Statement Sleeves

It’s no secret that I love bell sleeves (as seen here, here, and here). I love them on dresses, rompers, tops – you name it. Part boho-chic, part drama, this sleeve silhouette adds instant spice to any outfit. Here I’m a wearing a top that has managed to combine two of my favorite trends: bell sleeves and off-the-shoulder. I kept the rest of my outfit with black shorts, although I think a breezy maxi skirt + belt combination would be cute as well. As you may have noticed, I’ve been wearing this belt and these boots on repeat – I love having simple go-to pieces that work with practically any outfit.

If you’re not sure about a crop top, why not try a blouse, a dress, or even a sweater? Statement sleeves are likely to be here to stay for several seasons. Speaking of seasons, I definitely got a dose of them during my most recent visit to SF (where these photos were taken!). As much as I love living in LA, it feels so good to get out of the city sometimes. SF is a quick and easy trip from Southern California, and has so much to offer!

See my favorite bell sleeve styles I’m lusting after below – what other details are you obsessing over this season? Do you love or hate the statement sleeves trend?

xx, Amy
