Simplicity 2804 in Silk Jersey

First time I made this pattern was in December 2008, here is the original top and review.  It is one of those tops, I always receive compliments.  Funny thing, as I didn't think of it as that great or something special but I sure do wear it alot.

With that in mind, I used some silk jersey purchased at Needle Nook in July to make a second top.  I made it with a round neck this time and made a self-fabric band for the sleeves.

Here is it:

The fabric is gorgeous and it is one of the those tops that looks better on me than the dressform.  I will wear it soon but no picture today, yard work and painting most the day pluse a 3 mile walk.  So I will not be in front of a camera at all!
