This turquoise floral blouse works for both winter and spring.

Now is the time of year when I start itching to wear anything but a sweater. I’m over winter, over being totally bundled up, and ready to start experimenting with spring-y type prints and colors. This is a tall order in KC during February when the cold turns bitter and we’ll enjoy a week or two straight of single-digit temps. But wind chill factor be damned, I’m braving the elements in this turquoise floral blouse.
What I dig about this top is how the color palette straddles seasons; this blouse could be January (with a blazer or a jacket) or it could be May (with a pair of crisp white trousers). Get a similar look here and here with these blouses. I took advantage of a warm(er) winter day and shot this look, pairing the turquoise floral blouse with a pair of wide-leg jeans and slingback heels.
Shop the look:
It’s pretty well known that I’m into wide-leg denim these days, and this pair doesn’t disappoint with its high waist and cropped hem. I like the classic wash, too. These heels look way more expensive than they are. They’re quite Gucci-esque for a fraction of the price. I’m into that big gold buckle and the height is perfect for adding some sophistication to a look without sacrificing comfort.
The jewelry here plays on all the turquoise happening in the blouse. A blue tourmaline ring and an ombré blue topaz ring add some little punches of color, while a (very! cheap!) pair of Amazon earrings brings in a little tortoiseshell.
For colder (read: normal) winter days, I’ll layer on a black boyfriend blazer over the top or even a neutral sweater vest. Both add a layer of warmth and keep things stylish.
Episode 4 of The Adults Aren’t Alright: 90’s Boy Band Oral History.
Who doesn’t love a 90’s boy band? Or 90’s pop music in general? This week on the pod I’m sitting down with my best friend, Sabrina Osborn (who is also the talent behind the camera here at LSR), to take a deep dive into everything from Lou Perlman and how he created the Backstreet Boys, the BSB vs. NSYNC war, the epic daily event that was TRL, and lots of boy bands and pop groups along the way. The episode is right here or on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or Google.

Wow! Such a cute look. It’ll hurry Spring in. 🙂
Bring it on- I’m ready for a warmer season! 🙂
The colors in the blouse are just gorgeous! And I sure can imagine it all the different ways you mentioned. Loving my wide leg denim too.

I haven’t worn a skinny jean in a MINUTE, haha. I still love them, but just have been experimenting with different styles recently.
You look so gorgeous! I love the floral blouse, but those jeans stole my heart! I need a pair! Have a lovely week!

Thank you, babe! Hope you’re having a great week!
Yes, I’m so over winter and I feel like January/February are just the COLDEST months and I hate that I can’t get outside to run (and opt for warmth inside on the treadmill!). I love this floral top and it is so cute tucked in with the wide legged denim.

Happy New Year, Ashley! I love your floral print top! I’m so done with the cold weather too. Your look makes me excited for spring … although why did the groundhog have to see his shadow?! Lol! And…when did you start your podcast? I had no idea. I will definitely check out! Who didn’t love the boy bands of the 90s?!

Popping over from Gail’s link up! I love these wide leg pants! I wonder if I need to crop mine (I’m only 5’1). You look fabulous in them! I’m not quite over winter as it’s just sort of begun here in central Indiana!

This is such a beautiful blouse, Ashley! And those shoes are gorgeous.
Your podcast episode sounds SO good, I was always a huge Backstreet Boys fan, but loved the other boy bands too. And TRL brings back so many memories, goodness, what a time to be alive, haha!
Make Life Marvelous
What a beautiful blouse! It looks great with your jeans and I like the colours combined! I always like purple and blue together, and blue and orange, but I’ve never tried all 3 together yet, this looks awesome! 🙂
Hope that you are having a lovely weekend! We had a playdate yesterday and today is the last day of the summer school holidays 🙂
Away From The Blue
Pretty colors and print in this all-seasons blouse. I love the shirring on the neckline, very unusual! Thanks for linking, Ashley.
id wear this in a heartbeat! Love the colors in the blouse – the blue is so pretty on you and the jeans with those fab pumps ! I am fond of the wide leg cropped style too- one of my go tos in the Spring.
