Shame on me for taking a few tiresome days off from blogging! However, I’m back now with some fierce style to talk about!  I’ve had this image of Jessica Biel saved in my favorites for a while now & I just love it!

During a stroll in Toronto, the actress is wearing a feminine bow-front long-sleeved blouse with Paige Denim jeans, peep toe flats, round tortoise sunglasses, & a studded tote bag.  Any Style Darling can pull off this look b/c it’s just so classic & effortless.  Everyone should have a go-to blouse to begin with & it’s always polished & day-ready when paired with dark denim jeans!

Staying true to my promise of featuring both women’s & plus-size style, I’ve first selected these skinny mini-flare jeans from Old Navy ($29.00) that are currently marked down from $36.94 & range in sizes 0 – 20.  To go with the jeans, you can find the bow neck blouse in parchmen by a.n.a. from JC Penney ($24.99), which is also currently on sale, originally marked $38.00.  For my fuller-figured Darlings, the tie ruffle blouse ($38.00) is available in sizes 14 – 32 @Avenue.  If you think the white looks too matronly, there is also a black option of the blouse available too!

As for the three most important finishing touches, I’m so happy to have found these classic round tortoise sunglasses ($5.80) from Forever 21.  They’ll never go out of style & can protect your eyes in wearing a maxi dress with a crochet vest, or even in a cocktail ready sheath dress.  At the same retailer, you can find the strappy leatherette handbag in dark brown ($29.80), which can be adjusted multiple ways to serve whatever function you need it to! Lastly, the ‘Coreil’ flower embellished peep toe flats ($39.98) are from ALDO, marked down from $50.00.  There, you can also find cute fall-ready flats on clearance for as low as $11.98!

Check out my previous Darling of the Day posts featuring Lea Michele, Miranda Kerr, & Kerry Washington! Would you wear a bow-bedecked blouse like this?  Where do you shop for jeans?  Are you dying over the return of mega-flared jeans?  Happy Styling!
