A Good Silk Blouse

End-of-season sale time is a great time to grab some quality basics for your wardrobe. Today I’m thinking specifically of silk blouses.

A good silk blouse usually lasts me about five years, a very long time in my typical, “wear it three times a week for six months and then toss,” fashion rotation. And really, there’s no better fabric to wear year-round.
