………………………This MINI FLORAL print blouse, A385146, in the PINE MULTI was created specifically to go with the Pine Tartan blazer……The colors are exact and the two fabrics meld together perfectly…..This may look like a very simple band collar blouse, but it is far from simple!……The fabric is a LIGHT AS AIR WOVEN GEORGETTE, so it’s perfect for layering especially in the south where layering can become hot. The fabric drapes and flows and has a very feminine look…..It reminds me of something I might see in a Sundance catalog, worn by a model who has it half tucked into jeans, cowboy boots and some southwest jewelry…..It’s just that kind of print…..not fussy or formal at all…The entire blouse can easily be tucked in if you care to….it’s that light………Starting at the top the blouse….it has a very narrow stand , more like the stand on a man’s dress shirt…..It has a narrow delicate PLACKET FRONT…..The buttons are very sweet….They are tiny COVERED buttons in the SELF FLORAL FABRIC, and have two tiny METAL SILVER GROMMETS………The shoulder has a SMOCKING treatment which is hard to see due to the print, but it adds a feminine touch to the blouse and also creates the flow and ease to the body of the blouse….The smocking also provides some STRETCH…..There is a back yoke which just adds to the casual look……The sleeve is finished with a narrow buttoned band cuff, and a narrow ruffle……..Actually, more like a FLUTTER than a ruffle……..The bottom of the blouse has a curved hem which looks great worn out…….As I said this is a 100% polyester georgette so there is sheerness to the blouse, but due to the ease and the dense print “we” all felt there was no need to line it…….There will always be some who will feel more comfy with a light cami, but truly a nude bra will suffice……The blouse may have been designed to go with the plaid, but you can see from the photos at the right that it also is a wonderful compliment to PLUM…..shown under the Plum jacket and Plum cardigan…..If you own any thing in my forest green like the TCF blazer, or the faux suede pant, this print will look great with that too…..PLAY, PLAY, PLAY….Again, the WINE GLITTERATI works perfectly and blends with the print so there is no clashing or one competing with the other….it’s all very harmonious…………………….enjoy…………much Love………..Louis
