Like many people, I find myself buying slightly different versions of the exact same things over and over again. Cashmere cardigans and ballet flats fall into this camp for me; I've got loads of each, distinguished by colors and materials that run the gamut. I have a similar penchant for tops with dramatic collars (the bigger the better!) and white blouses, and it's an especially happy occurrence when the two merge in one garment, as is the case with this Alexander Wang piece. It has the most beautiful, elaborately accordion-pleated ruffle that goes all the way around the neckline, and it's made of delicate, creamy silk. The sleeves balloon ever so slightly with a little more pleating at each cuff, and the sum of all this is you end up looking a wee bit like a modern-day Mozart, in the most chic and romantic way possible. I would undo the top couple buttons to add some sex appeal, and, as you can probably guess, add some flats and a cardigan too.
