I purchased two of these in the Italian Red and Cream colors. Love them both! They are super comfy while being stylish and polished at the same time. I wear them to work and on the weekend regularly. I purchased a size small in the regular, not petite, despite being 5'3" and 117#. I tried both on in the store and the petite was too short in the back. I am an inverted triangle body type with broader shoulders and arms for my height/weight, so the small fits well. Someone else of my size would probably go with an XS I would think. I wanted to wear these with leggings, so liked the longer look of the regular fit as well. I don't find the length to be overwhelming. Fairly thin fabric, but still warm enough for CA and in my heated office. I received 3 compliments in the first hour of work! I also purchased the Asymmetrical Fleece Wrap Cardigan by Bobeau and the fit is very similar. The material is much thicker/warmer, but I actually prefer how this one drapes on my body with the thinner material.
