It's the rare New Yorker who doesn't show her hippie side in warmer weather -- after all, buttoned-up fare doesn't really cut it for cutting loose on sunny weekends. But this spring, floaty peasant tops and ethnic blouses aren't just for the beach -- our favorites will take you just aboutanywhere.
French Connection's delicate floral top ($78 at Bloomingdale's) has a sweet country feel to it -- dress it down with jeans or up with a skirt. We also love H&M's ($9) long-sleeved beige style.
For a more exotic look, try Bebe's casual, mirror-decorated blouse ($39) or Phelgye's cheery lavender version ($48 at Bloomingdale's). DKNY Jeans' groovy embroidered number ($79 at Bloomingdale's)is great with faded low-risers for spring shopping excursions -- and over your bikini when things really heat up.
