I wish I could take credit, but they had this combo displayed at my B&M. I would never have thought of it. However, I am finding the sepia colored tank is quite versatile.
I haven't really noticed a difference between this year's version of the tank and last year. Except, a little thinner, maybe? I bought my same size (M) as I did last year and they fit fine. However, I do tend to wear my J. Crew tanks layered with something, even another tank, over them. They have always been a little too thin to wear just on their own for me :)
How do the tanks run? Is the neckline very low? I loved the old J.Crew tanks and was so sad when they replaced them and then I found them at my outlet and bought like 10. They get worn out though and I wanted to try these.
