Happy Friday! It's already the middle of January, where does the time go? Today's post is all about Frank & Eileen's Barry, a tailored button-up shirt. I purchased both of these a while back when they went on sale and I got them for 40% off. Just be aware that their sale items are final sale. However, since this isn't my first Barry, I already knew what size to get.
For reference I'm 4 feet 11 inches tall. I typically wear size XS in F&E. I also wear size 4/6 or XS/S in Lululemon and PXS in Athleta.
The Barry runs small. I'm normally size XS in Frank & Eileen, but for the Barry I size up. I love their legendary denim fabric. It's extra soft and 100% cotton that tends to get softer with every wash. I already have one in a vintage faded blue, which I love but was intrigued when I saw it in this gray/brown color. The denim version has a distressed look to it with wrinkle details. It's not for everyone, but I like it.
I typically wear these unbuttoned in the summer and I'll throw it on as a layer over a tee or tank. The Barry is the most petite friendly top Frank & Eileen offers. If I were to purchase this in my normal size, it would be extremely fitted to the point where it would be too tight around my hips.
I also really love their Italian Flannel. It's lightweight, but also super soft. For the days I go to the office, I wear them buttoned up and layer blazer or vest over it.
It's also freezing in Atlanta right now! I've been wearing this cozy vest from Varley a lot. It's roomy enough to layer and soooo soft. That's it for me! Stay warm and have a great weekend!
