Peek of Patterned Delight

Making a second appearance in Minnesota on Monday, Mrs. O wore a boldly printed tie neck blouse underneath a black cardigan belted at the waist. One blouse proved it could yield quite the transformation, quickly dressing up Mrs. O's earlier look to suit the more formal Minneapolis Club venue. We don't often see Mrs. O choose such bright multi-colored patterns, but tempered by her black cardigan, the peek of fabric added the right amount of punch to the ensemble. To note, this is the second tie neck blouse we've seen Mrs. O wear in two weeks, the last paired with the tweed Thakoon jacket on October 2. More and more, bows seem to be working their way into Mrs. O's looks in one form or another.
