Minty Ruffle Blouse


Monday June 27, 2011   

So happy. Yesstyle order arrived this past week.  It’s an order of 3 blouses :deco2: and a few other things. I am so in love with the mint green blouse! The front ruffles flutter like waves. :deco2: I love blouses. I can wear them to work but more casually too.  Recently I appreciate simple things with a twist. :ok: Like the “WAVEFRILL” mint blouse with its ruffles and wide shape. :deco15:

Unfortunately the mint color is now sold out but looks like pink is still in stock. With the below black blouse I had a really hard time choosing color! All the colors were great including pink, ivory, and mint! But I went with black because I only have 1 other black blouse. This one with the cut-outs. But this new blouse I can wear to work. XD

The white blouse (direct link) is a dolmen cap sleeve-like style with a V neck and double pockets. The black blouse (direct link) is a mandarin collar with slightly wider, volume 3/4 sleeves. It’s length is also longer than typical blouses and runs longer in the back. Simple, basic, but still special and different. :deco14:  

So as for this past weekend. I was mostly sick. :ng: I woke up Saturday with a mild flu. But I went to see Conan O’Brien Can’t Stop anyway!! It’s a small documentary of Conan’s Legally Prohibited from Being Funny on Television tour. If you saw the tour you’ll love this movie! :deco10: And even if you didn’t, but you love Conan and find yourself relating to his self-deprecating often snarky humor… you’ll love it too! ::9: I could have easy watched the uncut and raw footage of these behind the scenes for more than 30 hours, I don’t care! :deco3: :deco3: Ok, ok  :P :lol:

Then afterward we stopped by the BBQ Battle and got our picture in front of the infamous Oscar Mayer Wienermobile plus wienermobile whistles!! :P I’ve never seem the Wienermobile on the road. Sightings are a bit rare, right! :deco8: I’ve always wanted to see it. 

So yeah :drops: the rest of Saturday and Sunday I was lying on the floor pretty much dying and marathon-ing Psych. :deco13: Though I went to work today. :ok: An Advil got me through the day and I’m starting to feel better’ish. :deco10::deco13:

    I totally saw him on tour, but the closest showing for this is 1.5 hours away :T it might be worth it, but I do hate spending money on gas… haha.

    • jenny says:

      Ugh I know. It’s SUCH a limited release! Like 20 theaters only x(. That’s why I really wanted to see it while I could. It could stop showing at anytime, so limited x(

  2. Firipa says:

    lovely blouses!
    sad to hear you got sick, please get well soon, take care!

  3. That second photo of you is really cool. You look good, but the composition of the photo is just so eye catching and makes you look… I don’t know how to say it… but it’s just a really awesome photo. Looks like something from a magazine. LOVE the shirt though, kinda reminds me of my pink one. I love the color!

    • jenny says:

      Oh you have a pink one like this sorta?? I love how feminine it feels but without overstating it with florals or bows you know!

      I’m glad to know even with just my IPhone the photos aren’t a complete waste xDD. I only ever use my phone anymore since I can play with the colors easily to pass time while commuting xD

  4. Rubi says:

    I love all the clothes you buy, they always suit you so well!! And i’m glad you still went to see that show, even though you weren’t feeling so good~ missing it wouldn’t have made you feel any better! :D

  5. M says:

    that green one is super cute

  6. Sara Mari says:

    The blouses are very nice! Its been fun to watch your style evolve over the past year. And yay for the weinermobile, yeah, I have never seen one haha

  7. Honeydew says:

    Ahhh, I bought some stuff from YesStyle a few weeks ago and only received one package in the mail so far. I’m currently still waiting for my other package to come but the postal office here in Toronto, Canada is currently on strike!! ;_; I don’t even know WHEN I’ll get that package and it’s actually a pair of sandals that I ordered that I’m kind of looking forward to wear. Boooo postal strike sucks~

    • jenny says:

      Oh god I’ve READ ABOUT THAT! What’s up with that???!! That’s basically a giant nightmare for an online shopping addict like myself.

      • Honeydew says:

        I don’t really know since there isn’t really any news about it. I guess they put the package on hold until the strike is over? The package has already been shipped out from YesStyle last week though. Ugh, I just want my package already!

  8. Mika says:

    Those blouses are super cute! waaah, I’ve never seen Wienermobile. I didn’t think it actually existed hahah but that’s so cool! Glad you’re starting to feel better~

  9. Tiffany says:

    I love the blouse!
    The colour is super cute~

  10. Oh I love the blouses! I don’t know why, but I can never pull of mandarin collars. Maybe I’ll have to give it another shot. I’m glad that you’re feeling a bit better! ^_^

    • jenny says:

      Maybe just haven’t found the right one. I’m a bit weary of them too, but mostly it’s probably personal pref. Like I almost 100% of the time think I look crap in V necks.

  11. Veronica says:

    I was looking at that same one a few weeks ago!

    Haha oh I wish I were an oscar meyer weeeiinnnner, that is what I’d truly like to beeeee

    • jenny says:

      The Oscar Mayer people would say the WEIRDEST thing when taking your photo like, instead of cheese they’d say, “say hot dog chili!”

  12. HelloEnaam says:

    Glad to hear you’re feeling a little better!

    I love that mandarin blouse in pink~~ ♥ so cute! Yesstyle is awesome+horrible at the same time. So many cute clothes, but it makes me want to buy everything ;A; my grad student wallet does not approve D:

    • jenny says:

      Haahaa I agree. There’s so much to choose from with all the available shops there. Yea I really like the other colors of that mandarin collar blouse especial the pink!

