You may recall this top from the summer and my trip to Greece. Initially, when I bought it right before I left for the cruise, I was afraid it would be one of those pieces, while pretty, would sit in my closet, gathering dust. I mean, it IS a lot of ruffles, which can be, as the looks I usually get on the subway when wearing it suggest, intimidating. Luckily, it's hands down one of my favorite statement tops and I love finding any and every excuse to wear it. Since Johanna Ortiz is quickly becoming one of my go-to designers of the moment, I've rounded up a bunch of my favorite ruffled statement pieces here, perfect for easy day outfits with jeans and heels or an equally statement skirt (a la Johanna).

I've also included quite a few budget friendly options below as well (some as low as $80)!
