Off-shoulder ruffled bell tops have been on trend throughout summer and don’t seem to be going away. I have joined the party late but as they say, better late than never besides I am fashionably late. For the longest time I loved how off shoulder ruffled bell tops looked ok other people. I didn’t personally think they would look good on me especially with my cleavage. Little did I know that I just need to find a style that would suit my frame and match my personality.
How I styled an off-shoulder ruffled bell top
As I mentioned already, I avoided off shoulder ruffled bell tops like a plague. One day last week I did a mini shop with my sister and we stumbled upon this top. I knew the colour, the design and it’s simplistic nature spoke to me and I bought it. It’s the first off shoulder ruffled bell top that I haven’t managed to talk myself out of buying.ย
When I got home after the mini shop I knew exactly how I was going to style this top. The first idea involved pairing it with black shorts which I wore to my date. My date appreciated the overall outfit he couldn’t keep his eyes off me though wasn’t the aim I was pleased.
I knew I was going to be traveling to Paris so I decided to pair the top with skinny jeans. Y’all know I am a sucker for skinny jeans as they are a staple in my closet and an essential all year round.
To finish off the look I paired this top with a strapless bra (a rarity for me) and sparkly canvas. I feel this outfit worked for me because all the pieces complimented each other. It’s a relaxed look you can wear to ran errands or wear on a date and will still look stylish.

I like your off shoulder top. Nice color and you paired it perfectly with jeans and glittery shoes. That and floral prints are the trend nowadays and they both make women feel so feminine.

This is really pretty. I am seeing these everywhere and I really like the look of off shoulder. My one girl can carry this off beautifully in my opinion. I used to be able to and now not so sure. I will look for one for her actually.

I love your top and your entire outfit – those shoes are amazing! I have several off shoulder dresses and tops. At first, I thought they’d be uncomfortable but I actually love wearing them, even with the dreaded strapless bra. ๐
