Blouse - Geplisseerd ruit forest

The plissé pleats survived a full day at my desk without looking crushed, which is more than I can say for most cotton blouses I own. The yellow and white checks are a bit bolder in person than on screen, but that's exactly what I wanted.

The lace trim on the Claudine collar is such a pretty detail, and the ruffles at the shoulders give it a nice shape without feeling fussy. I went with my usual size and the oversize cut is roomy but still looks put together tucked into jeans.

The forest green with yellow checks is way prettier in person than I expected, and the oversized cut drapes nicely without swallowing me. Sleeves are long enough for my arms too, which rarely happens with this style.
