I like D&Co pants, but just be warned about their tops - this 95/5 fabric is stretchy and thick.  If you are busty, go with the bigger size. It stretches in a weird way.  I know a lot of women like it, hence it is their most popular fabric, but I cannot wear it - it's rubbery and way too heavy for warm weather.  Please understand that I am not saying this to criticize the brand, however, I don't think they are up front about the fabric when they present it.

I would have ordered a few of these if allowed to choose colors.  There seems to be one color that I don't want in every pair.  So sorry, not this time.

@house_cat, thank you so much for your reply!  I really appreciate knowing about the material.  I mainly want something like this for spring when it's not overly warm.  Sounds like I should order the XS if I decide to try it, since I'm not busty.  Will think on it a bit more; thank you!

There is nothing "special" about today's special value.  two plain tee shirts.  Not a fan of the perfect jersey fabrication either.  I've had it and returned it because it's too heavy and rubbery.

I'm interested in a couple of these sets but according to the chest measurements, I'm right in between the large and x-large. The large is 44.5 inches, the xl is 48.5 and I measure about 46 inches so I'm not sure what to order. I called customer service and all she told me was it was up to me what size to order so not much help.

I'm not ordering, but I'd order an xs based on what you've shared.

I love elbow length sleeves.  Macy's Karen Scott brand has these for $10-12 a piece and you don't have to buy two and can choose what you want.  See nothing "special" about this offer.

Well, I changed my mind and bought the TSV in aqua/azalea. When I recieved the email it did not look flattering on, but after seeing the presentations I think it will look good on me. I think it it the curved bottom. 

 

I am a Denim & Co. lover since I started buying a few things in the line two years ago. Now I wish I had tried QVC clothes years ago!

 

The nice thing about Denim & Co. is that when I order my regular size I have never had to return anything. Also, all of their colors match or go with the whole collection. Wearing Denim & Co. makes me happy.

It seems to me that there is too much fabric across the front. When the models turn to the side I see material sticking out in front. I am not a fan of smile hemlines either. I prefer elbow sleeves to be more fitted than loose. Too many things not right for me so I am not buying.

@Ainhisg

I am about your height and weight. I wear 36B bra. I always order XS in D & Co. tops which usually are 37 - 39 inches depending on garment. I prefer a close fit but not skin tight. I have never had shrinking with the 95/5. If something is 100% cotton then I tend to go with a S or M - just depends on garment measurements. I usually buy a S or M in tops in brick and mortar stores. Hope this helps.
