The ’70s bell sleeve trend is yet again making a comeback this spring with bell sleeves and flare jeans. The statement sleeves seem to be everywhere but I’m not complaining at all. You know I am a sucker for feminine details.

What’s delightful about this trend is that it’s head-turning but totally wearable and fresh.

Moreover, If you love some drama in your outfit, bell sleeves are the ideal way to do it.

Okay, guys! here is the deal with the blouse, it’s a blend of polyester and SPANDEX (now I hear some cheers :)), which gives some stretch to the blouse. The material is soft and hugs skin nicely without looking odd. The 3 tier ruffle bell sleeves are, of course, the highlight of the blouse, they are so fun to play with.  Overall, the blouse fits true to size and it’s very light on budget ($25)

    Wow those bell sleeves are so nice, I always tend to wear a cardigan though so you wouldn’t see them on me x

    I love the 70’s and anything vintage for that matter. Bell sleeves can be very flattering and dramatic. I have a few from the 70’s .

    I have to admit that this is a very interesting and intriguing outfit. It makes me think of the Spanish flamenco dancers, especially with that dark red color.
