This blouse from Cinq à Sept is one of the prettiest fall florals I’ve seen in some time. While I would usually include sheer or semi-sheer blouses as an absolute “don’t” for the office, I think the cut and style of this one could work with a black cami, especially if you’re layering it under a blazer. (I would advise against doing something that’s nude-for-you, just to avoid looking like you are, in fact, nude underneath!)
What say you, readers? Would this fly in your office?
The blouse is $365 at Bloomingdale’s and comes in sizes XXS-XL.

Does anyone know if Tuckerneck runs big/small? I’m looking at their size chart for shirts and for example it says a size XXS bust is 40 inches, while on the Banana Republic Size chart that would be a size L. Maybe I’m reading something wrong here.
Okay it looks like it differs depending on the item you’re looking at. Why am I still right between 2 sizes smh
