Vibrant colors
Color: Mz870-red Print, Size: X-Large
Very beautiful blouse & colors! I was very impressed with the quality and the soft material. Can use for casual everyday wear, but elegant enough to wear with heels and slacks. It came inside a compressed bag and folded neatly.

as described
Color: A-mz721- Multicolor, Size: X-Large
This is loose and comfortable. Good fit for the sizing. Fabric is thin enough to be cool and thick enough that it does not show everything under the shirt. Cute, can wear anywhere.

Order larger size for "Loose Fit"
Color: Mz907-purple, Size: 3X-Large
I bought 5 or 6 of these tops in a variety of patterns and colors to get me through the summer. They're nice but expect smaller than US sizing by about 1 or 1 1/2 sizes. I ordered a larger size with that in mind and it fits to my body with no "loose fit" as shown in the advertisement.
The tag on the inside left is extremely annoying and just happens to be the best sewn piece, so remove with care or you'll have a hole in the seam. Ask me how I know.
The material has a bit of stretch and is somehow softer to the touch on the outside than on the inside.
Other than that, they're comfortable enough, lightweight but kept their shape and size when laundered, nice colors and patterns. One of the tops was a little more vibrant in color than pictured, but overall a good purchase for the price considering I didn't need to drive from store to store trying to find summer tops. Consider the source and look for a few loose threads. Expect shipping delays with customs. My tops came in 3 different shipments over time.
