Fitting Room Friday: What Goes With This? Tie Neck Blouse

Farmer Jo queried: 
"I am a middle figure, and nursing (so bigger on top). I have only worn it with skinny jeans, but need to make it work appropriate. Belting doesn't really work with my post partum soft center. I am actually not even sure if it is the right top for me, I just love the print! , I am an elementary teacher if that helps with styling, nothing too tight or short. :)And washable."

 Cardigan Empire Answered:
Farmer Jo, the Loosened Shelby Blouse is ideal for a soft delicious center.  And speaking as a fellow lactator with the same blouse in two colors, it's also nursing friendly.  Educating it for work is actually quite elementary.  First add a layer.  A loosely structured cropped pullover will multiply polish without dividing middle squishies. Second, subtract your skinny jeans for skinny chinos or cords.

Loosened Shelby Blouse + Contoured Crewneck + Pilcro Stet Slim Straight + Lace Trapeze Earrings

For further diversity, structure your whole torso with a neat little blazer, keep the look approachable with clean flat fronted bermudas.


Loosened Shelby Blouse + So Saturated Blazer + Coin Pocket Bermudas + Muted Shades Loafers


If you're feeling fancy, you can introduce this little number to a pencil skirt.  Lower figures and hourglass types may tuck in, but those who want less definition around the waistline may leave the finished hem undone.

    I love the last outfit!! It's so 1920's-ish with the hat. It's suck a great layered look and has a lot of interest.
