This Not That: Free People Sweet Escape Top

Shop my post here.

You know a top is too good when you almost commit accidental fraud 💀I was this close to returning the dupe to Free People—until a weird gut feeling made me check the tag. Crisis (and embarrassment) averted.

I wore this beauty to Coldplay (hello, “Yellow”) and it was perfect for a humid summer night. My stick-on bra didn’t survive the sweat, but this top? Breezy, comfy, and somehow still cute even though I was basically soaked underneath.

I tied the front up tight so I could wear it with just a bra, but it also looks adorable layered over a tank—definitely keeping this one in rotation as we head into fall 🍂 It’s one of those pieces that makes you feel like you really tried on your outfit, even when you absolutely didn’t, which as a busy mom I appreciate.
