Cold Shoulder Blouse + Jean Shorts

I’m back with another outfit post featuring this cute blouse I found at The Limited. As I mentioned before, for the spring and summer months, I’m slowly incorporating a few new pieces into my wardrobe to mix and match with what I already have. While at The Limited a couple weeks ago, I accidentally stumbled upon this adorable cold shoulder blouse. I was making a purchase for someone else, and needed another item in order to get my discount using my Virtual Dollars. I decided to check out the rack filled with online returns and found this gem. The cold shoulder and off-the-shoulder trend is in this season, so of course I wanted to try it. This blouse was an additional 30% off, plus I was able to use my virtual dollars, so immediately I knew it was coming home with me.

These jean shorts have been in my closet for a couple years. I can tell I haven’t worn them in quite some time because they were a struggle to get into. I don’t remember them being this tight in the waist area. It’s a good thing my blouse is forgiving and easily hides the muffin top I have going on underneath…another reason to love this blouse even more!

Have you tried the cutout trend yet? What are your thoughts? Let me know in the comments below!
