Let the comfort of fashion seduce you with the latest in laid-back chic: the oversized top.
Proportion is the main attraction these days and this latest craze in tops will have you sold on the trend. With a desire to give a gal what she wants, It designers Stella McCartney, Alexander Wang and Jean Paul Gaultier for Hermès have proven that oversized doesn’t have to be synonymous with messy. When it comes to appropriating loose-fitting pieces with polished perfection, fashionista Mary-Kate Olsen is at the helm of the trend, often spotted strolling in NYC draped in her loose-fit, oversized tops. This trend is easy to pull-off. Throw your of-the-moment boyfriend blazer over a body-conscious top or go for a cardigan two sizes too big and give the overall look a feminine silhouette with a pair of skinny jeans or leggings. Got a belt ? Use it as the perfectly tailored accessory to all your oversized tops and slack spring coats. After all, when it comes to style, the best outfits are always a cinch!
