i'm 5'5\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" and weigh 168 lbs. i bought a large. the fit is roomy, but not \\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\"slouchy,\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\\" which suits me fine. i have a busy life, and as much as i like the appearance of oversized clothing, i don't like it flopping around.
