Happy Friday! It's time for my weekly "Fashion Over Forty" post, thanks so much for visiting! For today's post I'm styling another one of my favorite sweater purchases from last fall, a balloon sleeve ruffle neck top. Or is it a blouson sleeve? I've seen them sometimes referred to blouson sleeves and have no idea if that's actually a different style...they look similar to me, so I am just calling these balloon sleeves. If anyone knows the difference, please let me know!

If you have been following any fashion blogs or read any fashion related magazines then you might know that balloon sleeves have been trending for a couple of years now. While I am usually one of the last to jump on a trend bandwagon, I absolutely fell in love with this sweater last year and had to have it. And I am sure it'll stay in my closet long after the balloon sleeve trend is gone.

I've heard those words used interchangeably for the statement sleeves - I just call them statement sleeves, haha! they look good on you, it's a really cute knit, and layering with the vest was a good idea! :)
