Ruffles And A Tiny Bow

    This weeks Trend Spin Link Up at Walking In Memphis In High Heels is bows. Believe it or not, I really don’t own anything with a bow or bows on it, so I dug through my closet and came up with this top. It ties in the front, and that’s a bow, right?!
     My favorite way to wear it is actually under a blazer when it’s cooler outside.  Since I’m petite, but curvy with a short waist, the ruffles add width that I don’t really love.  A blazer tapers it in and the lacy ruffles sticking out add a pretty touch. It is a nice top for summer though.  It works equally well with a maxi skirt or denim shorts.  Since there is a lot of volume up top, I paired it with one of my less voluminous maxis so there wasn’t so much going on.
     I’m also linking up with the weekly Real Girl Style Link UpStyle Elixir: Style Sessions, and My Thrifty Chic Anything & Everything Blog Hop.
Style Tip:  If you’re wearing something with a lot of volume on top, wear it with something more streamlined on the bottom and vice versa.

                   

              

Top: Old (don’t even remember where it came from!);  Skirt: Target (no longer available);  Sandals: Payless (no longer available)

Such a cute top! I like how it creates a peplum shape layered with the maxi dress as it pinches in at the waist. Really nice 🙂
