As someone who hates having their upper arms uncovered I needed a new staple mesh top for under some of my other tops and dresses. I didn't realise this was cropped although it does say in the description and I missed it (what isn't these days ;c ). However, since I bought this to go under some tops and dresses the length doesn't matter so much. At first I wasn't sure I wanted something with a slightly loose sleeve, but after trying all the tight mesh tops I had - I realised I needed something that didn't accentuate this part of my arm. I think this top will fit in nicely as an everyday item in my wardrobe.
