Tie Neck T-Shirt

The pussy bow collar bordered with white lines on this midnight-blue long-sleeved blouse gives the piece all the elegance of a well-placed detail. Its long sections can be expertly tied or nonchalantly left undone, while a decorative pearl button sits at the neck. This quality piece can be tucked into high-waisted boyish trousers to make the most of the contrast.
