Top with neckline and wrist bands embellished with a bow. I made two versions. It is fairly simple to sew, with the only things to watch out for is the directions for binding the neckline and ends of the sleeves and for the lengths of the bindings.
First version in a lightweight polyester jacquard with slight pinstripes and a striped cotton woven for the bands. Second version in a teal polyester faille and a black knit for the bands.
