Y’all this is the cutest flower blouse. I just love the black and white, the mesh detailing, the ruffles, oh and the $14 price tag. It’s from SheIn. If you’ve never ordered from there, I did a full review with tips here. I ordered my normal size in this blouse, and it fits perfectly. It is fitted, so if you like things a little looser you might size up. I styled it with a skirt for a dressier look and…

Heart Elbow Patch Sweater
December 22, 2017How cute is this heart elbow patch sweater?! I couldn’t resist. It also comes in navy and grey. I loved the white though so that the red heart really stood out.
