What I am Wearing - Styling Off the Shoulder

If you are keeping up with the latest fashion trends, you will know that off-the-shoulder tops are all over the place for Spring. Wearing an off-the-shoulder top does not have to be intimidating if you keep the rest of your outfit modest.

While off-the-shoulder looks may not be appropriate for work, unless you wear a jacket over it, it is perfect for any other occasion! The off-the-shoulder top can be paired with a skirt for a dressier look or with jeans for a casual vibe. Today I am sharing two ways to style OTS tops, one look with a tunic and the other with a crop top.

For a date night with the hubby, pair a high waisted skirt with a beautiful, rust colored cropped OTS top and peep toe pumps. I was not sure if I could pull off the crop top, but it works with a bottom that covers my stomach. I love the wide, flutter sleeves and tie detail, because it helps disguise heavier upper arms.

For lunch with the girls or a day of shopping I would pair an OTS chambray tunic with white skinny jeans and canvas wedges. The 3/4 length sleeves are perfect for Spring and the tie detail makes it a little more feminine. I have to be real with you, the website stated that this was a dress, but since I am 5'9, it was too short for me. (#tallgirlproblems) I think it would be adorable on someone who is shorter, paired with lace up gladiator style sandals.

      Thanks Jill! I really like the rust color too and was surprised that I could pull off the crop top!
