Embroidered Placket Blouse ($79 + 40%-off)

I love placket blouses for work.  They’re versatile enough to wear to the office or with weekend attire.  They mix the professionalism of a button-up with the femininity of a blouse.  And this one has a really unique detail on the placket to give it a little something extra.

These Everlane blouses are perfect for the office and come in lovely colors.  This Asos blouse has a pleated front that’s very interesting.  If you like prints, this animal print blouse from Billabong is chic and this Jones New York top has a very Tory Burch look to it.

Prefer something sleeveless or with short sleeves?  This Mossimo blouse has a stylish mix of neutral colors, and this French Connection blouse has a sheer yoke.

Plus-size?  This Anne Klein blouse has a great casual look to it, it would be nice with white denim.  Petite?  In addition to the Ann Taylor blouse above, this J.Crew popover would be nice for the weekends.

    I love silk/placket blouses and am wearing one today with jeans for casual Friday! This one may be arriving at my doorstep shortly–it’s a style I can’t get enough of right now because as you mentioned, they are SO versatile.

You Have, You Need: Camel Sweater Edition

In the name of fiscal responsibility, I’m taking a shopping respite through the end of the year.  When you write a fashion blog, not shopping is like being a person on a diet who moves into a McDonald’s.  But I’m determined to flex some self-discipline now that my holiday shopping is done.

Since my daughter was born, Amazon has claimed so much of my money that I had to buy stock just to get some of it back.  Between the formula, onesies, fruit pouches, diapers, wipes, and ever evolving list of baby development gear, I could not survive without Prime.   My husband no longer notices the […]
