I bought this top for yoga in a size Small. I'm 5'2" and for shirts/tops I usually wear sizes Small, 4, and/or 34 C/D.
The shirt was a little tighter in the bust than I would like, but I can still make it work. The length was awesome, coming down to mid/lower butt, and it did not ride up during inversions. The fit around the waist and lower hem were perfect. I was worried about the pocket gaping out, but it did not-it ends up looking more like asymmetrical stitching/gathering.
The pattern (Chalk Kimono) is lovely and I was complimented as soon as I walked into class. I love the mesh detail that goes vertically down the back. The odd thing was that Lolë opted for white elastic at the bottom of the shelf bra. It looks fine, but black would've been better as it shows through the mesh panel. The non-mesh fabric was a little more slippery than I was anticipating, (I probably should've guessed the texture based on the fabric blend of 84% polyester/16% Lycra).
All in all a decent top. If I were to order another Lolë tank, I might consider trying it in Medium.
