The Pussy Bow Blouse

No, I didn't just use a profanity in my post title.  I promise.  I'm talking about the chic girly blouse that has seen a resurgence in the last two seasons.  And if you don't trust me, you are more than welcome to look it up.  It's called the Pussy Bow Blouse!  And it's ever so tres chic!







{Olivia Palermo at the Mango fashion show}


As with any outfit, wearing a pussy bow blouse properly means paying attention to balance.  If you want to wear it loose, be sure to pair it with skinny jeans or a tight skirt to give yourself some shape.  If you plan on wearing it tucked in at the waist, pair it with wide-leg trousers or an A-line skirt to create an hourglass shape.  Here are my favorite neutral-toned bow blouses:



Which one is your favorite?

  22. I love the mulberry one. In any other context the p word makes me cringe. Although, my husband's 92-year-old grandma says pussy cat and it comes off with such elegance. She cracks me up.
