For the past couple of seasons, as far as t-shirt/blouse/top trends go, brands have been focusing on the shoulders and arms. From off-the-shoulder tops to cold-shoulder tops, and from puffed sleeves to bell sleeves, if you wanted a way to call attention to your shoulders and arms, there were (and still are) plenty of ways to do so.

However, recently, it seems as though designers have been taking a different approach as to what goes on your top half, and are shifting the focus towards the chest and waist area instead.  

Enter: the ultra-flattering, works-on-everyone wrap top!

Essentially a shorter version of the classic wrap dress, wrap tops are characterized by, you guessed it, the way that they wrap across your body to create a feminine silhouette that shows off your shape in the best way possible.

One of the great things about wrap tops is that they come in a bunch of different variations, from looser-fitting ones that tie at the hip, to more fitted ones that tie at the waist show off every curve, meaning that you’re sure to find a wrap top that works for your body and personal sense of style.

Wrap Top Outfit #1

Products: Top – Madewell, Skirt – H&M, Sunglasses – Mango, Bag – Gap, Espadrilles – Gap, Earrings – Revolve, Necklace – Revolve, Bracelet – Madewell

This sunny, spring-y outfit is so easy to throw on and go! Simply put on a pretty yellow star-printed wrap top. (Note: The neckline on this top, like many wrap tops, is a little on the lower side, so don’t be afraid to layer a simple tank or camisole underneath if you’re uncomfortable showing a lot of skin.) Next, add a denim pencil skirt with a destroyed hem for some cool contrast.
