I really like this sweater. it is surprisingly warm. it is not very form fitting (which can slenderize), but i enjoy layering with a lacy tank and don't have to worry about sucking in the guy either ;). i'm 5' 8" and typically wear between a 6-8, the medium was definitely baggy, i ended up with a small in 2 colors.!

oh, and the bow detail really does add a fanciness to an otherwise comfy/snuggle sweater.
