I love me some ruffles

I've always loved ruffles. One of my favorite tops circa '06 had a big giant ruffle in front, and I wore it constantly even if my then boyfriend said I looked like an oyster. Whatever, I loved it. So when I saw this periwinkle ruffled dress on the Wink website, I fell in love. I'm not too crazy about the $330 pricetag though. Hopefully it goes on sale soon.

I also quite like this merino wool cardie with cotton and chiffon ruffles on the neckline by J.Crew. Not an impulse buy at $118 but it looks like one of those pieces that will become a wardrobe workhorse. Perfect for work, it would dress up any basic tee or tank. But still, I'm gonna wait for this one to go on sale. Everything seems to go on sale relatively quickly these days.

I stumbled onto this top on the Urban Outfitters website and was pleasantly surprised to find out that it's a piece done in collaboration with Geren Ford. The line is called Hawks by Geren Ford. The top is $78, which is a tad pricey for Urban Outfitters but ...

... it's a lot cheaper compared to this actual Geren Ford top at Shopbop, which retails for $235. Of course the Hawks version is cotton/poly while the Geren Ford blouse is made of silk. But I'd trust myself with the cotton version, since I'm not the best at doing laundry. But again, I'd wait a few weeks to see if it goes on sale.

That's all folks.
