Spring tops at BR

It's tops like this that just make me SAD about the state of fashion. Seriously, I tried it on - it's a SACK with a ROPE that ties around it. Completely unflattering. The neckline and color are cute, though, which is why I tried it on. [$68 @ BR]

On the other hand, I just love this color. Fantastic with jeans or navy. Maybe this one will fit better. Need to check it out at the store (also to make sure the color doesn't wash me out). [$44 @ BR, also in black]

I've been so frightened by some of the fashions I've seen lately. Especially the leggings. Please, leggings, GO AWAY.
