Tie-Front Blouses

Everyone seems crazy about the tie-front blouse these days - eluxury even has a whole "Trend Watch" section devoted to them, which is where I found the lovely Zac Posen version above. So, it's no surprise that nearly every retailer currently has some iteration of this trend in store...some better than others, of course. I actually have a few of these blouses hanging around my closet from the last time they were all the rage and I'm thinking these will look great with all the super-slouchy trousers coming out for Fall.

Here's a peak at every type of tie-front blouse you can imagine from stripes to shiny to flowery. Happy shopping!

STRIPES: These are some of my favorites...obviously, because of my love of stripes. French Connection Frankie Stripe Shirt ($39.99), Old Navy Tie-Neck Top ($15.00), Gap Fitted Tie-Neck Shirt ($32.99) and ASOS Pinstripe Top ($108.15) and

SHINY: These shiny silks offer a dressier and sexier take on the tie-front blouse. Forever 21 Artisan Collar Tie Top ($22.80), Victoria's Secret Silk Charmeuse Top ($58), Newport News Silk Charmeuse Keyhole Blouse ($25) and Victoria's Secret Tie Front Blouse ($68).

FLORALS: Floral prints add an even more feminine touch if that's what you're after. Some of these would be really cute under a suit jacket or cardigan. New York & Company City Style Petal Print Mesh Top ($29.95), Victoria's Secret Tie-Neck Silk Blouse ($48), GO International Tie Front Top ($26.99) and Old Navy Floral Print Bow Tie Top ($24.50)

RANDOM FAVORITES: These are just a couple that I couldn't resist including....Anthropologie Gingham Blouse ($128) and French Connection Hissy Tie Shirt ($69.99).
