Yet another round of loot ::ducks::

Last summer I lived in dresses, which meant I had virtually no summer tops. That's why I'm on a bit of a blousey rampage. I need something to wear with these new shorts!

I thought one of those asymmetrical tops that are so in right now would be a good idea, since they were cropped enough in the front to prevent me from looking pantsless. I tried this one but I'm not feeling too jazzed about it.

I also thought a front-knotted blouse would look cute...and it normally would. This one, though, is hard to tie because I don't have a lot of fabric at the ends, and if I try to unbutton it more to get more fabric, I end up with midriff exposure. I think it would only work with high-waisted things.

So finally I resorted to tucking, my arch nemesis. I feel boxy and frumpy though.

As usual, there is an appalling amount of fabric in the armholes. I am able to pull up at least 4 inches. This seems like an alteration I should figure out how to do myself. It's never going to go away. If I do that though, I definitely won't be able to front-knot it.

I just don't know. I finally found flattering shorts but finding tops for them still leaves me puzzled.

Oh, I also just picked up these polkadot wedges at the flea market a few minutes ago!
