When you think of ruffles, odds are you'll picture yourself at age seven wearing a frilly skirt on the way to your best friend's birthday party. The historically childlike detail has been updated during the last few seasons, giving fashion enthusiasts the availability to revisit the style in a modern way. Making the ruffle the focal point of your outfit is a sure way to pull off the flounce. And when you do, make sure it's dramatic and structured. Fashion blogger Sara Donaldson of Harper and Harley keeps her ruffles grounded with her minimalist take. She pairs her ruffled top with cropped trousers, black Jimmy Choo pumps and a black clutch, showing us that this trend doesn't have to be overly feminine to work.