  13. Linda says:

    i love your blouses! :)
    & YAY for Wienermobile pictures!!!!

  14. Chanel says:

    Your blouse is lovely ! ^^
    You saw the Oscar Mayer Wienermobile ? That’s so cool ! haha

    -Chanel

  15. Amazing blouse!

    So beautiful!

    xoxo

  16. Thuy An says:

    Your mint blouse is so lovely * ^ *
    Aw, I hope you’ll feel even better soon!!

  17. lissy says:

    love that blouse, its really flow-y
    and the mint colour is perfect :D

  18. Alisa says:

    The blouses look so nice. I cannot wear something like that, it looks horrible on me T_T

    Take care, Jenny!

  19. jilliancat says:

    I love your white sheer blouse to the max! :O It’s so perfect and it’s been the one I’ve been hunting for sooooo long! ;__; Yesstyle is kinda expensive for me. T.T

    • jenny says:

      Yes, yes, yes! I’ve wanted something like it for a while now too! I was SO happy with it. It’s a look that is everywhere yet hard to find, why!? It should be easier :(

  20. Thanh Thao says:

    Ohhh, I like blouses as well, they are easy to combine and specially in summer airy blouses are just perfect ;)

    Now I wanna order from Yesstyle, too *___*

    • jenny says:

      Agreed. I love them because I can work them into work, they have a sense of maturity, but can also be playful. Can be casual or dressy all in 1 top!

  21. Tiff says:

    OH my God a WIENERMOBILE lol! It’s… so phallic… I know it’s obvious because it’s a sausage but… wow XD.

    I absolutely love blouses but somehow all the blouses in my wardrobe have been inching ever closer to button-up shirt territory because I prefer cotton. Blouses are usually in some stupid polyester fabric which gives it its lovely soft look but not good for uh, ahem, girls who sweat a lot in summer XD.

    Also I haven’t been commenting much because of exams, but I just wanted to say thanks for a swatch of the Jade nail polish in your previous posts! I remember asking for it and trust me, your nails are so much prettier than mine because they’re actually intact and existent! Mine are just… split and peeling and absolutely disgusting. The green is soo nice, which just makes me feel bad because I can’t wear it T_T.

    • Samantha says:

      Get a nail treatment, hon! I use this “Total Nail Care 5 in 1 treatment” thing by some Nutra Nail brand. It goes on as a polish and I use it on my toes because I’m a runner and thus, sort of rough on my feet sometimes. I like to use it as a base coat or sometimes to give my toesies time to “breath” I just wear it as a clear shiny nail polish. It’s helped with chipping/peeling nails a lot. :)

    • jenny says:

      I understand where you’re coming from. I used to only buy cotton blouses too b/c anything else would make me so sweaty! But I haven’t had that problem since moving out of the south so now I prefer polyester/silk/chiffon blouses and only wear cotton button ups to work.

      Glad you could see the Jade Jump color! I have to use this nail strengthener stuff from OPI as a base coat or my nails peel at the tips, yikes!

  22. Einna says:

    The mint blouse drapes perfectly! I was at one time really obsessed with mint coloured things, but recently my favourite colour is lavender. *__*
    Speaking of blouses, I was looking at Snidel’s new A/W items (the seasons go by so fast!! T_T) today, and I thought this was the most beautiful blouse I’ve ever seen:

    I’m not too sure if you’d like it, but I wanted to share. =P I really want it, but it’s a little pricey…

    Hope you’re getting better!!

    • jenny says:

      Ahhhhhhh I haven’t seen any of these new releases!! Gah these past few years I’m so loving Snidel :OOO

      Ugh that blouse is SO something I’d buy! SO $$$ of course ;___; especially if buying overseas *cries*

      God this coat is gorgeous too!

      http://www.magaseek.com/user/ItemDetail/detail?svid=pc02&prd=000660808&color=233&size=003&index=1&sal=9&back_flg=true

      ok I think I’m gonna blog all of these! LOL So much inspo

      • Einna says:

        Yes!! I was looking at that coat also! I can’t wait to see more fall stuff. For now I wonder if I should take advantage of the summer sales… I get so sad to think that the bargains get ruined by overseas shipping fees though. T^T

        Hahah I’m glad I could give something to blog about.

        • jenny says:

          Bargains definitely do get sorta ruined by overseas shipping but on the other hand if you KNOW you’re buying it at least you get a small discount! Once I bought a bunch of stuff and a few days later it all went on 50% sale!!!!!!!!! I could have criedddddddddd! All the service fees & double shipping could have been covered by the 50% off saved money. Oh well ;___;

  23. My Linh says:

    OMG! I love the mint green blouse, too… Too bad it is sold out… :( I wish I had the money for more shopping… ;) Nice finds as always!

  24. Alyse says:

    i love conan! he was the best thing late night ever had. there’s still daily show, but that’s only 30 minutes.. lol

    • jenny says:

      I really miss Conan being on NBC but his show “Conan” on TBS is pretty classic Conan too :)

  25. Miya says:

    There is definitely something going around the east coast right now…. because a lot of people in NYC are getting sick right now too, including myself. Fuck. The black blouse is my favorite, but I want to see it on you!

    • jenny says:

      Nuuuuuuuuu don’t say that! FLU ZONE FTL lol

      I’ve been wearing the black one with work outfits a la boring but I’ll try to post it soon in a coordinate :)

  26. Bianca says:

  27. cin says:

  30. Courtney says:

    These are beautiful! I love the subtle flair. I actually got a desk job (just haven’t blogged about it yet –;;) and so I’d like a few things like this to wear to work! :)
