3 Must Have Statement Tops

Do you remember watching old movies and you would see people in traditional boxy button-down shirts that didn’t have much shape to them? This is probably what most of us grew up thinking we had to wear to work; I'm here to tell you that's not your only option. Right now, statement tops are such a great way to dress up your work pants, skirts, or jeans. I don't know about you but I'm in my 30’s and right now if I can't wear it to work, brunch, or on this blog then I don't want it. I'm truly trying to maximize my wardrobe and wear pieces as many times as I can.

 

Now, let's get into the fashion. Below are 3 trends that can help elevate your work, brunch, or night out look with just a simple change in tops.

1. All About the Sleeves

Over sized looks are taking over fashion right now so it’s no surprise that we are starting to see it in more of our traditional spaces. Balloon sleeves are part of this trend and I am so here for it. I love a simple button down but adding in these over sized balloon sleeves can take a very basic outfit and dress it up.

2. Collar and a Bow and you're good to

We all need a little drama in our lives so why not add it to our clothes? Collared button shirts are a staple most people have in their wardrobe, but I have been loving the brands that are able to take these tops and add a little something extra to them. Whether it’s a cute print, or adding a bow or tie along the neckline, these tops can really chic up an outfit and make you feel like you're Emily in Paris.

3. A little Shoulder Action

Who said shoulders are meant to be covered? One shoulder and off the shoulder tops are a must especially if you are not a "Cleveland" kind of girl. They provide a sexy but sophisticated look that is hard to say no to. Add these tops with jeans and you are ready for a brunch date or a date night.
