All Tied Up

As you may be starting to see I am a huge fan of ladylike fashion. And bows are no exception. I love the feminine embellishment and touch of romance they add. Best of all bows can be worn at any size, it doesn't matter how small or big they are, and they can be added to anything from a dress to a headband to a great handbag.

They also immediately make me picture Blair Waldorf (who by the way has been included in numerous lists for best dressed tv character) from Gossip Girl explaining that the bow on a headband should always be worn on the right side. You may also want to consider a little do it yourself project by adding a bow to a boring piece of clothing in your closet or consider wearing a ribbon instead of a belt.

Dressy and Delicate in Romantic Ruffles

There's nothing more romantic or feminine than ruffles. Since ruffles are light and airy they are perfect for Spring. They can be incorporated into your clothes for any type of situation. The pencil skirt below would be perfect to wear to an important meeting at work and the tank tunic would be great to wear while running errands on a Saturday morning. The Ardenb one shoulder dress is my favorite piece. The lilac color is beautiful for this time of year and I can picture anyone dressed in this receiving numerous compliments. The key to ruffles is to keep the other articles of clothing you are wearing simple.
