How fun is this top? The colors (grenadine-pictured, saffron, and olive) and the ruffles are totally delightful. Perfect with white jeans for date night or under a jacket for meetings.

Ruffle Front Top

CeCe Ruffle Sweater
I know its a kinda sweet looking, but I really like this ruffled sweater. I really like the length of the sleeves and did I mention the ruffle. Now you could definitely argue that you can get a similarly-styled sweater from the new Target line for less than $58.00, but I would argue that the light yellow and pink are more spring-like color options.

Ralph Lauren Illusion
You aren't going to believe me, but this isn't three separate pieces. I was cruising the Nordstrom site and saw this and figured the ruffled top was just paired with the patent leather belt and pencil skirt so that folks wouldn't just buy once piece. Right? I was totally wrong. It's a dress. And its only $168. I can't tell if I really like it because it surprised me or because its so chic. Maybe both?

Cotton Crochet Dress
If fatigues were feminine and fashionable, this is how I imagine that they would look, minus the fact that a skirt really isn't the most practical attire for bootcamp. Asos offers this dress in black, coral, and a green as well as this army-like beige. The sweetheart neckline and bell sleeves really lend this dress to being rather delicate looking. I love the juxtapostition of it all.
Ruffle Trim Bubble Top
Sick of ruffles yet? Me neither! This top is really lovely. I definitely think I would need to add the belt like the model here has, to reduce some of the volume in the mid-section area, but I love the grey color and the ruffle trim and capped puff sleeves are sweet.
Ruffled White Shirts
I have a ton of traditional white button-down shirts that I use constantly in varied ways. They work well for work and they work hard for a gal on the weekends with jeans and mini skirts. So I am not surprised that I really like the fact that designers decided to add ruffles to the staple for the spring. I particularly like this version at Victoria's Secret with a pencil skirt for the office and skinny jeans and flats for the weekend.
