Embroidered Blouse

It’s so interesting how things photograph versus what they look like in real life.  This blouse is actually a bit sheer (in a classy way, mmkay) and has beautiful movement.  Which, unfortunately, just doesn’t exactly translate in pictures, but it’s all good.  Now you know.  I purchased this one on sale from ASOS last month and absolutely love the dramatic high neck and feminine floral embroidery.  I also appreciate a button up blouse that can actually stay closed, that is a rarity in my world.  Can’t wait to re-wear this and style it up again soon!

I don’t know what the heck has come over me this year, but I’ve somehow already switched into Christmas mode.  It is both irritating and awesome all at the same time.  I’m currently singing along to Christmas music, have completed my gift list and even watched half of Elf the other day.  This is truly a record early start for my holiday spirit, I’m using all my will power not to decorate the place this week (Adam says I must wait until this weekend, which I’m sure I can do…).  I just don’t want the holidays to pass me by in a stressful blur, you know?  I’m normally that person staying up until 2 am on Christmas Eve wrapping all my gifts.  Not this time!  I’d rather have time to do some baking and crafting and have all the shopping done.  And I’m like 75 years old at heart, so this is probably going to be the best holiday season ever!
