“Cold shoulder tops for spring? Groundbreaking.” College campuses around the world are embracing the warmer temperatures by showing some skin, and the perfect way is to put together an outfit featuring a cold shoulder top. The trend is found at every major fast fashion retailer and is produced in about every color and print imaginable, thus giving Fashionistas the ability to try out this trend while staying true to their style.
This Fashionista stays on trend by wearing a high neckline top that balances out the cutouts on the shoulders. The ribbed material of the shirt gives the outfit some detail and depth, and the shirt features a cropped hem that allows her to wear a pair of high-waisted jeans. The tight fit of the pants keeps the outfit sleek and simple while adding color to break up the gray and black of the top and heels. The jeans are perfectly rolled up and stop at the right length to give the spotlight to the shoes. The Fashionista paired the jeans with heels, and the snakeskin texture of these heels gives the otherwise simple outfit some small details that make it stand out in a crowd. She completed the look by adding a pair of gold hoop earrings and a pop of color with red lipstick.
As this Fashionista displayed, the cold shoulder top trend is back, and it is here to stay for the spring and summer season. The versatility of the top and the variety of silhouettes and colors it is available in makes it a great piece to try out this summer.
