I love it but not for this amount of money.

I love this top but not for the amount of money they want. I like the deep v neck, the gathered shoulders, the ruched bottom, and the long sleeves. I want it in black, preferably. Any dupes out there?

What is the amount of money you want?

What size are you? I actually have this very top, in black, and I put it in a box a few hours ago with a bunch of other Ebay-destined things. I'm about 90% sure it's a 1. Weird!

Zulily sometimes has sales on older Kiyonna clothes. You can select it as a favorite brand and theoretically get an email when there is a sale featuring it. I got the black and green Juliet top for $26.99, and it was originally $68. Downsides: you have to sign up for zulily, there's no returns, even if the style goes on sale it may not be your size or color, it takes a long time to get to you and I don't trust their email system to notify me, as I have a few brands marked as favorites and never get email about them.

I've noticed that SWAK Designs often all but rips off Kiyonna's styles, so start there. And I sometimes see Kiyonna on eBay, so it might be worth a look there to see if you can find that top for cheaper.

Do you know about Sonsi? They sell most of the good plus-sized brands out there, and browsing their site is usually the best way to scan the most options with the least amount of effort.
