Weekend Blouse

Target Merona blouse, Forever 21 denim shorts, key cocktail ring, and mesh clutch, J Crew belt, Ray-Ban sunglasses, Michael Kors wedges (last seen here)

The Forever 21 double finger key cocktail ring I mentioned here.

As I mentioned here, I've recently started converting my work blouses into weekend attire. On Sunday I paired this Target Merona blouse (that I bought five years ago) with my casual cutoff denim shorts from Forever 21 (thanks for the style tips on the cutoffs, Nikki and Carrie). I threw on my Michael Kors gold wedges, my double finger key cocktail ring, and a gold mesh clutch and felt successful in reviving a very old item that I had never worn outside the fluorescent lighting of the office. I've decided that sunlight brightens the mood of this top.

Although the word "blouse" tends to evoke images of our grandma's wardrobe, I've always had many blouses hanging in my closet. I've always worn them regularly to work. But only recently have I transitioned them from my work wardrobe to my weekend wear. Suddenly, blouses are everywhere, paired with shorts, skirts, skinny jeans, you name it! I feel like I just hit the wardrobe jackpot and have countless new options by converting my work clothes into stylish weekend outfits! Are you embracing the Blouse?
