Pleats + Pops of Pink

A Little Color in Anticipation of Spring

Spring is almost here! Yes, I know it’s still February, but that doesn’t mean I can’t soak up those few 60 degree days (I know, crazy right?!) that we’ve had recently. To celebrate the fact that spring will be here soon, I’m adding a little more color to my wardrobe with this blouse. The end of February through March seems to be a long stretch of dirty snow and general dreariness. Every year around this time, I start to get major spring fever, so when I came across my new favorite blouse from Banana Republic, I knew it would be the perfect way to brighten things up a bit. Plus, I’m loving the bright pink pops against the dark background.

Pleated Details

A little extra detail never goes unnoticed. For me, these little pleated accents stood out right away and gave the blouse that perfect feminine touch. I’m a sucker for pleats anyway, but having these so delicately placed added a little something extra!
