This is by far one of my girliest shirts. I love the dramatic puff sleeves and stand up collar. The sheer part is made of a stiff organza material that doesn’t get floppy, even after washing. It’s quite a statement, which is why I like to keep everything else simple with black straight leg jeans, ballet flats, and a thin gold bangle. Anything more and I think I really would start to look like a vampire princess. However, I’m open to suggestions. I’ve had some people comment that they think the top is too dressy for jeans. What do you all think? Is it really too dressy? What other ways could I wear this?

The blouse is Anne Fontaine, the jeans are Express, the bangle was a gift from my in-laws, and the shoes are Me Too.
