Amira

Named after my eldest daughter, Amira is an elegant top that would look well under a blazer with a skirt or by itself over jeans. This sleeveless shell has a modified, draped boat neck with lace and texture to form a modest and feminine line which can take you from early spring through fall or early winter. With 11 sizes to choose from, you are almost guaranteed to find a fit that flatters.
