We live in South Florida so it is summer for most of the year except for a few months when some people find it actually cold. We grew up near Chicago, so here we can wear t-shirts all year round, while others might wear one month a year. When it's hot (and it usually is), we need comfortable clothing that looks good and doesn't make us sweat. When it comes to tops, that usually means sheer tops that are poorly tailored. However, they are perfect and I will look for them in other designs for my daughters. They're thin and breathable, but not thin enough to be cheap. They are well done. you look cute Daughters didn't complain about being uncomfortable. They survived the wash well. Definitely a great addition to your warm weather wardrobe.
