The LL Bean Portland Popover shirt is praised for its flattering and comfortable fit, soft and lightweight fabric, and stylish design.

Comfortable but not a flattering fit
Weight: 160-170 lbs
Height: 5'4"
Size Purchased: Large
Fit: True to size
Used for: Casual or Every Day
Unfortunately this will go back. It’s super comfortable but the cropped length cuts those with older bodies in just the wrong place.

Classic Shirt

Height: 5'0"
Size Purchased: Large
Fit: True to size

I ordered the Large because it was closest to my size left in-stock. I decided to keep it because it is still cute oversized. A medium would have been perfect.

I like the color, the boxy fit, and the lightweight fabric. You can layer a t-shirt underneath. This shirt looks good with high-waisted, slim-leg jeans.
