This silver blouse catches the light with an allover floral swirl woven through with fine lurex thread, giving it a soft metallic shimmer that photographs beautifully and looks even better in person. The round neckline sits neatly at the collarbone, and the fitted bodice is shaped with princess seams that carry through to a self-fabric tie belt at the waist. Three shell buttons run down the front, and the sleeves are gently puffed at the shoulder before narrowing to the elbow. Below the belt, the blouse flares into a soft peplum hem.

Wear it with a high waisted skirt or wide leg trousers and let the peplum do the sculpting of your figure. Or use the tie around your neck to creare an elongated look. The metallic thread holds its own without any other jewellery, so keep the rest of the outfit simple and let this piece do the talking.
