I'm not sure if it's because I was a cheerleader my entire adolescent (and some adult) life but I love bows. The more the better. I love them on bags, shoes, jewelry, headbands, etc. Needless to say, I'm delighted that they're trendy right now on shirts. If you're like me, you're probably on a budget. So, I've found the bow top trend three ways and paired them with a less expensive version.
First up, is a more relaxed version of the trend. Inspiration was the $225 top from Bloomingdale's. While the less expensive version isn't exact, I tend to prefer the cheaper version. What about you? Next, is the bow tie collar blouse. I am absolutely in LOVE with the teal and pink Gucci blouse. It is probably my favorite bow shirt I've found. I'm seriously swooning over the color combination, the buttons, the cuffs and the collar. Unfortunately, spending over $1,000 on it is crazy unrealistic, so I found a similar shirt. While it isn't exact, it does have an adorable scalloped collar. I'm going to keep hunting to find a closer style. Finally, a bolder take on the bow trend. My inspiration is the Johanna Ortiz striped shirt with bows on the shoulders. It's a great spin on the bow trend and I just adore the style. It's been fun seeing different designers take on the bow obsession. I like this one because I'm crushing on statement sleeves and this puts my love of bows and statement sleeves together. Unfortunately, $995 for a top is a LOT, so I've found a similar version $40 from Chicwish. I love the bell sleeve with the ruffle details above the bows. This one is on my wish list for sure. All shirts are linked above in the smaller images below the collage. I'd love to hear from you! What do you think about the bow trend? Will you be incorporating it into your fall wardrobe?

Buffalo plaid is hot right now and I think it’s a great pattern that can be bought as a steal. Unlike the Burberry plaid, when someone sees buffalo plaid, their first recognition isn’t the brand name. Old Navy has really been on point with their clothes recently and their $27 buffalo plaid is no different. Available in two colors and super comfortable it is a much better deal than the $264 Rag & Bone buffalo plaid shirt. Old Navy having their stuff and save event so it is even less than $27.
I'm all about upgrading my wardrobe each season but that can get very expensive. That's why I think it's key to purchase a few select items that are splurges and get other items that are steals. One example, the JCrew herringbone vest. It's hot right now. Anything close to it is going to look like a knockoff. An area for a steal? Solid puffer vest. This has been a staple in wardrobes for years so by getting a solid vest, you can save money while still having your style be on point. JCrew makes a very cute vest for $120 but JCPenny has a similar one for only $19. So, go ahead and buy the Herringbone vest guilt free because you know you can get a second vest for only $20 (and still be under your budget). Not bad you savy shopper! |
