Spring is in the air! The breeze is cool and fresh, bunnies are hopping in the yard, birds chirp excitedly above your head, and butterflies flitter to and fro.
Speaking of butterflies, a new trend, begun slowly last spring, has awakened and ascended gracefully in the fashion world... butterfly sleeve tops. Feminine, artistic, and statement-making, atleast one needs to take harbour (and cocoon for the winter) in your closet!
The tops are everywhere, and hard to miss. Here are a few examples I discovered on a recent trip to the mall...
Notice the "it" color of the season, peach/salmon/honeysuckle, and the use of embroidery.
Another, more literal, example of a butterfly sleeve top...
Perhaps you may feel a bit insecure taking a bit of a leap from the ordinary t-shirts and jeans of our culture, but the benefits outweigh the sacrifices. These tops fit similarly to a tee, and are affordable if you do a bit of shopping around (I reccommend Kohls.com for a good deal!). They can be easily paired with jeans of any cut (I wear mine with skinnies) or shorts (bermudas or short). Wearing this top is a simple way to acheive a perfectly feminine, fresh look.
I might have to get one of these now...
