Pretty Blossom Tee (TopShop, $72)
Technically, this shirt is made for tall people, but it was so adorable, I had to share. It would be easy enough to alter it to fit someone of regular height, or you could just wear it as a tunic. They also sell a petite version for those of you with smaller frames.

There are two kinds of people in this world: People who eat cake on their birthdays and people who don’t. And some of the weirdos in the latter category (I said what I said) eat pie as an alternative. So if you’re a “birthday pie” eater with a late summer celebration coming up, may I […]
After Sloane was born, I developed a seething hatred for underwire bras. The trouble was that I had also developed a larger, slightly droopier bust. It was a cruel irony.
Our tween and teen nieces spent the first half of 2023 reviving our high school fashions. From peasant tops to low rises, I felt like I was back bopping to N’SYNC in my mint-green sedan for a minute. Now, our 20-something direct reports are bringing back the 2010s in a big way, and I am […]

For the past few years, the wardrobes of many influencers have tilted toward the beige and boring. I’m all for a good basic, but staple pieces can only take you so far. Sometimes, you need to wear something that has a little something extra, and this sale-priced tee certainly does.
wait–how is this different from floral jeans?
Lucille: It's a printed blouse. No different from a dotted blouse or a striped blouse. I wouldn't recommend you put either of those on a pair of skinny jeans either.
The print doesn't have the uniform look of cheap wallpaper or 1970s couch fabric. It's more subtle, less overwhelming.
A person cannot live by solids alone. If you lump all floral prints together in one big basket, then you are doing yourself a disservice. It's like saying, “Abe Lincoln and Sarah Palin are both Republicans. Abe Lincoln is the same as Sarah Palin.”
I love this top! But Belle, you don't think it can be paired with skinny jeans?
Hmmm. Seems to me that this very much resembles the 'garish retina-searing floral-print' of the very jeans you just posted. I actually like the look of both: the floral jeans and this top. not together of course. But with that in mind, i think relegating said garish prints to just our top halves is an equal disservice.
This top is really effing cute and smile-inducing.
