Guess what? Just flipped over to my Nordstrom wishlist because I'm looking for the J brand denim shorts featured in Angie's blog post today ...

Meanwhile, THE red blouse is on sale!

I know - gorgeous isn't it? Una found it and posted here at the forums awhile back. I promptly put it on my wishlist. Not sure I'll actually order it, but we'll see. I do love it, just that it's a bit pricey (for me), even on sale. I mean, it's not out of the realm of possibility, but not exactly inexpensive either. I'm very tempted.

It seems short. How would you wear it?

You're right modgirl - I hadn't looked too closely at it when I first popped it into my wishlist. Fell in love with the colour, style and fabrication. Upon further reflection, it seems this might only work with a skirt? Perhaps high waisted pants of some kind? Scratching my head a bit here...

One reason I'm not rushing to buy it is because I *know* that by buying this, I would be purchasing for a 'fantasy life' as Angie would say, whereas the denim J brand shorts featured in today's blog post would get worn a lot - the shorts and the blouse are around the same price.

Good eye modgirl, and thanks for pointing this out. The blouse is so pretty that I might have just bought it (splurged a bit) without thinking too much about how it would fit into my life or wardrobe. Thanks!

I just ordered it so we'll find out. I need more summer-ish tops to wear alone and untucked with skirts, but short sleeves are not much of an option here, and it may not be that short on me. My two worries are the sheerness and the shoulders, but we will see!

Thank you so much for posting this alert as I rarely check my wishlist.

Oooh...I can't wait to hear what you think of it. I'm *still* kind of tempted, despite the fact that long sleeves really aren't practical for me in summers, and I'm a bit concerned about how it looks short in the front, as per what modgirl pointed out. I hope it works out for you Una!

22" front length is just about right for me - I'm thinking I could tuck the back and leave the front out, or leave it all untucked. Will post pictures when it arrives!
