Who doesn't love being able to take one outfit and wear it two different ways?! More bang for your buck, right? Well I was excited when I realized I could take this basic, white off the shoulder shirt (which is so cute by the way and perfect to pair with just about anything) and easily turn it into a one shoulder blouse (the latest craze). Trust me - no one would ever know it wasn't originally intended to be that way (you can't see the arm hole). And you can do it with most off the shoulder shirts. The key is the style needs to be flowy/ruffley. If it's a fitted top it wouldn't work. And unfortunately you can't do it the other way around (ie you can't take a one shoulder shirt and turn it into an off the shoulder look). But you'd be surprised how many off the shoulder shirts and dresses you have in your closet that you can turn into one shoulder. Try it out! Some people say one shoulder is the new off the shoulder (if only I would have kept so many of my one shoulder tops circa 2000 - 2002) but you know what - I'm still a pretty big fan of off the shoulder so it's not going anywhere in my book. :)
Styling tip: This shirt is a little long so I like to do the front tuck. It shows off your waist to make it extra flattering and very chic. I'm also wearing high waisted jeans so a front tuck allows you to see the hi rise style. Finish the look with a great pair of low block heels (you guys know I'm obsessed).
