Luxe

Finally busted out my luxe crepe blouse. I love, love, LOVE this blouse and own it in both colors. It runs ever so slightly large, so if you're in between sizes, you could size down. If it ever goes on sale... this is one of the few items that has been around for 6+ months with no markdown! Rare these days. Here is my outfit... nothing special, but comfortable and pulled together enough for work:
Minnies in wild blackberry (4 tall), Lulu flats, and luxe silk crepe blouse (6), old necklace

OOTD 4/3/12

    I love it and the way you styled it is perfect, don't need anything more. I wanted this blouse in this color but could not stomach the price. If I ever see it popback with sale price I will snatch it but don't have too much hope.

      Thanks ajc! It is pricey... but definitely worth it on sale. It doesn't seem to have been super popular so there may be hope!

    Very cute! You make me want to try the minnies (for about the fifth time) again! :o)

      Thanks! I tried them many times before buying them, too. HATED them at first! And looking at that picture, they do not emphasize my height/long legs which means I probably should not wear them, but oh well; they are comfy as heck!

    Lovely blouse! My wool minnies got a lot of wear this winter. I love them!

    Ah! Those shoes! Precious.

    I tried on the Minnies once again the last time I went to Asheville and ONCE AGAIN I scolded myself for trying them. They seriously look heinous on me. When I see bloggers like you rockin' them, I get so sad!

      Hahaha... I don't think for one second that I am the best candidate for Minnie rockage, but I just wear them anyway. I hated them the first few times I tried them, too... and some of the versions of the wool minnies were truly AWFUL on me.

      If J.Crew brought back the lulus (but with a leather lining this time), I would buy every color!

    I love how you keep the outfit simple and elegant. I have the same silk shirt in the pink and need to bust it out to wear too. :)

    The blouse is gorgeous! And I love that kind of powdery pink/nude color - so many other colors it could go with.
