A Versatile Blouse (and a White Plum Giveaway!)
When I did the great purge of my closet, it was immediately apparent to me that tops were the mega weak spot in my closet.
For years, it was pants. I generally owned a single pair of jeans I liked. But right now, I have a decent collection of pants I like and that fit me well and I have to keep myself from buying more.
This blouse from White Plum is exactly what I was looking for. A nice mix of neutral and fun – I love the little studs on the hem, but I like that they are subtle too – and it’s easy to dress up or down. (If you use the code JANSSEN20, you’ll get 20% off your whole order until May 7th).
White Plum isn’t new to me (I wrote a post for them last year about my secrets for visiting a new city) and I love their wide variety of cute tops, dresses. And I really like that it’s a woman-owned business, started by a mom.
They’re giving away a $75 gift certificate to their shop (I have my eye on this top – I won’t even let myself look at non-shirt items right now), and you’ll definitely have no problem finding something you love.

My summer staple are a nice pair of sandals.
I love a great dress (for my summer staple), but I agree that I am lacking in the blouse department. Love this top!
Mine are khaki shorts,tank tops, sandals,and short sleeved shirts.
Every year I hunt for more summer dresses. If 10 years ago you would have told me I prefer to wear dresses to anything else, I would have laughed in your face. (not really, that's kind of rude)
I love the blouse. I always feel that blouses that are that blouse-y make me look bigger than I am, but maybe I'll try again this summer.
I have this one blue and white sleeveless top with a scoop neck and a couple henley buttons that I need more like it this summer. I wore it non stop last summer because it looks great with jeans or shorts or a skirt. I even wear it to work with a brightly colored cardigan.
I keep buying jeans, which is a shame because I can't wear them to work. What I really need to focus on is tops!
favorite summer wardrobe staples: knit dresses, strappy flats and loose tops!
Cute top! Lately I've gotten into comfy knit skirts and t-shirts or tanks for summer. And I finally found some long shorts that don't make me look stumpy…of course, it'll be next summer before I fit into them again (having a baby in a few weeks so…my summer wardrobe is going to be all about loose and/or stretchy this year). 🙂
I love the top
I love that top….I am due to have a baby in three weeks so I am assuming I could use looser fitting summer tops this year 🙂
white plum is my absolute favorite! I wasn't aware it was a woman-owned business–how cool! love that top on you
My staple this summer is going to be stretchy pencil skirts and t shirts. I even bought the one you wore from Avenlie on one of your posts. So cute.
I love a good pair of shorts with some sandals.
In Texas, shorts are my necessity!
Cheapy tank tops, short sleeve cardigans, and shorts!
Tube skirts and a swimsuit! Can't live without either.
I love to wear maxi dresses in the summer.
My summer wardrobe will consist of comfy skirts and t-shirts!
Tank top and shorts is definitely my go-to outfit in the summer 🙂
I love a fun summer dress!
