hot around the collar

The racks at a Lucky cover photo shoot are always rife with fun styling ideas, and at the last one, there were loads of embellished collared blouses layered underneath basic crewneck sweaters. I loved how the collars worked to transform the knits into veritable statement pieces (Caroline Issa proves this in the pic above), and, of course, the mixing and matching possibilities were endless. Come sweater weather, you'll see me incorporating these combos into my workaday life. If you are also so inclined, here are some collared blouses you can play with from Topshop, Miss Selfridge (similar to Issa's blouse above), Club Monaco, and Maison Scotch.
