See Right Through You

Alright let's get a little sassy on this hump day. I'm thinking sheer. I love a beautiful sheer blouse for the end of summer/early fall because it's professional but also weather appropriate.

Zara, Long Sleeve Blouse, $59
Simple navy and red is a great combination for this pin point dot print. 

Modcloth, Love Ballad Tunic, $37
This sweet blouse is easily dressed up or down. I love the tunic button style and the tab sleeves.

Nordstrom, Lush Chiffon Baseball Tee, $34
I kind of love this shirt. It's a great laid back top for Saturdays or watching the game at a friend's place.

And then there is the simple solid sheer. I'm a sucker for a tie front so this one is a clear winner for me.

Sheer blouses are a great option for September. Pair them with skinny jeans or tuck it into a pencil skirt.

It's the Sheer Choice

Hey lovebugs,
Happy Monday to you! I hope you had a wonderful Father's Day! Today we're going not so daddy-friendly. We're going sheer. Stay with me. A beautiful sheer blouse is an easy and light way to dress up this summer.

Forever 21, Graduated Sequin Top, $22
Look how adorable this top is. I love how the stripes are different sizes and the sleeves are so casual.

A great take on a plaid top with tab sleeves and a pastel color pattern.

Nordstrom, Print Halter Tank, $46
A great going out blouse with some white denim. This top also has a great peek-a-boo back feature.

Lord and Taylor, Tribal Print Sheer Blouse, $34
This is a great fitted top because of the elastic waist hem.

Sheer isn't always gross. Choose a beautiful print to help distract if you're a bit nervous.

Hey lovebugs,
Happy humpday, we're getting there. And it's going to be a long weekend, so just hang in there!

Today we're looking at short-sleeve sheer sweaters, in particular, cardigans. They're a great transition piece for summer into fall when you want to add a super light layer to an outfit.

A beautiful color and very easy to belt to define a waist.

A preppy sort of sheer. The dolman sleeve is also a great detail to add to this cardi.

Lord and Taylor, J Jones Open Weave Knit Cardigan, $21
Love this open weave knit! So simple and delicate. And the price is spot on.

A pretty v-neck style, makes this the perfect late September cardigan.

Short sleeve cardigans are so easy to mix into your wardrobe, but the open knit, or gauze style is even easier to wear when it's still warm out.

Sheer Shirt

Lovebugs, How are you feeling about sheer these days? Are you avoiding it or willing to give it a try. I think with the correct fit and the appropriate under shirt, it's a great style to add a little sexy to your wardrobe.

I'm loving this shirt. It comes in three other punchy colors. The collar, sleeve and length is just perfect.

Forever 21, Sheer Retro Print Shirt, $14
This fun print is perfect for a mini skirt, or under a suit. Yes, ladies a suit. Wear the appropriate camp and add a longer necklace and you got an outfit.

I love this thick gingham print, this is great for vacation.

Hello sweet peter pan collar and great green color! How perfect would this be with skinny jeans or white eyelet shorts?

So fear not, lovebugs, when I saw sheer I don't mean Gaga sheer, I mean lady like sheer, a little dangerous but mostly just downright hot sheer.

Sheer Bliss

Sheer is huge this year, from the red carpet to everyday wear. I really like the trend when it's not super sexy, but more understated and feminine. Take a look at these options.

This dress is so adorable for the weekend. The print is just lovely.

Ooo I just love this piece! So sleek and so sophisticated.

T Tahari, Tova Sequined Dress, $89
Ok, I usually don't post items with limited sizes; but how could I resist this beauty?

Well hello Mad Men. This natural waist dress is just spectacularly feminine.

How are you wearing sheer this season? Special occasions only?

See Right Through Me!

Sometimes what material a garment is made out of makes it stands out the most.  Not the pattern or fit but what it is made out of.  Not to be cheesy but isn't that what makes each and everyone of us the most interesting in the room, what we're made of?

There are plenty of options to choose from when making piece of clothing- one great way to make a piece interesting is to make it sheer! Now stay with me, I'm not thinking Playboy sheer, I mean romantic, delicate, intriguing sheer.  Let me explain.

Forever 21, Sheer silk chiffon, $25
I love the neckline of this blouse, and the color makes it that much richer.  

Nordstrom, bellatrix silk chiffon, $78
Tunic structure give this feminine print a little edge.

Can we talk about the pleating and wrapping that focuses the eye to the smallest part of the waist?! Genius!

Anthropologie, Slant Stripes Top, $40
Sheer doesn't have to be super dressy, this top is great to wear around town on errands or for brunch with friends.

Sheer can be a great way to add interest to an outfit.  That being said, PLEASE wear the appropriate undergarments.  The point of sheer is not to show the world your goods- wear a cami underneath and work the outfit for what is it not whats underneath!
