tiny flaw? i see nothing

When browsing ThredUP you may come across an item with an asterisk beside it, noting that the item has a small flaw, the details of which are specified on the page.

This thick, 100% silk Tommy Bahama top was under $20 because of a few tiny pulls in the fabric, and unless you are looking, you would never notice them. Don't let the thought of a tiny flaw deter you from a purchase, ThredUP has a 12 Point Quality Checklist, and style experts that triple check each item. If it's listed, you will be pleased with the quality.

This week I am participating in the ThredUP $150 style challenge. See my other looks here!

  4. I can't see the flaw at all - and it's so colorful and pretty. Even I can appreciate a good colorful top, even if I don't wear them myself.

  6. I see no tears or loose threads, so yay for an awesome deal on an awesome top! I love collared tops on you, Lyddie. They frame your face in such a nice way.

    Also, digging your greenish heels that match your greenish necklace. Lovely lovely!

  7. That top is a fab find!
    I bought a wedding gown with a small wine stain (it came out) so I say most flaws are fine!

  13. This is one of the best things I've seen from Tommy Bahama--maybe it's how you're wearing it. And as predicted, I see no flaws!

  16. I think that years of thrifting with my mom taught me to not be afraid of a stain or a tear. She was always the best at fixing those kinds of things.

    I love the top with that skirt! I feel transported to an island.
