When Does the Bow Get Too Big?

I’m not entirely sure if anyone else has noticed, but in these past few months, bows and the likes has been immensely popular in women’s clothing. This is a trend I largely appreciate. Why? Because blouses doing these bow things are sexy, classy, cute, mature but at the very same time “hint” cute which men seem to love. (I’ve no idea what’s with them but guys just want everything!).

What’s better, is that they are appropriate for every most occasion. It’s super cool if you’re catching up with your GFs over coffee, but also suitable if you’re those people who work (or a student on work exchange or something) at those uptight, bitchy offices where every one dresses as if they’ve just come out of, I don’t know, court.

However, there are limitations. As with most trends, it gets to a point where it gets done over too badly. That’s when the phrase OTT comes in. Yes.

So when does the good bow goes bad? How big is too big? Well, never really, as I’ve seen huge bows on blouses but still look very hot! What does irritate me is when women walk around with ginormous bows utop their neck, which makes the bow look like some sort of uncontrolled, wild flower overpowering and swallowing you up. So with that, if you must do a terabyte sized bow, be careful and to play safe - it’s best to allow the bow to start where your cleavage (or “bumps” if you’ve never quite gotten there) begins.

The good girl office shirt that’s sure to make ‘em green with envy! This is THE thing every woman should own.
