I have to say these are my favourite posts to write. Getting wear from clothes is something I am passionate about, I am not a fan of fast fashion and buying something for one night out and never wearing again. When I spend money I want to get value from it. When I spend my money on clothes I always like to choose something that will sit well with my wardrobe and help me create even more outfit options. And I really hope these posts inspire you to think about every purchase you make and how you are going to wear this purchase. When you get something new you should be excited about bringing it home and all the new outfit options it is going to offer you.
Tops are a brilliant budget friendly way of adding a new look to your wardrobe. Tops are also a great way of adding an on trend colour, an on trend print or an on trend detail to you hero basics. Plus you can never have enough tops in your wardrobe. Out of all your clothing tops are the items that get washed most and get the most attention. So don't ever feel guilty about splashing out on another top. Of course every now and then do remove some tops from your wardrobe and pass them on to charity.
Frilly Wrap Top €50 from Oasis......Buy Here http://www.oasis-stores.com/ie/new-in/frilly-wrap-top/064538.html?cgid=new-in-all&position=6&dwvar_064538_color=68 |
I selected this top because of the shape. It has a soft peplum waist and ties around at the back. The v-neck is a very flattering style for larger boobs and I love the subtle frill detail around the neckline and sleeves. The colour is also great as it's a fab way to transition our winter wardrobe into spring.
LOOK ONE
My first styling suggestion for this top is to dress it up a little giving you the option to wear it out to dinner, lunch or drinks.
