That White Shirt

I'm watching "The Change Up" on TV right now and can't help but notice Olivia Wilde's pretty office outfits---crisp white shirts and pencil skirts, galore! (she made those simple pieces look quite sexy in that movie---but then again, I kinda think she's one of those gals that can make a paper bag look sexy).

Her movie style kind of reminds me of today's outfit---a classic white shirt and navy blazer---but with the feminine touch of a lace skirt.  I can't believe I didn't have a perfect white shirt until recently.  It feels amazing to own a crisp white shirt that fits perfectly and goes with everything---I repeat, everything.  Ladies, if you haven't found your crisp white shirt yet, be on the lookout because I can see this shirt going down in versatility history. In fact, I wore the lilac version of it numerous times during our trip to Toronto.

...and, while I'm here---I'm going to share some upcoming sales from some Houston boutiques:
