There are few pieces as versatile as a printed blouse. It’s perfect for the office, the nightclub or even your apartment. In the end, it all comes down to the styling — is it tucked in? Buttoned up? You decide.
No matter what your circumstances, there are a few things you should think about when buying a blouse. Firstly, look for a print that is vibrant, but doesn’t seem dated. No one wants to feel like they’re straight out of an 80’s music video. Another thing to consider when you’re buying a blouse is transparency. Make sure you test out your blouse in sunlight before you head out for the day — you could end up living that nightmare where you aren’t wearing a shirt.

Working Girl
For an office appropriate look, pair your blouse with a simple pencil skirt. Be mindful of the color combination with your blouse — this one is tan and black, so the skirt matches no matter what, but you don’t want to look dressed in the dark or matchy-matchy. Instead of buying a skirt in the same color as your blouse, opt for complimentary colors. For the ultimate professional style, tuck it in.

Belt It
With this wide belt, you’ll accentuate your curves in all the right ways. The contrast of the thick leather with the thin, flowy fabric of the blouse will give your outfit dimension and depth. When you’re wearing a statement piece like this belt, keep the rest of your outfit simple with basic pumps and black pants.

Rocker Chic
Just because a blouse can look corporate, don’t feel like you can’t rock it on your day off. Throw on some edgy ribbed leggings like these and you have a completely different look on your hands. If you don’t feel like baring so much skin, look for a textured denim pant or a metallic pair with some pizzazz. Even though the model isn’t wearing any jewelry in this photo, some bangles or a cocktail ring would really set off this look.
