A Village Voice Book of the Year "A marvelous collection.... Her stories are tough, lean, funny, and metaphysical.... Birds of America has about it a wild beauty that simply makes one feel more connected to life." --The Boston Globe
"At once sad, funny, lyrical and prickly, Birds of America attests to the deepening emotional chiaroscuro of her wise and beguiling work." --The New York Times "Stunning.... There's really no one like Moore; in a perfect marriage of art form and mind, she has made the short story her own." --Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
"Birds of America stands as a major work of American short fiction.... Absolutely mastered." --Elle

Linen-Cotton Casual Shirt
I live in the subtropics; breathable fabrics are important in your wardrobe. I realize synthetics have benefits, but for me natural fabrics are my preference. Linen and Cotton blend; yes please. I was looking for smart casual, something more than a t-shirt or golf-shirt but less than button-down. Something that would pair well with a nice pair of shorts and look good. And that it does.
Sizing is your question. I ordered a large because I often have difficulty fitting at the shoulder; the size chart indicates a medium would probably be better but I am OK with a little baggy casual too. In a brick-and-mortar store, I would normally try both sizes on and select the best fit. The arms and shoulder fit fine, the torso is a bit large. If I wear it to the beach unbuttoned, it looks great.

Lightweight but comfortable
I like that this shirt is lightweight and airy - great for warm and humid Florida weather. However, the sizing is off a bit. I received a large, but it fits more like a medium. It’s tight around the shoulders and chest. Still, it’s a nice shirt, but you may want to order a size up.

Real cotton/linen. Fit as expected.
This shirt is nicely made. It doesn't look cheap or tacky. It's very classy looking and could be easily dressed up or down. It's really cotton/linen as advertised. It does not have any stretch to it. It fit as sized. I washed on warm and hang dried with no shrinkage or issues. Color is true to ad pics.

Adorable, Complete Set—Great for Special Occasions
Color: Beige, Size: 12, Color: Beige, Size: 12
This suit set is such a great find! It comes with everything you need—jacket, pants, shirt, tie, and bow tie—which makes getting a dressed-up look so easy. It's excellent quality for a suit in this price range.
The linen fabric gives it a nice, lightweight feel and a polished look that works well for both formal and semi-casual events. My son looked adorable in it, and it was perfect for the spring wedding we attended.
What I love:
Complete 5-piece set—no need to buy extras
Lightweight and comfortable material
Classic, stylish look with nice details (lapel, pockets, etc.)
Adjustable waistband is super helpful for fit
Versatile for weddings, holidays, and other events
Fit was true to size based on the chart, but I agree with the recommendation—if your child is between sizes or growing quickly, sizing up is a good idea. I sized up with the hopes that he can wear it again for another event because it looks fantastic!
Overall, a really cute and practical suit set that looks great without being uncomfortable. Perfect for any special event
