Weekly find: The perfect white blouse

Look no further for the perfect white blouse. Called “Viva” by Farinaz Taghavi, the local designer has created a feminine shirt that fits all the requirements in the must-have category: The quality and styling are impeccable; it has classic lines with updated details such as a split-back collar, large cuffs, and antique-style shell buttons; and it’s so versatile that it looks chic with jeans, sporty when paired with a casual A-line skirt, or elegant with tailored pants and your favorite pumps. Farinaz also designs shirts in a variety of fabrics and styles.

Shirt on Your Back

Fashion mags tell us that the blouse is back — SODO-based designer Farinaz Taghavi knows is never went out of style. She’s been making sophisticated and chic renditions of this classic wardrobe staple for the last three years. “Quality matters to me, the fit, the fabric and feeling confident in what you’re wearing,” says Taghavi. Made with fine Italian fabric in hues from classic white to richly colored patterns, the shirts are updated with contemporary treatments to collars, cuffs, buttons and other details.

I am always on a quest for the perfect white shirt. I fell in love with your shirts in a boutique in Jullian, CA. They had only a few and none were my size. The style was button down with two fitted buttoned seams on either side of the front opening. LOVE IT! I made a mental note to find you online. Thanks!
