Blouse - Brodée vichy terracotta

I wore this for a lunch with friends and got three compliments before we even sat down. The little red and pink flowers scattered across the gingham are embroidered, not printed, so they have a lovely raised texture you can actually feel. The ruffled cuffs are my favorite part, they make a plain pai

The scalloped trim along the neckline and cuffs is what sold me — it gives the blouse such a sweet vintage feel without looking costumey. The cotton vichy is light enough for warm days but not sheer, and the little red and caramel flowers got compliments the first time I wore it.

The little embroidered flowers in red and caramel are so much prettier in person than on screen. The ruffled collar sits nicely without gaping, and the cotton washed well without losing its shape. I've already worn it twice this week.
