There has been a comment explosion on my last post. Thanks, everyone, for your interesting and varied opinions. It's obviously a contentious issue which lots of people have had on their minds. Blogging is still ace though. I wouldn't change it for the world. If you've not yet read about The Ugly Side of Blogging then hop on over and have your say! In other news - the winner of Give-away No. 5 will be announced late tonight.

I can't help but notice that the blouse is all over the show. In the shops. On blogs. On the streets. Everywhere. As a lover of casualwear and simple basics I have a huge gap in my wardrobe for pieces that are pretty, sophisticated and dressy. Feeling inspired by Style Frost (who showcases a different blouse almost every week!) and Milly (her polka dot version is to die for) I decided to peruse the various high street collections online. Here are my favourite finds.
1. Coral Swallow Pussybow Blouse £24.50
2. Spot Pussybow Blouse (only yellow now available) £36
3. Petite Tiered Peter Pan Collar Blouse £32
4. Tiger Print Shirt £38
5. Multi Floral Print Blouse £32
6. Animal Print Tie Neck Blouse £15 (on sale)
7. Double Ruffle Sleeve Blouse £36
8. Black Bird Print Blouse £32
9. Camel Pussybow Blouse £35
Have you been wearing the blouse? Found any cute versions? Has anyone else noticed that items in Topshop are selling out at an unprecedented rate? If you like something you have to buy now or risk missing out altogether... who said there was a recession? Apparently not, according to Topshop customers.What now? Leave me a comment! You can also follow me on bloglovin' or send me a tweet.
Happy Monday girls.
I love the blackbird print blouse!
ReplyDeleteI love all of these, I definitely need to get a few blouses.

I love the pink one! You're right about everything in Topshop selling out quickly. There was an adorable red skirt a while back that I didn't manage to get my hands on - my only hope now is eBay! Sigh!
ReplyDeleteI love blouses! I can't get enough. I want this one http://www.warehouse.co.uk/swallow-print-blouse/Smart-Tops/warehouse/fcp-product/303438 but at £55 it's a bit pricey. Love the Swallow one from DP.
ReplyDeleteAnd I love the brown/rusty colour.

These are so lovely and femenine!

Laura - that Warehouse find is to die for. Shame about the price tag x
ReplyDeletei need that topshop blouse in my life, i am loving coral at the moment. I totally agree though, topshop items are selling out so fast and then they're on ebay for triple the price!

I love the Topshop pink one. I also agree about Topshop selling out of everything. I had to wait till pay day for a bag I wanted and about 5 days before it sold out. It had only been on the website 3 days.
ReplyDeleteUnless Topshop are making less of their items so there isn't so much waste etc...
Great blog thou.

i love the coral swallow pussybow blouse & the double ruffle sleeve blouse!
ReplyDeletei'm not a big purchaser of blouses - i like buying dresses.. but those two are precious!
I've got my eye on the Coral Swallow Pussybow Blouse, I've seen it in the store and it looks lovely!
ReplyDeleteI think I have a similar gap in my wardrobe as I usually wear rather casual clothes and nothing fancy, really. Anyway, I've been swooning over the DP swallow blouse, but not really sure how I would look with the knot in front..
ReplyDeleteMy favorite is #7 :) sooo cute! x

The swallow blouse is my favourite, so nice!
ReplyDeleteOh i love blouses, they're so classy and sophisticated :) Great selection but that spot pussybow blouse is probably my favourite!xx
ReplyDeleteI love this post and I'm a blouse addict as you already know!!! I think I've actually tried some of those lol! You're right about topshop, everything sells out quick and I always order things immediately as I fear it will go! I always check the 'back in stock' section too as sometimes things do re-appear! New Look surprisingly seem to have some really nice blouses too! Thanks for the mention, really sweet of you, happy that I inspired you, hope it doesn't start an addiction like mine LOL! X
ReplyDeleteI'm loving blouses at the moment! These are some great picks!
ReplyDeleteTopshop do amazing blouses, but it's hard to justify the price tags! I love blouses at the minute, but still haven't found the perfect one. Ideally I would like a sheer one with long sleeves. I saw one in Primark the other day that I love but couldn't get it and when I looked at it after a few minutes it had flown off the shelf. Hate it when that happens xo
ReplyDeleteAAAHHH I really need some blouses! Love this post xx
ReplyDeleteso true about Topshop selling out items so quick online. i saw a dress one day and the next it was sold out in every size!!! mental!
ReplyDeletexx
I would wear all of these. :)
ReplyDeleteNumber nine is defiantly my favorite! Although I do love all of the they are so wearable!
