J.Crew Bettina Cami

I think of the Bettina Cami from J.Crew as an easier-to-wear version of their silk ruffle camis.

I chose the Dried Rose color, even though I wanted to buy these in every color. I figured I would buy one just to test the waters first, then if I loved it, I’d decide which colors to buy next!

I’m wearing: J.Crew Equestrian Leather Belt, J.Crew Brushstroke Mini Skirt, Nine West Getby Wedges, J.Crew Glass Pools Bracelet

I got my usual size in J.Crew shirts – size 6 – and it fits relatively loosely. Perfect for tucking into skirts and looking put together without trying too hard. However, what’s up with the collar? It doesn’t really open up to showcase the ruffles; it’s more like the two flaps kind of just close in on your chest. I kept trying to push down the two sides but they kept closing back up. Still cute regardless, but this could bother people who expect it to come looking like the stock photo online.

Here’s another picture of the cami untucked; it hits below hip.

Best part of this cami? It looks dressy and will make you look put together without much effort, but has none of the high maintenance issues that come with all the other silk ruffle camis that provide the same type of look. It’s machine washable!!! Hooray! I’m eyeing Spicy Russet and Tuscan Olive next.

Get it here from J.Crew for $79.50.
