Fall Shopping: Channel the Ladylike Trend With a Bow Tie Blouse

Hannah Weil — Thu, 25 Aug 2011 11:45:04 PDT

The bow tie blouses coming down the Fall '11 runways at Mulberry, Dolce & Gabbana, Tory Burch, and more speak emphatically to a very feminine style sense. Not to be confused with a man's tie, these tie neck blouses are all about retro-inspired, ladylike appeal with high, Victorian-like collars, or sometimes deeper, more modern necklines. They appeal to the season's call to elegance, like high-waists, structured handbags, and slim skirts and trousers - and they wear just as well with them, too. Bow tied they feel prim and poised; undone they're just a little sexier. Either way they're like having a key accessory already built in to your look. Click through to shop our editor's picks and channel one of Fall's biggest trends.

Trend Alert: Romantic Ivory Blouses

FabSugar — Wed, 29 Sep 2010 08:00:05 PDT

Femininity emerged on the runways for Spring '11, but it's already here for Fall in the form of fabulously romantic ivory blouses. Soft ruffles, creamy palettes, and high collars make this blouse a standout with basics or even with prints. If you doubt the versatility, just refer to these Fab favorites - we love the way Taylor Swift, Isabel Lucas, and Roxy Olin recently sported the style, each with a little of her own twist. A touch of feminine whimsy to any outfit, a pretty contrast to structured blazers or tailored separates - just a way to wear a little Fab romance.

Trend Alert: Bohemian Blouses

FabSugar — Thu, 18 Feb 2010 15:04:25 PST

When I'm feeling a little flower child, I look to Nicole Richie for inspiration. After all, she's the queen of chic hippie looks. Case in point, this flowy bohemian blouse from her new Winter Kate collection. The small floral print, exaggerated bell sleeves, and wispy chiffon are all reminiscent of the sweet '70s. I like how she perfected the throwback look with her favorite pair of cutoff shorts and floppy hat. Too groovy for your liking? Try it with skinny jeans or tucked in for a more polished appeal.

Do You Gravitate Towards Simple or Frilly Tops?

The Look For Less: Diane von Furstenberg Philippine Blouse

FabSugar — Mon, 29 Sep 2008 02:00:08 PDT

This Diane von Furstenberg Philippine Blouse ($285) encompasses two Fab trends: a nude color palette and plenty of pleats. I would toughen this romantic blouse with a pair of skinny black pants and my favorite Fall jacket. Sounds Fab, huh? The only thing stopping me from putting it all together is the price.

To see the look for less,

Whew! This Victoria's Secret Silk Chiffon Pleated Blouse ($68) is much lighter on the pocketbook. It has the same billowy sleeves as the aforementioned version and I like the slightly longer cut. Done and done.

Trend Alert: Fluid Silk Tops

FabSugar — Thu, 25 Sep 2008 05:00:22 PDT

There's something magical about mixing together the hard and soft. Take for instance fluid silk tops. Alone, these romantic blouses can come off overly girly, but the trick is to style them with sleek pants and hard-edge adornments.

Gossip Girl Leighton Meester is a perfect reflection of sugar and spice. Her asymmetrical top is serene; everything else is sexy. Get the picture?

Back to Cool: Teen Queen, Molly Ringwald

FabSugar — Tue, 19 Aug 2008 15:00:22 PDT

Molly Ringwald not only had dancing skills, the girl was the teen queen of the '80s. While crushing over Jake Ryan (so hot) in Sixteen Candles, being the not-so-popular girl in Pretty In Pink, or playing prom queen in The Breakfast Club, Molly ruled in her leather bombers, scrunched boots, frilly tops, and blazers. It's time to take your back to cool style, well, back in time!

Cheap & Chic: Romantic Blouses

FabSugar — Fri, 25 Jul 2008 14:00:22 PDT

Amidst all the drama, Sienna Miller is still one fashionable babe. If you're going to get your photo taken by the paparazzi, you might as well look cute, right?

I'm loving the semisheer romantic blouse she's jetsetting in. It's a great alternative to wearing a basic tee with your jeans and doesn't appear stuffy. When choosing a romantic blouse, look for one with a casual fit and fun detailing such as stripes, ruffles, or frills. Kudos to Sienna for accessorizing her feminine look with a funky Gucci belt.
