A Superior White Blouse for Work

It's difficult to find a work-appropriate white blouse that isn't sheer. This Murphy long sleeve blouse, which also comes as a sleeveless tank and a short sleeve shirt, is from Aritzia. What makes it special is that its body (not the sleeves) is double-layered fabric. They make this style in different colors and prints each season and it's really a great basic piece. Stains don't wash out well, however, so best to wait for a sale.

One Dress Two Ways

Here is a great secondhand find, a black denim dress! I styled it two ways. First up, with heels! I think this would be more of a night-time look.

Next, for a day look, tights and flats worked perfect while still being edgy-cool. Especially with the moto bag.

Another Great T-shirt Find

Sometimes when you find a really special t-shirt, you have to share it with the world! In my book, a great tee is one that is opaque, soft, not too long, and drapes beautifully. This James Perse tee is one of those.

I picked this shirt up in Chicago at Bloomingdales recently. They had a black but this one is "carbon", kind of a washed black. It is called the Vintage Little Boy Tee in lightweight jersey. Wow, it's fantastic! I highly recommend it for quality and softness, in case you are looking for a perfect shirt.
