Hmmm ... I will see if I can come up with a good tucker chambray shirt. tiffany rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16105832290440620053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611148491928916349.post-3971709331433964132013-05-09T01:33:48.506-07:002013-05-09T01:33:48.506-07:00Hi gigi.

I've seen how you wear your chambray shirt and I think it's quite flattering on you. They may lose that casual flair if they are more fitted. tiffany rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16105832290440620053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611148491928916349.post-85115718011132190412013-05-09T01:24:19.505-07:002013-05-09T01:24:19.505-07:00Andrea, I completely agree, which is why I have so...Andrea, I completely agree, which is why I have so many of them.

Did you also know about people stockpiling the shirts with the third collar button when BB decided to discontinue that? ;) Connecting on a little-known trivia was the first connection with husby when we met. tiffany rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16105832290440620053noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611148491928916349.post-56898970424008713702013-05-09T01:15:21.581-07:002013-05-09T01:15:21.581-07:00Isn't that awful?

The copywriter's words are bad but what's worse if when I believe her!<br /><br />The Liberty print blazer turned out to be one of my favorite purchases. The fabric is very light so it's great for really warm days but has enough body to keep the structure of the jacket.

And I have another Madewell shirt that was supposed to be a shrunken fit in size XX-small but it might as well have been XX-large, maybe it's the same one you said, I'll have to look that up.

I know what you mean about distressing, I like things crisp and clear but I do like that top shirt on you. Looks great with the floral jacket. Love how you mix all the patterns. My only issue with my chambray shirt is that I wear it way too much and it should be more fitted to be flattering(but then I'd never wear it)About Last Weekendhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04716571630418078937noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611148491928916349.post-84238350817731375312013-05-06T15:29:39.057-07:002013-05-06T15:29:39.057-07:00Love all of these!

I have a similar one but I don't know if it's the western denim or denim western or none of the above. But I like it anyway.<br /><br />I did know about Brooks Brothers inventing the button-down collar. Apparently it was a huge hit because before that men had the two-piece collar shirts, which were a huge pain. I find little trivia like that very interesting but I'm sure I'm quite alone in that.xoxohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12336645422459479330noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611148491928916349.post-86990784195716856672013-05-06T08:35:51.295-07:002013-05-06T08:35:51.295-07:00I had major mix ups with the denim western and wes...I had major mix ups with the denim western and western denim shirt.

I tried on a bunch of chambray/denim shirts from J.Crew and Madewell. <br /><br />My favorite for fit is the Western jean shirt in desert willow wash from Madewell. I got the small and it's nicely fitted. It is denim though so it's thicker than the Keeper. Since it's not a petite, the sleeves are a little long.<br /><br />The Denim Boyshirt in campground wash from Madewell was awful. The description says shrunken fit but it's far from it.<br />lolcatgirlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09588550035142568919noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611148491928916349.post-53629274041455609452013-05-05T07:20:11.896-07:002013-05-05T07:20:11.896-07:00thank you for these reviews - it's hard to fin...thank you for these reviews - it's hard to find a nicely fitted chambray shirt especially when (like me) you're shorter than the average height. your keeper is a winner! phiphis bloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16530962364891572447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611148491928916349.post-20675866751892527842013-05-05T05:04:04.214-07:002013-05-05T05:04:04.214-07:00I have the keeper chambray and love it,but you are...I have the keeper chambray and love it,but you are right it is oversized.<br />Got the 0,but could have easily size down to 00,oh well:)inahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15621372181652727601noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5611148491928916349.post-50939141099759484862013-05-05T04:34:21.173-07:002013-05-05T04:34:21.173-07:00okay that is funny!
