“Get your normal size. I normally wear a 12, I should have got a 12, if I wanted it to button comfortably. But I can wear this without buttoning it! I am on the way losing pounds. I weigh 177, get down to my goal weight, this will button just fine! Great material, I ordered X-Tall, just for fun, it’s a little to long in sleeves…But is any thing to long when everything has been to short your whole life?! LOVE IT!”
