Three Ways: Lace Yolk Blouse

Jul 5, 2011

 

Polyvore Set Found Here.

Enjoy a summer in the park with this ikat skirt and bright fuschia, tasseled sandals.  Add simple earrings and small chain chain bag for a ladylike outfit for brunch, church or casual evenings out.  You could add a belt if you want, but the pattern of the skirt is so interesting, I thought I would just let it alone.

Truth be told, I created this entire outfit just so I could finally use that belt.  Talk about a statement piece.  Mix in basic pieces in different shades of grey (the same shade is too matchy-matchy) with the blouse for a pretty work look.  As for accessories, I chose an earring that coordinates with the fuschia in the belt and simple, hammered gold ring.

It’s a bit too hot for this outfit right now, but it will be perfect for early Autumn.  While I don’t usually wear hoops, I thought they were appropriate for a boho-chic feel with the embellished sandal and the large cuff.  Also, this crossbody satchel is a good choice for under-$125.

    Belle, I am usually a skeptic of sheer tops (have a hard time finding the right sort of camisole or bra to go underneath), but you've convinced me to get the Topshop blouse and the Geren Ford blouse from a couple weeks ago. They really are work/casual versatile and can be dressed up or down. Nice finds!

Beauty Review: Bondi Boost

As I age, I notice many changes in my body. Most are fine. Some are frustrating. Like many women, I lost a lot of hair in my postpartum phase. Being anemic for more than a year after, it didn’t grow back in to its former glory. So I’ve tried any number of shampoos, pills and […]

The Find: Shirts That Don’t Gape

I remember when Rochelle Behrens launched The Shirt — a button-down blouse with anti-gape technology (a patented internal button that keeps the look smooth). The idea seemed brilliant, but at the time, my bust didn’t require an extra button. One baby later, I understand the need for some extra security.
