We're still seeing lots of variations of the "cold" shoulder in the recent trends. Whether it's one shoulder, cold shoulder, off the shoulder or somewhere in between, these styles are still popular and in no rush to disappear.

Not all off the shoulder tops are made the same. Have you noticed? Depending on the style, fabric and elastic these tops can fit very differently. One issue you can encounter is having the elastic top bunch up on you. Continuously pulling down your shirt can be a hassle. You also want to have movement of your arms. There's nothing worse than not being able to move your arms because your top is too constraining. That simply will not do.

So I wanted to share this recent purchase with you. I picked up this top at Banana Republic recently. It is not only comfortable but also flattering and versatile. I was a little unsure at first because I ordered it online and was afraid it might be too wide combined with the large sleeves leaving an overwhelming and unflattering feeling. Turns out, not the case at all. The top is streamlined and the neckline offsets any feeling of the top being overwhelming. Additionally the long tie sleeves help to keep the top and neckline in place.

So if you've been unsatisfied with the off the shoulder trend, this might be a top worth checking out. It's currently available in 3 colors/prints and at a very reasonable price point. Happy Shopping!
