We all know fashion goes in cycles, but who wasn't a little surprised when
the eighties - with its pumps and off-the-shoulder tops - crept back onto the
runways this winter? While we are not going to go so far as to suggest you wear
leggings (not yet, anyway) there are a few tops that let you relive those neon
roller-skating and dirty-dancing days without shame.
Instead, we have the most comfortable top on the planet, with that 80's flair
we are so surprised to love again.
The
Three Dots Supima top is (cover your ears, fashion-hounds) fleece. I know,
fleece is for mountain-men, but this fleece more like an ultra-soft cotton; thin
and stretchy to be form-fitting. The off-the-shoulder cut and bow add subtle
flair to make this shirt totally versatile. Pair it with your jeans and hit the
streets; you can wear this shirt everywhere.
Central Park West comes through with two tops that take the eighties
upscale. Both of these sweater tops can be worn with jeans, or dressed-up with
tailored pants or a skirt. The mix of styles in these tops works perfectly. The
pronounced necklines and thick waste-bands draw on the eighties, while the
colors and brooches mix it up for a modern, dressy look.
