Summer has only just officially begun, and if temperatures these last few months are any indication, it's going to be a scorcher. However, unlike last summer, it may not be one you are facing in oversized tee shirts and PJ shorts. For something a little more polished and cool — in both senses of the word — we're adding to cart these 14 versatile blouses.
Pilcro The Bella Femme Buttondown ($98)
For a slimmer fit, tie up this puff-sleeved top, or wear it long and loose with a pair of white jeans.
Rolla's Stephanie Little Daisy Blouse ($99)
This print looks like polka dots, but it's actually tiny daisies. Pin your hair up to show off the button-back detail.
Free People Easy Living Top ($88)
This top's artsy detail makes this take on the tropical pattern so refreshing.
Madewell Hilltop Shirt in Kinnon Stripe ($72)
This short-sleeve, airy top is perfect for a picnic or outdoor brunch.
H&M Sleeveless Linen Blouse ($20)
Linen is comfortable and breathable, hence the summer-standby status of this longline, sleeveless button-down.
Kate Spade Daisy Flounce Top ($168)
As the saying goes, everything's coming up roses daisies.
UO Anya Tie-Front Shirt ($44)
We love this abstract floral top with a high-waisted, swingy skirt.
& Other Stories Relaxed Printed Shirt ($89)
As we begin wearing outdoor clothes again, a silky, long, and loose blouse is the move.
Mango Swiss Embroidery Cotton Blouse ($50)
File under things we appreciate on steamy days: tops with openwork details to let in the breeze.
Reformation Elliot Top ($148)
Cinch this polka-dot number as loosely or tightly as you wish, depending on how you're feeling and what you're wearing on the bottom.
Universal Thread Short Sleeve Blouse ($15)
You don't need a lot of detail with a show-stealing color like this punchy pink.
Bl-nk Miranda Peasant Blouse ($128)
Remember peasant blouses? They're back and better than ever, as this flouncy, printed top proves.
Zara Ruffled Blouse ($40)
Dress up a front-ruffle blouse with a pencil skirt, or keep it casual with denim cutoffs.
Topshop Demi Casual Knot Front Button-Up Shirt ($45)
Casual, check. Effortless cool, check. Immediately in heavy rotation in our wardrobe, check.
