STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Sheer And Boxy

January 23rd, 2015 at 1:59am

It is evident that crop tops make their way in every season’s trends. Whether it is lightweight or a knitted sweater, crop tops can be incorporated in all the seasons and in a variety of styles. You cannot get away from them. So if you can’t beat them, join them!

How has the crop top evolved for this winter/spring season? Sheer material and boxy silhouettes have been dominating the runways. From Balmain to Alexander Wang, these two trends have been seen in all the street style fashion designers’ ready-to-wear collections. Fortunately, these trends are so popular that you do not have to look far or spend a lot of money on high-end clothing to sport these looks. Another great thing about the sheer and boxy trend is that they look great when integrated in one whole clothing piece. They were meant to be together!

Check out this Fashionista who has conjoined comfort with high end street style. She has paired a sheer boxy crop top with a long marled kimono-style cardigan. To add to the different dimensions of this outfit, she tops off her look with a silver statement necklace. Sticking with the monochromatic look, she stays warm with an oversized cream boyfriend coat. Comfort is super important for every Fashionista, especially during the winter. It is hard to rock an outfit right off the runway when you have a busy schedule and it is freezing cold. Be sure to add your own touch to a trend so it can cater to your own individual lifestyle. Sheer fabrics and boxy silhouettes are perfect for Fashionistas/os who aim for a flowy, freeing and stylish look.
