Hi guys, finally a Grana review for you today after that parade of Everlane reviews. To be honest, some of Grana's new summer items haven't wowed me as much as other brands, but this linen sleeveless shirt is definitely an exception. I was lucky enough to get this free from Grana to review, but I'll try not to let that color my honest opinion of it. I really like this top and I'm 99% sure it's because it's awesome and not because I got it for free, lol.
First a note on sizing, I got this in a small and I think it's the perfect fit. Like I always repeat in Grana reviews, go to their size finder on their website and look at the measurements every time you order a new piece since their size finders have really precise measurements (and their sizing can be sometimes a bit all over the place). I did find that the small in this does show a bit of midriff on me but that's because I have quite a long torso. But I don't mind since the cropped look helps to lengthen my short legs.
I also love that this top has a pleat in the back that allows the top to poof out a bit. It gives the top more volume, which I love. The linen, as usual for Grana linen is on the softer side and this works great for this cropped top (I think if it was stiffer, it might actually be too much volume). And even though it's a thinner linen, it's not too sheer (nothing a nude bra can't handle) because the top does fall away from the body and isn't fitted.
What do you think?
{Wearing: Grana sleeveless linen shirt, thrifted Coach belt (similar here), Mott & Bow jeans (review coming soon), Everlane canvas backpack (review coming soon), Everlane Form Slide sandals (reviewed here)}
I actually really like the look here with the casual loose jeans and slide sandals. Also this linen top will really help with that "farmer tan" I'm starting to get across my triceps (ugh). I'm going to need to even that out asap.
Anyway I highly recommend getting this summer top! I think it'd also look really cute with a high-waisted denim skirt, or I might try pairing it with some overalls.
