If you’re not sure how to style an off-the-shoulder neckline, you’re in the right place. Girl! No one ever saw a top like this coming. Did you? Have you seen it coming? Then, you're a psychic (Hahaha). And a really good one, I tell you. Well, obviously, it's not for or in this season. That we should be flaunting our collar bones. Because of the hmmm... cold weather, perhaps? But who are they to stop us from wearing what our heart says. Might as well, give them a cold-shoulder eyy (*wink-wink*)? It's an elegant way to show a little skin. Therefore, don't be afraid to show off those astounding clavicle and shoulders with an "Off The Shoulder" top. I know you agree on me when I say that this top screams confidence and sexiness, right? Well, actually.. there are lots of versions of this kind of clothing piece. There are thin strips, one-shoulder, cutout, asymmetrical, and strappy counterparts out there that seems to rapidly expand in the fashion industry. Off the shoulder tops are not only a summer staple. You'll be flabbergasted by how much you can wear this top with.
I love the little tie detail on the sleeves. It's simple, yet a well-designed piece. Do you picture this top on you while you're riding a bike at the streets of Paris? Or just by having a glass of wine at the L’AFFABLE (Rue de Saint Simon, Paris)? Because, why not?
Style Tips 101:
DO's
Pair this look with gladiator sandals for an authentic style with a cool bohemian and hippie vibe.
Keep your skin glowing. Don't forget your moisturizers. As your shoulders will be the centre stage and you want to create a beautiful glowing effect. A diminutive illuminator on collarbones and shoulders for an evening event is also welcomed.
You can perfectly bring your Off The Shoulder top to the office. Worry not, because to adapt this trend to a more corporate kind of outfit, wear it in such a professional way by incorporating it with a pencil skirt or an elegant trousers. Then, don’t forget about those knock-out high heels and a professional makeup. And you're good to go.
You can also wear an off-the-shoulder with any A-line skirts. Like mine. This combo is basically outrageous and looks slightly vintage. So cute, RIGHT? This brings out the "preppy-ness" in you, ladies! I paired mine with a printed A-line midi skirt. Then finishing it off with a WEDGE sandals. Is it in cute or what? Share your thoughts below. Alright?
Actually, you can wear any kind or color of jeans with this sort of top. May it be a flared, high- waisted, printed, textured, wide-legged, skinny or better yet like my distressed boyfriend jeans. It is an all-around top, that you can wear with almost anything.
DON'Ts
Opt for a clutch on this trend. Or a satchel handbag. Because you might wholly ruin the line the top is creating.
Don't cover your shoulders with your hair. Remember! Your aim here is to expose your SHOULDERS. Make sure to pull it up or go for that messy bun. If you have a long hair, try those beach waves.
You don't want to get called out by your HR for that inappropriate office attire right? Though you may be covered up in the SCIENTIFIC sense, it just reads as too naked for a work environment.
I'm really having a hard time on thinking of ways not to incorporate or combine with this top. Because to be honest, the versatility of it is just too much.
What accessories can we possibly pull off with this staple top? Hmmm. CHOKERS! Ofcourse. Take note that chokers are also back. And we're not mad about it. A cold shoulder can be challenging to accessorize. However, when "Chokers" and "Off The Shoulder Tops" are combined, it's going to be a massive outcome. Remember to make a fun statement that shows off your unique style.
Be able to ruffled this look because it's wonderful for daytime casual. However, I can also pull off a super steamy look that is perfect for my date night.
I wore this fit today, while strolling around the suburbs. From day till night time, I was able to survive the hustle and bustle of the city; despite my very clean and radiant white top (*kuddos to my super pag taboy to the dirt around me*).
While the second fit, T'was just an outfit change. For me to be able to show you, on how I can possibly wear 2 different styles of these tops.
