WSS Style: Off The Shoulder Sexiness This Summer
The trend this Summer is taking the boho look a step further and showing off your shoulders with off the shoulder peasant tops or cut out shoulder baring tops. As you can see from the celebrities above and below, it is an easy going, pretty but sexy style. This look is fantastic for those with a pear or hourglass shape figures, as it balances out your proportions. We are also fans of boat neck tops for this reason.

Where do I buy some off the shoulder tops I hear you ask? We have trowelled the internet and found the best tops for you:
Seed have a wide range of gorgeous off the shoulder tops, at the moment there are 11 tops in the range and 3 off the shoulder dresses.
French Connection also have pretty off the shoulder tops for some french chic. We love the sequin top for some night time bling. The top would look amazing with wide leg black pants with heels. The scallop edge strip top would look nautical chic with navy or white linen pants or shorts.
Boohoo are the masters of reasonably priced style from the latest trends. How cute is the pink blouse? It is only $8!
If you are a curvy woman, we haven’t forgotten you! We are loving the SS16 top cold shoulder/ off the shoulder range from City Chic. The black lace top off the shoulder tops always give a flirty feeling, and the Uneven Stripe Top is no exception. The tops are each and go to a size XL (24).
The Boohoo Plus tops range from a size 16 to a size 24. The Lilou off the shoulder top offers chic sexiness to casual styling and the Evie wrap cut out shoulder top looks great with jeans and a pair of block heel shoes.
