Sleeves

Look, I know you might think this boring, but I had to do it. I need to be honest with you, this Blog is about writing of all things fashion to anybody who might listen, but it’s as much about having my personal diary about what I like. So, there you are, this post is definitely part of the latter…

SLEEVES. They can be so chic.

I can’t help it, I just look at these picture in awe…. I’d like a shirt with each one of these sleeve please!

Keep it chic’s feminine blouses

I am apparently not the only one thinking about white blouses… Today I found the usual e-mail alerting me Preston Davis of Keep it Chic had published a post, which is about white blouses! Only hers is about more feminine styles, and rather more expensive too. I love the idea of an embroidered blouse though. I think I will have a look to see if I can find something more suitable for my pockets…

Meanwhile, here’s the link to her post:

The latest white shirts

I do go on about white shirts a lot, I know. But, let’s be honest, we never seem to have enough of them; the time we see a new style, or we realise we are missing a classic one … and they do go with just about everything (like jeans). Of course mid-season, I find, is the perfect time for shirts.

It’s nearly autumn, one can start adding things…a scarf, a string of pearls, a waistcoat, a jacket, etc. I do think a look is better with more than two things, or colours, for that matter.

Anyhow, here are the latest designs I found and like:

They are all nice to wear on their own, because they are so beautiful, but some will look nice with yesterday’s waistcoats too. Others will look fabulous with a long pearl necklace. Jeans are always a great match, but I especially like them with skirts lately.

My favourites are the Atterley, Babaton e the Zara frilly one!
