@Biftu Well, my tops, shipped from California, finally arrived. As you recall I'm sure, I ordered both colors during a LTS price.
IMO this is a top worth having. The colors look very true to how they look online and in the video. The tops look very different in each color so if you like both colors, I suggest getting both (hopefully it'll be a LTS again). I do like both colors a lot, but like the ruby better, probably because it brightens me up more as I always suspected it would. The blackberry though is also very pretty and very useful. Because it's dark, it looks to me more fall-winter, although truthfully both colors are suitable for all-year round, as is the cotton modal fabric, which is medium weight, not too light and therefore just for warm weather. The blackberry is quite dark although still pretty - lots of shades or purple and I like the scattered pink throughout which does pop. The ruby has all different shades of reds and I'm not quite sure what the contrast color is - probably something like antique taupe - one of her light neutrals or maybe cocoa, although it possibly could be a light yellowish, although I think it's a light tan.
The ruffle is a modest one, not too pronounced.
Now here's the issue for me. I bought both in medium, based on the video, the Click measurements, and reviews. The med. fits but I think I'd be more comfortable getting the larges (although those may be too big; you know my sizing issue and having gained weight and being at the top of mediums mostly doesn't help my sizing issue). Again, the med. works but I'd like more room in the underarm area, I'd prefer no "detection" in the back of my tush bump (which there is with the medium) and a little longer length would be preferable too, although this length is fine on me and would work well for you I'm sure. Hence I say "preferable" because it's not too short or too tight by any means. So I think I'm going to exchange for large, although of course those may be too sloppy looking, as often happens when I order a rayon/span twinset in a large due to the tanks being small. But that's what I think I'm going to do. Again, I really do like this top and think it's worth having in one's wardrobe. And I like the blackberry (which is more muted than the ruby) more than i expected to; I like the ruby better only because it's more flattering on me. I'm still exchanging both though because I want both!
