Kelsey Top by C&C California
Here is a feminine and quite pretty blouse. The Kelsey Top by C&C California
has sheer lace inset at the bodice, five inch lace banding at the bottom hem, a scoop neck, six buttons at the bust, ruching at the bust and back, and short sleeves. The lace makes it quite girly, while the dark color gives it a nice edge so it doesn't come off as too sticky sweet.
