favorite white blouse

Wanna know the first thing I think when I see these pictures? I should wear white more often! I mean black is almost always my go-to color. But then I see these pics & how great & bold the color can be & I think white should be my new black. Seriously. I forget how refreshing the brightness of it can be. Especially in the form of this blouse! I got it on sale for $11 (score!) & want to wear it everyday. It went great with my faux acid washed corduroy jeans & brown ankle boots.

My favorite part about it has to be the boho vibe sleeves & shredded layer texture on the shoulders though. When shopping for a staple like a white blouse to put in your closet, look for something that gives it character. Something that says it belongs to you for a reason. Whether it be because of the buttons down the front, the bow tie hanging in the middle, or the high neck collar. Don’t let it be dull & boring, but give it life so that it makes your outfit & you come alive. Long live the white blouse & all it’s clean color glory!
