Friday Fashions: Off-the-Shoulder Trend!

Hey lovelies!

Welcome to my Friday series, Friday Fashions!
This week I am going to be talking all about the off-the-shoulder trend! I've been seeing this popping up all over the place and thought this would be the perfect opportunity to talk about it!

Dress from Free People, Top from Asos, Top from Free People, Dress from Asos

I absolutely love this trend! I think it is so versatile, so there's a version of it for everyone!  It gives off a very classic and effortless look while still being a little sexy by showing off the skin.  There's something extremely beautiful about the shoulders and collarbone, and this trend allows you to show off those gorgeous, feminine features!

These next pieces are my favorites! I've split them up to show you the different ways you can work this trend!


Flowy and Bohemian:
We'll start off with my favorite category!  I love these flowy, light fabrics, especially for the summer time!
Top from Free People
I love this top!  The crochet detailing on the neckline is so subtle and gorgeous.  The off-the-shoulder cut of this top is really able to show off that design and adds a definite hippy vibe to it!

Dress from Asos
THIS DRESS! I absolutely adore this dress.  I really am a sucker for white dresses with lace or crochet details.  I can't help but be drawn to them, they are just so beautiful!  I think the small straps add an interesting aspect to the dress that I really like, and the details on the bottom are just to die for.  The off-the-shoulder neckline looks so effortless and lazy.  I can just imagine walking around in a field of sunflowers in this dress.  I am so close to ordering it right now!


Crop Top:
I think an off-the-shoulder crop top with a pair of high-waisted shorts is so cute! Definitely something you would want to wear to a summer music festival!

Top from Free People
I think the outfit on the model is styled perfectly!  A patterned off-the-shoulder crop top looks adorable with denim high-waisted shorts!  This top adds a little bit of edge to the bohemian off-the-shoulder looks I showed earlier but still looks super comfy!

Top from Lulu's
This top is definitely edgier than the last crop top! It's much tighter fit and monotone color would make it look great with some patterned high-waisted shorts.  If you wanted to keep the true edge of the top, pair it with some distressed denim (like the model has) and some combat boots!  This is a truly versatile top and is sure to feel great during the hot summer months! 


Sleek and Structured:
These next two dresses are for the more formal occasions, or for those who aren't as into the bohemian trend.  They are definitely sexier and sleeker and would be great for a night out!

Dress from Lulu's
A little black dress! Every girl needs one, and this off-the-shoulder dress could definitely be it!  This GORGEOUS neckline and off-the-shoulder gives it a very classic but definitely sexy look.  I absolutely love how the off-the-shoulder trend is executed on this dress.  It definitely gives me an Old Hollywood vibe!

Dress from Asos
This body-con dress is designed with the off-the-shoulder trend that adds a sexier look to the vintage paisley.  This is another very versatile usage of the off-the-shoulder trend!  The shoulders make it very easy to either add a nude heel and pink clutch for a girlier look perfect for girls night out, or black booties and a dark cropped jacket for a sexier look perfect for a date or the club.



So if you can't tell, I'm loving this off-the-shoulder trend! There are so many ways to wear it and its the perfect addition to your summer or year-round wardrobe!

Much love,
Rachel
