Sorry I've been MIA for a while. It's not that I haven't been shopping and taking pictures of things, I've just been running around like a crazy person and not really feeling much like blogging. But, alas, Black Friday has brought me back to life! :)
Talbots Ruffle Plaid Blouse - $69.50
Untucked. I am wearing a size 2. Runs TTS.
Tucked into black pants and black patent belt.
With the side-zip sweatshirt over. More casual I guess ... not sure if this even works, but ...
With black J.Crew sweater over.
*I took this pic based on FFM's comment. I actually forgot I had this nice, thick boyfriend cardi from AT last year. Its long enough to wear with tights/leggings. I do like this outfit as a more casual way to wear this shirt! It takes like a freakin' hour to get the shirt all situated beneath the sweater, but in the end, looks cute.*
I really wanted this from the first time I saw it. I love that is a nice, thinner, stretch fabric. The ruffles are just enough to be cute, but not 'crazy' or in-the-way big. I ordered it during the 30% off tops promo and waited almost a month for it to be off back order.
Anyway, now I'm just not sure if I have a need for this shirt as it's pretty conservative and I'm not sure if I can dress it down enough to get a lot of wear out of it.
What do you think? I like it with the black pants, but can this shirt be pulled off with jeans? Give me your thoughts!
I think the blouse looks great on you, especially tucked in. I think you could definitely wear it with jeans (and knee boots or booties) to dress it down. I would also throw on a black blazer with the jeans as another option. Let us know what you decide! :)
ReplyDeleteThe best look of the 4 is the one tucked in into your jeans.
ReplyDeleteFFM: I tried it with a black cardi over it and it totally worked (don't have a great black blazer right now! :( I'm posting a pic here soon!
ReplyDeleteRose: Thanks!
