Off Shoulder Tops

One of the most popular trends going around today is off the shoulder tops for girls. Back then, having a shirt or sweater off your shoulder was "edgy" and stylish. Usually it was a shirt that was only supposed to be off one shoulder. But now, times have changed and the off shoulder tops have evolved. The tops are now elastic on the rims to keep hold onto the shoulders. With many different styles as well, from plain white to floral pink, bell sleeves or spaghetti straps, and crop top or long dresses.

Progress: For this blog the focus was mainly on the fashion styles that used to be popular but have evolved into newer styles for the newer generation. I was able to seek what average people wear that was similar to the styles that were worn before the 2000's. These styles have become vintage and unique due to its past fame. It was easy for me to look these styles up since I also have many friends who enjoys wearing these pieces of clothing. They were able to help me understand more about these pieces as well.

Reflection: This is the 3rd to last blog and was really interesting for me because I was able to see what people would wear that resembles older fashion. Seeing how these pieces of fabrics evolved into newer styles are amazing. I was able to spot these pieces of clothing easily in public as well. As a kid, I remember seeing some of these styles and living through them but it never occurred to me that these styles would come back again. It was very nice seeing this generation appreciate older styles and incorporating that into their daily outfits.
