Pre-YLF, I tended to wear t-shirts and cardigans with pants. In the last year or two, I have been adding some blouses to my wardrobe. Here are a couple, in work outfits.
1-3: worn to work Saturday: navy (with very fine narrow pinstripe) slouchy pants (made by me); watercolor-like print blouse with high-low hem, extended open vent at back, and funnel neck, made from a cotton-silk-metal voile (made by me); denim ballet flats (AGL); olive coat (Laundry by Shelly Segal); navy bag with tan trim (Dooney & Bourke); brass and silver concentric circle earrings (Marjorie Baer); brass and silver bead bracelet (Lucky).
The metal in the blouse fabric makes it crinkle and stay that way; I can press it, but it doesn't stay flat. Very unusual and fun fabric.
4-8: worn to work Friday: charcoal skinny ankle pants (Classiques Entier); olive cotton/polyester shirt with little stand collar, hidden placket, angled side seams with slits, high-low hem (made by me); black loafers (Munro Kimi); olive coat (Laundry by Shelly Segal); black satchel (Elliott Luca); darkened silver disk earrings (gift from a dear friend); piano wire necklace and earrings (from a local boutique).
Thanks for looking! I'd love to hear your thoughts and suggestions.
