Shoulder-Baring Sleeves Are a Trans-Seasonal Must

We’re approaching one of those tricky times of year. You know, when one season is close to ending before another one comes rolling in. The spring to summer evolution is more or less smooth thanks to somewhat common temperatures. But the move from summer to fall can feel more substantial. Especially since temps can go from the 80s down to the 50s without much warning. That’s why it’s high time to embrace shoulder-baring sleeves. Off-the-shoulder sleeves were a big trend when it came to the Fall 2021 collections. Fendi, Khaite and Osman are just some of the brands advocating showing some shoulder. They were spotted on tops and dresses in all sorts of materials. From knits to lighter fare. The extra ventilation means you can wear these pieces in both summer and fall. As fall goes along and it gets noticeably colder, simply slip a cardigan on top to extend the life of the look. Some versions will even allow you to layer a top underneath. Perfect for creating that coveted layered look. Keep reading to discover the most stylish must-buys boasting shoulder-baring sleeves to add to your trans-seasonal wardrobe.
