Gap Teacup Blouse and a few WIW's

The Gap teacup top for your consideration, ladies. What do you think? Keep or return?

#1- 2: Styled using Angie's converse and denim formula.

#3: A little dressier with the Gibson riding jacket.

#4: A super casual outfit for a trip to the dentist.

#5: WIW to the mall. The Caslon denim shirt is another fairly new acquisition. I've been looking for one forever.

#6: Lunch with DH and a visit to the university art museum.

#7: Got this cardigan on sale. I know, I need more animal print like I need a hole in the head, but I thought the color was complimentary to my coloring. I think I need to add more browns and tawny colors to my wardrobe. Wore it twice in the past week: with jeans and boots to shop for a new washing machine last Friday, and then again today with the skirt to an appointment. It was rainy and raw today, so I pulled on tights. Hope I've seen the last of them.

As always, comments and suggestions are welcome. Thanks!

Oh, the tea cup top is definitely a keeper! It's such an interesting graphic and it looks fun without being twee. Looks great with the denim jacket and the riding coat. Love of all these looks, in fact!

And I can't help but smile at your Converse. They're classic cool.

Debora, you have such a fabulous style. I love how you dressed the gap button down both up and down. So cute! You always manage to look elegant and hip. I must study your style because I love it! Perhaps I must start balancing on my bath tub too! Great outfits--every single one of them!

I have a teacup fetish so I love the top! I like how you've styled it in different ways. The converse are always a classic, IMO.

Looks great -- I bought it in red and am keeping it. I got loads of compliments on it the day I wore it. It's an unusual pattern

All your other looks are great!

Debora

Hi Beth! Glad you like the converse.

Thanks Kelly and Hedgie!

Ceit, waving at my teacup twin! The graphic design was what first attracted me to it, too.

Definitely keep the teacup blouse. I love how you styled it both ways. Even your casual dentist outfit looks polished and elegant. The denim shirt looks great with black. Love all the outfits actually.

Deborah

The teacup blouse is gorgeous and a little quirky... I like that. Each of these outfits is incredibly fab. Even your casual dentist outfit it sterling. So streamlined and simple but elegant.

I can't even choose a favourite, these are all so fabulous. You have great style! If I had to choose I'm going with number three. The teacup blouse paired with the blazer and skinny jeans is perfection. Would wear it in a minute!

Tanya

You have an incredible style Debora, every outfit is beyond fabulous! First two ones are out of this world. love the teacup blouse and it is such a keeper. Btw, I have the same blouse in navy/white cat print.

So cute!!!! I ordered the teacup blouse in red, but it hasn't come yet. After seeing this, I might just have to have it in the black/white as well.

catgirl

Love the teacup shirt! My son just convinced me to buy the cat one. EEK! I will be taking inspiration from you...

Couldn't help but come out of hiding to comment on your post.
I love your style and the fun you've added to your style with the
teacup blouse. Keep it and wear it.
Great style in all the pictures and the animal print is sassy too.
Could you share information about your bag in #3.
I always look forward to your posts and pictures!!!!

You have wonderful style and all these outfits look great.

Mona

Deborah, definitely keep the teacup blouse. I really like how versatile and fun it is. You have great style and i always like looking at your WIWs

harmonica

That teacup blouse is gorgeous! I really like all these outfits and how you create polished, put together and casual looks at the same time

The winner of the "Audrey" for casuals - ..is Debora. Consistent personal style. Gorgeous.

Thank you all for your kind comments! i enjoyed reading them all over my morning cup of coffee.

Lynne, I hope we get to see your red teacup blouse when it comes. You and Ceit will be twins!

Tanya and Una, I may have to go back and get the cat print blouse! I loved it in the store and these tops are just the thing to sweep away winter's doldrums.

Jenniferblue, I can't tell you how delighted I am that you came out of hiding to comment! The navy clutch in photo #3 is a Lela Rose for Payless bag that my daughter gave me a year or two ago. It doesn't come out to play all that often, but I thought it was the perfect companion for the navy teacups.

Allison, I am blushing. Thank you so much.

Once again, thank you to each and every one of you!

Chiming back in. I usually include links and am thrilled to see the new tool bar for posts where we can add links, bold print and italics! I am going to try to and add a link now. Bear with me if it doesn't work.

Every single outfit is fab Debora and I adore the teacup blouse on you. Pairs beautifully with the Cons.

texstyle

These outfits are all so great - taking notes here! I love how the teacup blouse (black and white graphic) works with the denim jacket. And denim with black is one of my favorite combinations and you've done a fantastic job of styling it together. #1, #3 and #5 are my favorites. And I have serious Gibson Riding Jacket envy. Can't find one in my size now but it's already pretty much summer here anyway. Maybe next fall.

siniestra

I love everything except 4 it look loungewear to me...maybe it's because im looking fabulous styling in the other looks its casual chic

Well aren't you just as cute as can be in your Cups and Cons :). So huggable and youthful! I hope Kindrex sees those outfits.

And so casually elegant in #5!

As always, Deb. You look sensational. xo

I love them all, but 1, 3, & 5 are my personal favorites. And I love that you're standing on the edge of the tub because that's exactly what I do when I want to see all of me.

I say keep the teacup top.

I love the teacup shirt, and thanks for the link so I can check it out. Love the denim shirt as well, and are those AGL flats I spy? You and your bathtub are looking as fabulous as ever!

Charmian

Nooooooooo!!!!! I've been drooling over that teacup blouse for what feels like forever (ok, ok, it's only been a month) and had finally convincingly lied to myself it would look simply aaawwwful, dahhling. But here you go making me want it again!!

Ahem. Ok, I need to calm down. Let's try that again, shall we?

I love how you dressed it up and down in #1 and #3. And that Caslon shirt was worth the wait! That outfit is just fabulous; did you match your necklace to the hardware on your shoes? Wonderful!

MsMary

Oh my gosh, Debora! These are slaying me! Each and every one of them! LOVE LOVE LOVE the new blouse!!

cciele

Love the blouse and how you've styled it! Perfect amount of casual and cool. The denim shirt and animal cardi seem like great workhorse pieces too.

unfrumped

All of these are great outfits. I am a tea drinker, so I would like that blouse!
