with them also. Beautiful colors!

Love these tunics!
Color: Aprioct Boho Yg9, Size: XX-Large
I absolutely love these tunics! They are very figure flattering & so soft & comfortable to wear. The material is on the thinner side so they are great for warmer weather. I have very sensitive skin so many fabrics irritate me but this one is fabulous. I would wash on gentle & hang to dry to keep fabric looking nice. After wearing the first one, I ordered 3 more…

Pretty Tunic Top
Color: Willowfloral, Size: X-Large
Very happy with this tunic top! Long enough for me to feel good about wearing it with leggings, but not SO long it feels like a dress. Really good V-neck, not just a little notch at the top that some brands call a v-neck. I ordered the teal floral XL and was very happy with the fit and drape. I'm a size 18W with a 42D bust and a chubby waistline. I often end up in XXL or 1X tops, but this fit well as an XL. Nice feel to the material and a bargain at the price!

Very flattering in my opinion
I'm 5'6 and no hips, so I really liked that the length is a little longer and flares a little at the hips giving my chunky but not curvy figure some illusion of a girlish figure. The pattern and colors were pretty & I'd say pretty close to the ad. Great blues and a coral/peach ... not sure my camera did it justice. I like the pleat at the back ... I feel that it minimizes the bra bulge that can happen at times. I stepped out after try on and my guy said it looked great (he's a truth teller with clothes) so that made me feel better because sometimes I see what I want to see at first & later see the flaws. I do see the case instructions ... getting used to hang to dry all things lately. Feels a little more nylon-ish but not bad. Its not super thin and light where I think it's a clingy thing. Really do like this shirt
