Ruffle Me This, Ruffle Me That…

Lately, I am totally obsessed by ruffles. High-necked ruffled dresses, ruffle-front shirts, you name it, I love it. I especially like the combination of ruffles with printed fabrics. Bonus points for florals. Here are some ruffled bits of fabric that might make you go a little ga-ga, too.

I am completely in lust with this Moon River Dress. It has a totally nutso boho print, and scads of ruffles for me to fall in love with. The shape of this dress is perfect for us pear types. All that ruffleage up will balance out an ample bottom half. The only thing I don’t love about this dress is the material: 100% polyester. If it were cotton, it would be perfect, but it would probably also be more than $59.99. Available from ModCloth.

Holy retro-ruffle goddess! Can you get any better than this icy pink polka dot confection by Miss Brache? Seriously, my tooth hurts just lookin’ at it. I love how the ruffles here are strategically placed right plum over your derriere. Way to make use of your best asset. Available for $118 by Miss Brache.

Nothing could be finer than this cool blue-green Crystal Sugar Doll dress. The demure collar and delicate chiffon make for a swoonworthy combination, and those petite little ruffles take it right over the edge of sweet. Plus, the shiny satin bow belt adds a little extra sass. Available for $48 from Red Dress Shoppe.

In case you’re not ready to dive into ruffles like I am, you might start with a sweet ruffled blouse. The high neck on this Queen Collared Button Up is amazing, and the patchwork print combination is subtle and sophisticated. You could pair this as you see it with a pencil skirt, but I’d love it with some high waisted short shorts for summer. Available for $118 from Smashing Darling.
