The fall 09 season sports a lot of fun top trends: draped tops, ruffled blouses, one shoulder tops, plaid shirts, and hardware tops.
Some are more worthy investments than others.
While a ruffled or a draped top can be worn for seasons to come and is a worthy investment, a plaid shirt seems to be a passing fad, that may not be worth the $$.
In this fall top guide, I wanted to concentrate on trends that are more universal and that have staying longevity. Here they are:
Note: to sweeten the pot, most of the tops are from Piperlime(owned by Gap) and they now sell carefully edited clothing section. The best part: free shipping and returns (same as Zappos and Piperlime free shipping & returns on shoes). Since clothing may hard sometimes to shop virtually, it gives you a chance to try it and send it back at no cost if it doesn’t fit.
Draped Top- this style is classy, modern, and hides flows. I especially love the Whisper top by Velvet in graphite, because of how much it resembles Rick Owens style and the classy grey color.
