Toppers for zara white shirt and benetton blouse - help!

May 17, 2012

I have only owned t shirts all my life, so now that I have some woven tops/blouses, I find myself struggling a bit as far as toppers (jackets, cardigans etc) go. So I thought I would post some pics to get your opinions :-)

Pls excuse the cut off head/bare feet. It is late so I couldn't be bothered to do my hair or put on shoes. I also didn't try out all my bottoms since I was just testing out toppers.

Pics 1 to 3 are of my Zara blouse with my two denim jackets and leather jacket. Does the length of the shirt work with them?

Pics 4-6 are of my Benetton blouse with my off white blazer, turquoise cardigan and denim jacket. Do these look okay? I'm sorry the cardigan is a bit askew, I just threw it on. I would scrunch the sleeves to add more interest.

    I think all of these work brilliantly with your two woven shirts, Kirti. You have a wonderful collection of jackets and how fun that you are becoming a fan of woven tops too;-)

  • Kirti replied 11 years ago

    Wow thanks Inge :-) and yes, staying in France has led to this collection!

  • Meredith1953 replied 11 years ago

    They all look wonderful Kirti! I am in love with that Benneton shirt!

  • HelenInCanada replied 11 years ago

    Coveting all of these toppers - great choices. They all work beautifully. How versatile is that white shirt?!

  • Jonesy replied 11 years ago

    I think they all look great! Welcome to Team Wovens :)!

    Perfect tops. I see no issues.

  • Amy replied 11 years ago

    They all look great to me! I really love that orange jacket.

    Kirti, I'm no help at all here. I just got a white BB shirt and I clicked your thread to steal all your good ideas. Thanks for the tips! I think you're off to a great start. :)

    YES to everything! These all work brilliantly (I especially love the combination in pic #4)

  • Kirti replied 11 years ago

    Thanks Mer! I love it too, it is such a lovely combo of browns and yellow :-)

    Helen: I always thought people exaggerated the versatility of a white shirt! Now I know better!

    Thanks Jonesy and Zapotee :-)

    Amy: Thank you! It is actually a bright tomato red that I love too!

    Claire: Ooh you did? I cannot wait to see you styling it. Especially with your denim jackets and navy blazer :-)

    Thabks Shannon! That one is my fave too!

    They all work and now look at all the mix and match things you have gathered lately!

    Your blouses look great with all these toppers. I'd like to see the collars popped out when you wear the blouses with the jackets - kind of how Angie does but that;s a personal preference so take it with a grain of salt.

  • Kirti replied 11 years ago

    Thanks Christieannz! And yeah, I definitely have shopped up a storm :-P but they're all great versatile pieces so totally worth it :-)

    Kiwichik: Only the white one has a collar, but thanks I will try the collar pop when I wear it next :-)

    Love the denim over the print especially, and indeed the white shirt is so great with everything that it is impossible to play favourites! How about the orange jacket over the print blouse too?

  • Kirti replied 11 years ago

    Manidipa: Oh yeah! Why didn't I think of that? Will try it asap, thanks :)

  • Angie replied 11 years ago

    Agreed! You look fabulous in all of these outfits.

  • Kirti replied 11 years ago

    Yay thanks Angie :-)
