Beautiful Blouses for the Spring and Summer

Beautiful blouses can transform many well-loved basic pieces and can make you feel fashion-forward without having to revamp your wardrobe.
Blouses

One of the best ways to add freshness to a spring and summer wardrobe is to add a trendy new blouse or two. Beautiful blouses can transform many well-loved, essential pieces and make you feel fashion-forward without requiring a complete wardrobe overhaul. That, of course, is right in keeping with our growing awareness that “less is more” and more isn’t always better.

But take note! These are not tees or pullover-type tops. When we describe a blouse, we mean a garment in which the textile has more substance. In general, blouses are more stylish and polished, making them an excellent addition to enhance a wardrobe.

There are a few new trends that are fun, pretty, and playful, and can work for many different style types. This year is a no-limits year, and designers are taking a no-holds-barred approach to design. Fashionistas are having fun and playing with various looks, so follow their lead and don’t be afraid to take a fashion risk or two. If you feel good, it shows, so have some fun with your wardrobe!

Babydoll Tops

Disclosure: This post contains affiliate links.

Babydoll tops might sound like something only a younger gal might wear, but we find the loose and flowing fit works great for mature women as well. This design comes in a wide range of solids and patterns, but we tend to lean more toward a top that’s not too busy in this fit. Pair this with some jeans and a cute pair of cowboy boots or some capris with your favorite wedge sandals. You’ll feel comfortably stylish all day.

Eyelet Shirts

When we think of trendy tops, shirts with an eyelet design are often the first that come to mind. The style is fun and playful, but it works surprisingly well for both casual and formal occasions.

2025 is the year of color, and spring and summer blouses are no exception. We’re loving the gorgeous coral and turquoise options, as well as the fun and flattering patterns available.

 Linen Tops

We love linen in pretty much every clothing style, but to be honest, it’s hard to beat a beautiful tunic top. They’re soft and flowing and look great on pretty much any build. We also love the square-neck look we found, as well as the variety of colors and styles that are available.
