I have read so many blog posts from bloggers who attended New York fashion week and came back saying that "Off The Shoulder" styles are out. Yet, I still see them in stores and Stitch Fix just sent me this top. I think often when Pantone comes out with a new "Color of the Year" or something premiere's at a fashion show, it isn't until a full year later (or longer in my neck of the woods) that you see it in stores. So I'm guessing we still have one more year to enjoy our off-the-shoulder styles ladies! And that's good news, as I only wore once a couple of mine that I purchased last year .
There were many things I liked about this top, first, I thought it was super flattering. It had a nice length, and it covered everything I generally like to hide. I also liked how comfortable it was. It is made of a super soft knit and it felt so good against my skin.
I also really liked these fun tie sleeves. Anything with little ties is super trendy right now: shirts that tie at the waist, neckties (like little kerchiefs), and sleeve ties are everywhere this spring.
Because the print is so busy, I just wore a silver bracelet for jewelry.
I liked the top, but I wasn't thrilled with the pattern and I was also concerned how much wear I would get out of it knowing that off-the-shoulder tops are on their way out. I also already own three off-the-shoulders tops. But, you will have to wait until Friday to find out if I kept this top or returned it. I know, I'm so bad!

While I love the idea of the OTS tops (and I have a few), I still struggle with my strapless bra. But this scarf print is so pretty, Amy

Yea, I'm not a fan of strapless bras either but I find I have to wear them with a lot of tops so what difference does it make with OTS? Even most tank tops require a strapless bra if you don't want your bra straps constantly popping out and showing.
DeleteI actually LOVE the print and colors of this shirt. Off the shoulder is not for me though, I never feel comfortable wearing them. But it looks really cute on you and love those ties!
ReplyDeleteThanks Ellie! I must admit I'm not comfortable wearing them either, even though I own 3! There's something about showing your shoulders that's very sexy, and it's so funny, because they're just shoulders! ha ha!
DeleteThe print is so much fun on this OTS top. I love the colors and how it's a bit boho!

Thanks Ruth! Yes, now that you said that, it is very boho. I probably should have tried it with my flares instead of white skinnies.
DeleteWhen I was a young girl, my mom taught me to look to see if stripes lined up, patterns lined up on pieces of clothing with a print. I like that the print on this darling top seems perfectly centered. Something I bought had the print just slightly askew and I was always trying to adjust. Made me nuts.
ReplyDeleteI have several cold shoulder/off the shoulder tops that I haven't worn enough, too. Hope they don't disappear entirely. If you guys are a year behind the styles, we are a decade behind here in El Paso. I can probably wear my cold shoulders until I am 70!!
That’s great your mom taught you that, I had to learn that from another blogger who pointed out a flaw in a vest. I was so happy she did as I didn’t keep the vest!
DeleteI just saw another blogger sporting an OTS top, so hopefully they’re not disappearing too fast and we’ll get more wear out of ours.
Oh, love this top on you! the style is lovely and I do love the print.Love the pattern with the white jeans it looks great together. I need to shop for some summer/spring tops!
