Promising review: "This is the perfect sweater. I never buy many colors of the same item, but I did for this piece. It’s on the smaller side for sweaters, definitely not oversized. so size up if that’s what you’re looking for. I’m 5'1” and 110 pounds and a Medium fit me perfect. It’s not cropped but not long.
