Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I purchased this after reading reviews and knowing it ran small, ordered up one size. What I should have done was order up TWO sizes. I normally wear a women's medium. I'm 5'5, 150lbs. I'm pretty average as far as a 40 something female goes. There are a few things I love about this shirt: I love the feel of the fabric. I love the length of the body and sleeves. I love the color (I ordered coffee). Here's what I don't love: The sizing! I'm all for fitted, but love handles do not need to be displayed. I thought ordering one size would eliminate the "snug" feeling. Nope. I should have ordered a XL. I don't even own an XL, so maybe this is more sized to be a junior size rather than women's, since the only other shirt I have that is XL is a junior size? I ordered this to have it printed with a design, so I shipped it directly to a location to have that done. I wish it was larger, so now instead of wearing my custom shirt, I'll need a cardigan or something to "hide" my love handles as I show my pride for my new shirt. I would say this was TOO small, but it's a matter of how snug you wear your clothes I think. It's not too small. It's not indecent, or uncomfortable. It's just not what I would choose to wear if I had a chance to revise the size that would fit me best. I also ordered one for a friend. I HOPE it fits her better than mine fit me.
