Unfortunately (or fortunately for my wallet), most of the items did not work for me. But I am keeping the Sprint V-Back tank! I love this tank. I ordered it in 2 sizes - XS and M, because the S was sold out. I thought there was a good chance I'd have to return both. But I am actually keeping the size M! Though admittedly, S would probably have been best. Oh well, I'm pretty happy with the M for the looser fit!
Here's the XS and M on me side by side - XS on the left and M on the right... not that different from the front actually. XS is still loose fitting, just a little tighter than the M.
The back straps that go diagonally across are what made the biggest difference for me - the XS on the left here just looks pulled and a bit too tight - the V back portion is very uneven looking. The M just looks more relaxed and effortless. As soon as I saw the back, I knew XS was getting returned.
I think size S would have been a better fit because instead of drooping down, the straps would look more like how they look on the Splits model:
But oh well, I'm not mad at how the M fits. It doesn't even look too loose from the side view, so I'm happy with it.
I also had to get the Devon tank in size M too. I ordered XS last time and thought it fit too tight and short. So I went back to order the S. But as I was paying, it disappeared from my cart! I didn't even think that was possible because the whole point of adding to your cart and getting a 10 minute count down timer kind of implies you have 10 minutes to complete the transaction. I still had 4 minutes left!! Grrrrr!!! I was very annoyed by this.
Turns out, size M is just too big from the side view and does nothing for me. So I really did need the small in this style. But oh well, I shouldn't really be buying another tank right now anyways.
The pictures on the right of the next 3 photos are the size XS from my last order which I posted already - I do prefer size M over XS if I had to pick one.
The back in the M fits SOOOO much better:
I just don't really care for how the M looks from the side... I think I can save my pennies and do better with a different tank style.
And I did! I actually bought a very light blue colored Ashby tank from ebay a couple days ago! It's so light that it's almost white. I don't know the name of this color, but I like it.
Here it is on the right compared to white on the left - very similar!
Ok so anyway, back to my Hautelook order lol... I returned the rest of these because I'm not that crazy about any of them:
Breeze cropped tee in navy - looks good on the model I think:
Not so much on me (size S)... I think it kind of ends at a weird spot on my body and I don't know when I would wear this - I wouldn't feel very comfortable wearing it with no shirt under to the gym:
And I think it looks very blah with a shirt under lol:
I did like that the back was a different color though - just something a bit more unique:
I do really like Splits59 Sabrina tanks (and I already have 2 here and here). If I didn't already have so much stuff, I'd for sure have kept this one.
Lastly, I returned the Victory Jersey Muscle tee in blossom/pacific. I also got it in size S. It is made of tencel. I thought the fit was kind of off. It's an ok top but nothing spectacular. I don't care for the neckline so much either. Plus the material seems to wrinkle so easily - this is how it looks right out of the bag:
There's actually mesh under the arms which I did not know before I bought it:
So I ended up keeping only one top from this entire order. I returned everything else to Nordstrom Rack, and it went pretty smoothly. That's very nice and convenient about shopping on Hautelook!
