Give ‘Em The Hot Shoulder Treatment With These 15 Off-the-Shoulder Tops
For Summer 2016, it’s not all about the bass — it’s all about the shoulder! Bardot tops — which were given that moniker as an homage to Brigitte Bardot, who popularized off-the-shoulder blouses in her time — are everywhere this season, proving that shoulders might just be the new cleavage.
Below, check out 15 coquettish tops that capture the fun-loving spirit of summer thanks to design elements like kittenish ruffles, tassel embellishments, midriff-baring lengths, vibrant colors, peplum hemlines, and playful prints ranging from lush florals to Bohemian paisley patterns and classic striped motifs. In fashion, as it turns out, Bardot tops are getting anything but the cold shoulder treatment!
