She Wears Her Tears On Her Blouse

In a shout-out to gypsy style, peasant blouses have been all over the runways and red carpets this spring.  Printed blouses of all varieties are popular, as long as they are characteristically voluminous.  Personally, the tops seem to look best when paired with simple skinny jeans or tucked into a high-waisted skirt.  Toss on some chains and bangles, no statement necklaces needed here. For spring these can be paired with boots or sandals depending on the fickle weather. This is a great way to feminize a bohemian outfit without the season’s hard to pull off ruffles.
