A super quick post before I head to work. The skirt is from a blouse that I tied together and turned into a skirt. Happy hump day! Hope you all are having a wonderful day!

My favorite thing about this blouse is the detailing. The front and sleeves are filled with pin tucks and ruffle edges, which adds a very girly/feminine touch. I'm really into silky and sheer blouses this summer. It keeps me cool and I love the feel of the fabrics. Most people don't think about wearing long sleeves during the summer and just resort to short sleeves and tank tops. With the right fabrication, these long sleeve blouses will actually keep you cooler than you think. If you think about it, it acts as a shield and shade you from the sun. Imagine driving with your air conditioning on but your arms are still extremely hot because the heat from the sun is hitting you. So that's just a thought to consider!
I was so fortunate to find this beautiful blouse during a yard sale that Miri Han and friends held at their home. In fact, I left with a box full of goodies! I was trying to go for a sort of retro look here. It is without a doubt that this blouse was the focal piece in this outfit.
