Silk/Satin Blouses

LHommeDeStyle · 10-01-2008

In my opinion I think these are undeniably attractive on any woman, short or tall, skinny or big - but only if it is fitted and has short sleeves.

See this example:

[It is also from Bluefly.com, which means that it is ultra trendy.]

What do you have to say?

The sleeves on that are cute. Not sure about the rest of it.

I love silk blouses! i started wearing them quite abit last year.....i guess it fits in with the whole romantic preppy look?

Romantic-preppy is right.

Going overboard in this look can make you look like a pirate or something out of a Shakespeare play.

the top pictured is a bit too frilly...

i love a sack top in silk or satin though.

Silk or satin blouses can be attractive on some women, but most certainly not all. I'm a prime example of that - put me in anything satin or silk and I look like a clown.

actually- if it is from bluefly then it is usually a PREVIOUS season and therefore NOT on trend...
