Everlane Boxy Striped Tee Review

Just a super quick review today for those interested in Everlane's boxy striped tee. I purchased the white/black version quite awhile back and I really liked it.  I ended up purchasing an XS in this because it looked so big, and it fit perfectly.  I'm usually a small in everything else Everlane, and about a size 4 in J.Crew/Gap.

Pros:

-The length is perfect.  The front is a little shorter than the back so it looks cropped but you have some coverage in the back

-The heavy weight cotton is perfect for layering under a jacket during the winter months.

-The 3/4 sleeves are the perfect length for the look.

Con:

- The tee is quite boxy so it's going to be an oversized look.

In the end though I returned it because I already have too many striped shirts.  See exhibit A below: {true, you can argue that you can't have too many striped shirts but you can have too many clothes for an airstream}

  

But I would say if you don't have too many striped shirts yet, this one is a great option.  As usual, this review was done on items I've purchased myself and is not sponsored (though yesterday I got $30 from Everlane for giving them some feedback over email, but I haven't spent that yet.  Yay for my first credits from Everlane!).
