Insights on Literature, etiquette, and Beauty from a Catholic wife and mom

There is something so endearing about the latest frill and ruffle trend. There is a harmonious dichotomy between the sophisticated edge and the youthful charm that frills and ruffles offer that I find incredibly beautiful. I have always gravitated towards ruffles when shopping, and I am thrilled that these beautiful details are making a comeback!

The pieces that I chose for my Feminine Favorites are truly timeless. These items range from showcasing the frills as the focal point, like the gorgeous Zimmermann dress, or as a small detail, as seen in the ruffled waist and pockets of the cropped chambray pant. However you decide to wear them, frills and ruffles are a staple for your Spring wardrobe!
