Trend Alert: The White Blouse

10/06/2008 09:36:00 AM Posted by Christina

What is black, white and chic all over?


Conventional spring trends include bright colors and warm neutrals, but some designers have taken a new approach to the otherwise luminescent season: black and white.

The white button-up blouse has bein reinvented in an 80's flashback in an oversized fit. With longer lengths and looser sleeves, this trend is back with full force!

Wear with skinny jeans or pants, or a pencil skirt. But don't stop there. Go for a relaxed look by wearing it on the outside this time, with loose-fitting denim or cropped pants--and belt it if you dare...


Add your own flair to one of these pieces with...


1. Ruffles...


2. Tailored...


3. With pockets...
4. Or collarless...

1. Roberto Cavalli Ruffle Lapel Blouse, $1,160 2. Jil Sander Covered Button Shirt, $393 3. Golden Goose Golden Shirt, $395 4. Pagan Frill Shirt, $50


Rihanna is always one step ahead of the trends...
