Summer's Hottest Trend :: Off Shoulder Top with Flare Sleeves

Hello, hello, hello!

What a week! Been so busy at work and working on collaborations for my blog that I hardly had the chance to put together an outfit post for a while. Before I begin, let me remind you that the last two series of COACH giveaways is still ongoing so log in your entries now. Just head over to my link on the navigation bar on " Current Giveaways" or click here to view.


Loving the off shoulder look which is Summer's hottest trend! Ideally so, when the weather is so HOT that bare shoulders does help to keep us slightly cool. Plus given now that I have cut my hair short for summer, it is such a nice feeling to go out in the heat feeling the breeze on my shoulders and neck. This beautiful Rosie Assoulin inspired top thrilled me when I received it in the mail.


Wanted to style this as a casual top, hence paired it with a nice comfy Calvin Klein shorts and my fedora hat from good old Uniqlo.




This style of off shoulder top is slightly different than the conventional gartered tube top style, which often rides up to your shoulders when you lift up your arms. The sleeves being non gartered and seperately stitched on to the main body of the outfit allows that flexibility of movement of the arms. And somehow its a sexier feel to your standard off shoulder top.



The flared sleeves is another hot summer trend to play with. The theatrical and dramatic effect of these sleeves is certainly one reason why I love this top so much.




Kept accessories to the same colour tone and paired it with my favourite sneakers for running around. Perfect outfit for summer holidays too !
