Thanks for pointing that out.<br /> Lyn, yes Angie showed us this blouse on, I think, her client Karen. I tried to copy that outfit and need to look for that post again.<br /> Firecracker, I had not thought of that juxtaposition when I put the outfit together, but it is a bit of a surprise pairing.<br /> Cindy, yes NAS is exciting. I love to see what everyone picks.<br /> Thank you all for your comments. They are a great help to me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-blouse-with-gathers-from-an-early-nas#post-2065715 Tue, 01 Oct 2019 22:29:17 +0000 Anonymous 2065715@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Doesn't look dated at all to me either! The bow looks more subtle to me, since its printed, than it would on a solid color blouse. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-blouse-with-gathers-from-an-early-nas#post-2065515 Tue, 01 Oct 2019 11:49:25 +0000 lyn67 2065515@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I remember the blouse Angie featured it on one of her early clients, years ago-and I admired it so much then and now! Love the colors and the&nbsp; pattern, love this look, too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-blouse-with-gathers-from-an-early-nas#post-2065304 Mon, 30 Sep 2019 21:22:36 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 2065304@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit, Joy. I really like the silky, feminine blouse with the raw-edged jeans. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-blouse-with-gathers-from-an-early-nas#post-2065202 Mon, 30 Sep 2019 15:19:03 +0000 cindysmith 2065202@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Joy, I think the bow is one of those classic details that comes and goes in and out of trendiness but never looks dated. </p> <p>And when I read your opening line, "The first NAS I participated in..." I had to giggle a little to myself. Here we are, all of us scattered to the four corners of the earth with our respective Bricks and Mortar Nordie's stores, and yet NAS turns into a bit of an online flash mob around here. I love it<br /> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-blouse-with-gathers-from-an-early-nas#post-2064937 Sun, 29 Sep 2019 01:27:29 +0000 Anonymous 2064937@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Shevia. I’m happy that you think it still looks ok. I thought last year I would replace it with a plaid flannel shirt but flannel shirts feel too masculine even in soft colors. I think the ones shown by Johnny Was that have lots of embroidery on top of the plaid may work but they are very pricy. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-blouse-with-gathers-from-an-early-nas#post-2064935 Sun, 29 Sep 2019 01:21:12 +0000 Jaime 2064935@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like the pattern too - still looks great on you! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-blouse-with-gathers-from-an-early-nas#post-2064932 Sun, 29 Sep 2019 00:31:07 +0000 Anonymous 2064932@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Aquamarine. That is a good idea for spring. I hope I can find some beige or tan bottoms. Right now I don’t own any. Other springy colors could also be worn with them.<br /> Thank you, Windchime. The blouse was an Angie pick, I think. Now it’s still in like-new shape, although it has seen many washings. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-blouse-with-gathers-from-an-early-nas#post-2064931 Sun, 29 Sep 2019 00:12:27 +0000 Windchime 2064931@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You certainly made a good buying choice when you added this blouse to your wardrobe over a decade ago. As others have said, the colors are current, and it looks great on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-blouse-with-gathers-from-an-early-nas#post-2064927 Sun, 29 Sep 2019 00:01:25 +0000 Aquamarine 2064927@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oh yes, keep wearing it. Great colors for fall, but you could wear it with beige/tan bottoms in the spring too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-blouse-with-gathers-from-an-early-nas#post-2064897 Sat, 28 Sep 2019 19:42:36 +0000 Anonymous 2064897@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you, Opaline.<br /> Angie, I can’t resist the oldies-but-goodies. Your picks are the best. I would otherwise have overlooked this blouse because of the puffy sleeves.<br /> Bonnie, thank you. I will continue to wear the blouse with confidence. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-blouse-with-gathers-from-an-early-nas#post-2064886 Sat, 28 Sep 2019 18:52:08 +0000 Bonnie 2064886@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is a beautiful blouse and I don't see that it is dated at all.

Bijou, if you are wearing pussy bow blouses, I feel I am in stylish company.<br /> Erin, the colors were a rare find back then. Most offerings were in cool colors, so I grabbed this piece as a wildcard.<br /> Angie, it was so LOOOOOONG ago, wasn’t it? I remember you client, Karen, looking stunning in it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-blouse-with-gathers-from-an-early-nas#post-2064844 Sat, 28 Sep 2019 15:52:01 +0000 Angie 2064844@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I remember the NAS blouse from LOOOOOONG ago.

I love this top on you, the colours are so pretty. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-blouse-with-gathers-from-an-early-nas#post-2064815 Sat, 28 Sep 2019 13:51:03 +0000 Anonymous 2064815@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you all so much for commenting. The blouse will stay. Jenni, I have lost count of NAS years but have really liked everything I have bought; In fact, that blouse is probably older than I thought. I used to wear it at first with a black leather pencil skirt that I no longer have. It is perfect for transitional fall weather. I need to find a way to style it for spring. Any ideas? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-blouse-with-gathers-from-an-early-nas#post-2064800 Sat, 28 Sep 2019 13:08:04 +0000 Katerina 2064800@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a lovely blouse! It suits you beautifully. I really like the pattern and the gathered neckline with the pussy bow. I think pussy bows are classic.<br /> I vote YAY. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-blouse-with-gathers-from-an-early-nas#post-2064798 Sat, 28 Sep 2019 12:59:56 +0000 kellygirl 2064798@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I still have that blouse too. I was just looking at it yesterday thinking I need to get that into rotation. &nbsp;It looks fab on you.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-blouse-with-gathers-from-an-early-nas#post-2064789 Sat, 28 Sep 2019 12:50:08 +0000 nemosmom 2064789@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think it looks beautiful on you - not dated at all. The colors and pattern are really fun, too. So glad you kept it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-blouse-with-gathers-from-an-early-nas#post-2064781 Sat, 28 Sep 2019 12:16:28 +0000 kkards 2064781@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The colors in this are fab.

Perfect illustration of shopping your closet </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-blouse-with-gathers-from-an-early-nas#post-2064775 Sat, 28 Sep 2019 11:29:57 +0000 Dreika 2064775@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful blouse, looks current and actually quite on trend to me. You look great in it! To me blouses (when I manage to find one that I like) are also a nice break from the knit tops and button downs. I see why you’ve kept yours. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-blouse-with-gathers-from-an-early-nas#post-2064761 Sat, 28 Sep 2019 10:01:33 +0000 Liesbeth 2064761@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great blouse. The color palette makes it look very 2019 imo. Like jenni, I keep seeing pussy bows around so I don't think the are dated. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-blouse-with-gathers-from-an-early-nas#post-2064758 Sat, 28 Sep 2019 08:33:30 +0000 Cardiff girl 2064758@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That is a lovely blouse,and the pussyfooted cat bow is subtle not overly large so I think that it won’t date. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-blouse-with-gathers-from-an-early-nas#post-2064754 Sat, 28 Sep 2019 06:31:24 +0000 rachylou 2064754@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It still rocks!

I have seen pussy bow blouses in our very latest Spring fashion magazines so I don’t think they are dated. How many NASs have you done- about 10? I see you’ve been on YLF about 11 years from your profile. A true stalwart! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-blouse-with-gathers-from-an-early-nas#post-2064747 Sat, 28 Sep 2019 04:51:40 +0000 Anonymous 2064747@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Taylor, I am happy that you feel that the blouse is not dated.
