This turquoise floral blouse works for both winter and spring.
Now is the time of year when I start itching to wear anything but a sweater. I’m over winter, over being totally bundled up, and ready to start experimenting with spring-y type prints and colors. This is a tall order in KC during February when the cold turns bitter and we’ll enjoy a week or two straight of single-digit temps. But wind chill factor be damned, I’m braving the elements in this turquoise floral blouse.
What I dig about this top is how the color palette straddles seasons; this blouse could be January (with a blazer or a jacket) or it could be May (with a pair of crisp white trousers).
It’s pretty well known that I’m into wide-leg denim these days, and this pair doesn’t disappoint with its high waist and cropped hem. I like the classic wash, too. These heels look way more expensive than they are. They’re quite Gucci-esque for a fraction of the price. I’m into that big gold buckle and the height is perfect for adding some sophistication to a look without sacrificing comfort.
The jewelry here plays on all the turquoise happening in the blouse. A blue tourmaline ring and an ombré blue topaz ring add some little punches of color, while a (very! cheap!) pair of Amazon earrings brings in a little tortoiseshell.
For colder (read: normal) winter days, I’ll layer on a black boyfriend blazer over the top or even a neutral sweater vest. Both add a layer of warmth and keep things stylish.
