Yellow Silk Shirt

Am currently lusting after this silk blouse from Country Road. Yellow has never done me any favours but I am oh so tempted to try it on. Call me a broken record, but a silk shirt is a must-have in any woman's wardrobe.

I'd forgotten how versatile silk shirts are. I own a black one and a cream one, but am keen to source some more in striking colours like my new green one.

On blogs and in online stores I am seeing the versatility of this essential piece. Tucked into shorts, hanging loose with black skinny pants and ballet flats, teamed with a pencil skirt and heels for the office... the options are endless.

I have decided to search for two new silk shirts with a simple rule: no cream or grey!
