    If you think the pussy bow blouse is just for the prim and proper, think again. Here's our edit of the best styles to shop right now...

    The pussy bow blouse is having a moment, from those sassy street style stars to those ultra-chic super models strutting down the catwalks - everyone is wearing one.

    Not just for girly girls, the pussy bow blouse is more versatile than you might initially think, and there are so many ways to wear one.

    You really can't go wrong with this update on the classic blouse and with the high street fully on board, this trend looks set to live on long into the new season ahead.

    There are numerous styles on offer, for every sartorial preference, in a wide range of colours, prints and shapes. For a fun print, check out the Karl Lagerfeld's pussy bow blouse, or for a more minimal approach, the Mango option is the way to go.

    If you don't like anything too fussy, opt for a style with a smaller bow like the burgundy number from New Look, and style up with tailored trousers and flats.

    This is also a great piece for layering (well worth thinking about during the unpredictable Spring weather we have coming up), and can be worn any which way, to work, and on the weekend. We like the combo of teaming a short sleeved cashmere sweater with your pussy bow detail draped out the front and a flash of sleeve peeking out. Winning. Or why not wear under a shift sleeveless dress and pair with ankle boots or a knitted vest top for casual 70's look.

    If you're style is more edgy then go with leather trousers or black skinny jeans and killer heels for a night out. Keep the pussy bow undone for a cool-girl edge.

    Head to Warehouse and Diane Von Furstenberg for a great printed options, or Frame for classic, low-key silk options.

    If you're looking to splash some cash, the Gucci version is well worth a look. Make a statement with the contrasting colour with denim for day or dress it up for the upcoming summer weddings with a metallic pleated skirt as seen on the runway and sky high mules.
