White blouse

Lisa

Hello everyone. I'm new here. I am looking for a page where I could buy a white blouse with ruffles. Frills around the neckline or on the cuffs. Are such blouses currently in fashion? Please advice

in the link below I am sending a photo of the blouse I found in the wardrobe. Do you think it's still fashionable?

Yes, the blouse is fashionable!

May I suggest trying Ralph Lauren for ruffled blouses.

Thank you very much for your answer Angie. I'd like to wear my blouse on the weekend. Could you girls advise what might suit her best? A skirt or maybe some pants (if so, what kind). Or whether to wear something over this blouse or go only in it? I don't want to be too elegant. I am asking you for help thank you !!!

In the weekend I would wear a blouse like this with jeans (straight or bootleg or wide leg) in a mid wash and then footwear could be anything from ballet flats to loafers or sneakers.

I could also see it with a midi skirt and flats.

As it is a dressy fabric (to my eye) to wear it casually I would choose something more relaxed on the bottom for weekend wear rather than a pencil skirt or tailored trousers. I do think it would suit tailored trousers.

I think you could wear a jacket or blazer over it , or a nice cami underneath if you want warmth. I think you could wear it solo too - it may be sheer so the right lingerie will be important.

It depends on the occasion, but I generally would do what Sal does and wear a blouse like this with jeans and some cute platform sandals. Do you have a specific event to wear it to? Beautiful blouse!

Thank you for your answers girls. The blouse is made of silky polyester trimmed with a satin trim.
And as for the weekend, it's a party at a friend's (nothing serious) or a walk in the park with my fiance. The only question is whether I will not look old-fashioned in it? I don't want to fool around. I am asking for an honest answer: D one person told me that the blouse is too fancy. Is it better to look for a different blouse ?

I think it's all in the styling now. I think there are very few things that are "out" any more - there are things I don't wear of course. I don't wear skinny jeans but lots of my friends do - they never really suited me so I was happy to move past them. I have always liked sheath dresses and have worn them for a number of years.

I don't see it as old fashioned and I would wear this. I do think with a ruffled skirt it could feel too fancy - but not with great jeans or olive pants.

But if you are unconfident about it you could pick something similar but different eg a silky cream shirt with a collar or a high neck blouse with puffed sleeves and a ruffle at the collar (these are definitely trendy - the cream blouse is classic).

Would this skirt make sense with this blouse?

I think the suspender/shoulder straps would fight with the ruffles. Seperately yes, together no. That's only my opinion though.

I think your blouse is gorgeous so I 'googled' "frilly blouse with skirt" in images. There are dozens of pics that might give you ideas if you wished to do that too. Best wishes to all.

Maybe with high waisted, wide legged pants?

It’s fashionable. I agree the suspenders could interfere with the ruffles. I’d wear it with jeans or coloured trousers or skirt… not black I don’t think. And not a floral skirt - I feel that could stray into stodgy territory.

I attach pictures of two pairs of pants which I think would fit. Is the blouse set with black pants ok? I checked the jeans and they fit perfectly, also with shorts.
It's my sister's birthday on Saturday and I wanted it a little more elegant.

Just please, honestly girls

These look like great outfits with either pair of pants! Will you wear a white camisole under the blouse? And what are you thinking for shoes?

Angie this blouse is not see-through, so I'll only wear underwear. With these pants I would have to wear high heels because the pants are too long (size S :D) to be flat. The question is how should I tie her? High under the bust or looser below the navel ?

Don't you think black pants and a white blouse looks boring? Which of these pants fit better? I have a wedding anniversary next week, so I need some advice: D

Thanks !

I think all those options would work. With the black pants I would add some jewelry too. In terms of tying I think both could be fab- try both. I think higher is more fun and sexy, and lower is more dressy and elegant.

I found two more ruffled shirts. Both are made of slippery / silky polyester. I suppose I'll throw them in the trash or sell them. Are any of them, in your opinion, still wearable? Thank you for your sincere advice!

Late to the party ... I like your blouse with the black pants. Not boring at all, both pieces are particular. I would keep the jewelry at minimum with this "statement" blouse. What footwear do you plan to wear?
I also like the two last blouses you posted. The white one - I would wear in a heartbeat. Nr. 2 is not my style at all, but I like it as well.

I'd like it more with the lighter pants, but that's just my low contrast coloring bias talking!
I had a very similar blouse in the 90s and wore it with flowy pants, probably with maxi skirts too.

I could only wear this set with high-heeled shoes because the pants are too long for a flat sole

I have another question. Sleeves shouldn't be on 3/4 of a hand? The second layer of frills ends in the middle of my hand. Doesn't that look a bit weird? The blouse does not seem too big.

Sorry I did not explain well, I meant whether you will wear closed shoes or sandals (disclaimer: big fan of sandals here ) . I think jewel sandals would look fab - but that's just me of course. As per the sleeve length I think at mid-hand is even better. Less fussy and I do not think it looks weird.

I like the original top you listed the best of the three. The last two look dated to me but I’m not sure I could tell you why. Would love to see the first top on you in an outfit.
