Haley Blouse by Elie Tahari
A white lacy blouse can easily turn into an overly frilly mess that one's grandmother might wear. That's why we're so happy we've found the Haley Blouse by Elie Tahari as it is far from this. It is modern in its delicacy and femininity. There are multiple buttons down the front, a V-neck, scalloped lace appliqué at the placket, ruching, contrast trim, and pleated banding at the waist, a hidden side zipper, and camisole lining.

Border Print Butterfly Sleeve Top by Mara Hoffman
If you're an energenic type of person, the Border Print Butterfly Sleeve Top by Mara Hoffman might be for you. It's rather boring when the model is standing still, but whenever she's posing, this blouse has a ton of movement. It's definitely not for wall flowers! This top has a keyhole at the neck with a hook-and-eye closure, a tie at the back, wide sleeves, and is 100% silk. The print reminds us of a Rorschach test a bit too.
September 2, 2008
Lutece Print Chiffon Blouse by Diane von Furstenberg
Geometric patterns aren't always our thing (remind us too much of the 80s, and we can't get over that), but the Lutece Print Chiffon Blouse by Diane von Furstenberg has taken this idea into the 21st century. This blouse has a V-neck, tie at the neck, seam detail throughout the body, and a lining. The top is also 100% silk.

Color Stripe V Neck Sweater by L.A.M.B.
The color of the Color Stripe V Neck Sweater by L.A.M.B. is called black multi, but we're seeing mostly green. We aren't sure if it's just our computer or if black actually plays a small part in this top, but we love it either way. The contrasting purple color at the waist makes it interesting. There's also ribbed banding at the V-neck, hem, and cuffs and 3/4 length sleeves. It's made of 100% wool.
Twist Front Camisole by Robert Rodriguez
The Twist Front Camisole by Robert Rodriguez is so feminine and dainty that it's bordering on lingerie, so it should definitely be paired with bottoms that give it a little more edge or a jacket. This cami has contrast lace at the V-neck, banding at the back and waist, ruching at the waist, one inch straps, and a hidden size zipper. It is 100% silk and comes in two colors: jet and emerald.
