Style Diary: Bow Blouse

The girly girl in me is loving this season’s bow trend.  It’s everywhere from Gucci to Tory Burch to Diane Von Furstenburg, to Marc by Marc Jacobs to Ralph Lauren.  So when I saw this white BCBG bow blouse at the retail store where I work during my double employee discount period, I just knew I had to have it.

Ok so I already have another white bow blouse sitting in my closet from Saks.  But this one is half-sleeved..er so I reasoned. The best thing about the blouse is that the bow is detachable so it’s like you’re getting two shirts for the price of one!

I wore it with my cardigan sweater from Forever 21, my pleated navy skirt from H&M and my Hello Kitty purse which I adore.  The navy heels are by Richard Tyler.

Here are some other inspirational pics that I found of other fashionistas wearing their favorite bow blouses.

This fashionista reminded me that you can convert any blouse into a bow blouse simply by adding a thin scarf.  How do you like that?

I love the vibrant colors color-blocked together.  This outfit reminded me a little of my bow blouse and shorts outfit shown here.

How sweet is this?  There’s something so sweet and unexpected about this pretty pink and camel color pairing.

This classic cream/black pairing caught my interest immediately.  It’s adorable, isn’t it?

If you’re a bow fan like I am, and can’t get enough,  you’ll love my earlier post featuring Flattery who is the queen of dressing in bows!  Her picture is shown below.

Pink Party: Tory Burch and Susan Lucci

I had the pleasure of meeting Tory Burch and Susan Lucci at a breast cancer charity event this past week.  Knowing I would meet Tory, I made sure to wear my Tory Burch dress.  I love it because of the retro style and classic navy color.  It seems I can style it in a hundred different ways since navy goes with everything.

As an ode to the pink ribbon, I wore my ribbon brooch and painted my nails pink for the event.

Susan Lucci was as sweet, poised and as beautiful as you would have expected.  She’s also strikingly thin and youthful looking!  Just look at her!  Truly amazing.   And Tory Burch, another guest speaker at the event could not have been more gracious, polite and lovely.

I’m happy to report that when Tory met me, she complimented me on how great the dress looked on me.  I couldn’t have been happier with the introduction 🙂
