The reason I really wanted to make an order was the Addison LS top in white/neon citrus. It looks so summery! I need more tops in this kind of relaxed style which I can wear to and from the gym, or as a casual top. It could maybe even be ok for work, on a Friday or something.
I contemplated for a while whether to order size S or XS. I ended up ordering XS since all my long sleeve tops from Lorna Jane are XS, and this style looks pretty loose fitting anyway. I was just afraid it might be too short. But I think XS is actually good! It is on the short side, but it's not "too short". I can also wear a tank under it.
So as you can see, it is a rather thin and semi-sheer top. It's exactly what I expected! The weight is perfect for my climate. The material is pretty soft and I can definitely see myself wearing this often.
The next item I got is the Lena tank.
I guess I like these mesh muscle tanks! My sizing in LJ tanks is all over the place. I have probably equal amount of size S and size XS, which makes ordering online really difficult. I opted for size S in this tank. But turns out, it is too big. I'm going to go to the store and see if I can exchange for XS.
It actually looks ok from the front. But the side and back just look way to oversized with a lot of excess material hanging over.
Other than the sizing, I think it's a cute style! It's also one of their lower priced tanks, at $45 vs most of the other tanks which are over $60.
The second tank I bought is the Summer Haze tank. I didn't get it as a workout tank. I thought it would be a nice casual tank to have. I like the picture of Sydney on the tank. Maybe because I'm nostalgic lol. I always remember fondly the year I spent living in Australia.
I also got this tank in size S. It also is a bit too baggy. But I decided to return it because of the material. I had hoped that it would be a soft flowy material. But instead, it feels like a stiff t-shirt material. I'm just not crazy about it and will save my $45 for something else.
Now, the free tank - Ballet tank in neon peach melba marl is actually the best tank of the 3!
The material of this tank is a soft marl and it has a better drape. I got it in size S too but it fits much better than the previous two tanks. It has a nice and effortless feel to it. The back design is also quite pretty. I actually would have paid for it and have been happy - it's priced at $39! But of course I'm happier to have gotten it for free. =P
Funny thing is, I'm wearing the Lorna Jane Sunrise bra under it, and the straps are the exact same color and design as the tank!
There's also a mesh area on the front:
This free tank promotion is a pretty good deal if you think about it. If you spend $150 there, you get about 2 or 3 items, plus this tank, which makes the average per item to $40-50. Not bad.
Love the Ballet tank-- i have that bra also -- I just ordered that and a pink burnout tank -- they have code 30 off 70 --pretty great, right? JULEP30
