Chic at Every Age // One Shoulder Top

By Styleofsam @styleofsam

It's that time again... the CHIC AT EVERY AGE . This week, we bring you ONE SHOULDER TOP!!

For those of you that have just tuned in, this fab collab is exactly how it sounds... a chic chick in her 20s, 30s, 40s, and 50s shows you how to style a piece in their own way. I'm working with some of my FAVORITE gals in Dallas!!

The 20-something // Brooke of One Small Blonde

The 30-something // ME!

The 40-something // Heather of

The 50-something // Cathy of The Middle Page

Photography // Mary of So Then They Say


Cathy looks fab in her skinny pants and cage sandals. Heather looks cool as always in distressed denim and choker. I paired my top with faux leather culottes and a stacked heel sandal. Brooke nailed it with graphic shorts and wedges.

This was such an interesting "experiment" for me. The off the shoulder trend has been going strong and I love it, but the ruffles (and tulle to give it volume) were a little too much for me. To balance out the feminity, I paired it with a structured bottom and pulled back hair. Funny because I love anything voluminous and dramatic, but I didn't feel it was for me. However, seeing the pictures of the gals make me realize how versatile this top is and now I like it! Ha! Plus, it's on sale for $79 (originally $140).

THE STYLE Rx: A one shoulder top is a great way to look subtly sexy but sophisticated and chic at the same time. Wear it for date night, vacation, or girls night out! Take some inspiration from my beautiful friends above!

Did you spot my special photo bomber in the individual picture?! Things have been a little hectic with a newborn and a toddler, to say the least! We were scheduled for the photo shoot and Little M was throwing up the night before. Luckily, Gma had volunteered to take care of Baby MJ. So I took Little M with me to the shoot. It's so difficult when four other people are involved with schedules.

Anyhow, he was such a trooper and I cherish the time that we spent together even if it was fortuitous! Hope y'all are having a wonderful week. I'm still in survival mode until Saturday when Mr. S gets back into town. Wish me sleep! LOL!
