Drape front blouses: fabulously flattering

Now, this is a trend I can get on board with.

Drape front tops or blouses can look effortlessly cool if you dress them down with a pair of skinny jeans, or totally chic and professional if you team with a pencil skirt and heels.

Not only that, but they're super flattering and easy to wear. And as they're all over the high street, you won't be short of options.

Topshop has a great range of long and short sleeved tops, including versions for tall girls, petite girls, and even mums-to-be. (This makes me wonder why Topshop don't have a plus size range. As far as I know, sizes only go up to a 16.)

I love this dusty lavender shade.  Unfortunately it's out of stock online, but I did see it in-store just yesterday - might be one to snap up if you see it?



Not sure about this trend

Fashionistas, if you've been paying any attention at all, you'll know there's a massive 1970s vibe coming through for Spring-Summer 2015. Boho is back, flares return, and denim is everything.

As part of this though, there's a micro-trend I'm really not sure about. At all.

I'm calling it the "partly see-through pants with matching top look", which should be self-explanatory.

Without more ado, the photographic evidence.

Exhibit A-sos (geddit?): ASOS Crochet Flares


Okay, I admit I can kind of see this working as an Ibiza hippy look, but only if worn by a supermodel type whose beauty routine consists of coconut oil. You know - if you crossed Gisele Bundchen with Hollywood flower child Shailene Woodley.


Exhibit B: Topshop - Sheer Striped Flared Trousers by Rare




This, however, I cannot understand at all.

If you can figure it out, please leave a comment.
