Bouffant, cheerful, summer-ish and makes one heck of a statement. Yes, puffed blouses are the new it-blouse and we would all be remiss to ignore the rising trend!

A puffed blouse goes far beyond the run-of-the-mill eighties-inspired shirts, as they’re now the perfect combination of minimalism and opulence, hence drawing all the (wanted) attention to you – and only you. Whether you’re just going to work, have a big business meeting, a lunch date or a sassy outing, the puffed blouse will surely make you look like a modern-day princess. This season, invest in an item that is both functional and aesthetical, and sway your way through spring with flair and sass. The trick here is to indulge in the fury of colors, from pastels to fiery hues and more discrete ones.

After all, is there anything more divine than a good throw-on blouse? Sift through the Photo Gallery below to have your pick!
