Ok–there are two items I’ve been coveting but haven’t tried on. Any advice on the fit?
Most of the other JP dresses I’ve tried on have not been great, but I love the cut and fabric of this one:

LOVE both of those pieces – i tried on the cotton/cashmere skirt and tank dress and loved how they felt. i did not try on the boatneck dress, but it looks to be the exact same cut as the striped one i tried on – i would take your normal size, or down, because the cotton/cashmere blend gives a bit, it’s not as “tight” as other dresses, and doesn’t “hold” as much in, but is still very flattering…
and i didn’t try on the polo either, but i did try the v-neck,and again…love the cotton/cashmere blend, but found it to be sheer. so it would have to be layered over a cami or tank top for most occasions. if i was buying either of these, i’d get my normal JP size (2)
Hi Grechen!
Is the cotton gauze shirtdress opaque (the one you feature on Grechen’s Closet)? The price is so great, but it looks a little see-thru in the lighter colors.
Also, do you have any experience with the sizing of the yoga capris? http://www.jamesperse.com/womens-yosemite-heathered-yoga-capri-whl1449yu
Thanks!
yes, it’s sheer. if i feel daring, or it’s really too hot to care, i’ll wear my black one with boyshorts and a cami underneath, but mostly, i think i’ll wear a full cami slip under it – i have a couple of splendid’s long layering camis that i wear for sheer things (they’re really long – like a mini dress) http://www.splendid.com/Layers_Sheer_Stretch_Camisole_/pd/c/108/np/108/p/5822.html_cl_19251
and yes, in the yoga stuff i take my true size, which is 2 – i have a pair of the regular jersey leggings in a size 2 and during the last sale, i got the seamless yoga leggings in 2 also. perfect fit. for reference, i’m about 5’3″ denim size 29
hope that helps!!
