A little bit of swing, a little bit of lace, and a whole lot of charm! The lace pattern of this design grows with every repeat before rippling into the lower body; it reminds me of waves that gather momentum and then fade as they move toward the shore. I love the tailored fit in the neck and shoulders, with the comfortable, relaxed ease at the bust and lower body. It’s a flattering, easy style that feels perfect for a sunny day.
