RIGHT RUFFLES: For a combination of retro romance and smart dressing, try the Silk Blouse with Pleat Details ($60) at Ann Taylor. The mandarin color and textured cuffs are too pretty to be hid.
PRETTY PEASANT: Sheer fabrics showcase their full-flowing glory when left unfettered by sweaters and such. Slip on the Guess Jennifer Scarf Top ($79) in neutral paisley print and let it speak for itself.
WELL WRAPPED: Bright colors and patterns almost have to be left alone, and happily so. For work, wrap up in the Liz Claiborne Plaid Crossover top with gold side buttons ($40) for a bold top option (also available in crisp white). Find it at Macy's.
CHIC CHIFFON: Even your casual wear can stand a day off from fussy coordination. The Elizabeth and James Chiffon Overlay top ($195) at Bloomingdale's looks great all by itself.
