Loving Lately: Off The Shoulder Look + Fall Giveaway

Happy first day of Fall!

Ever since I can remember I have been a fan of the off the shoulder look.  I remember for my kindergarten picture (you know the one with the fluorescent neon lights in the background, anyone else had the same backdrop?) I wore my favorite off the shoulder dress and made sure that it was adjusted just so for the picture.  As the years went on, the off the shoulder look went out of style and I never wore it again... until 2015 and once again, I'm loving it!  I don't have many pieces, but love the couple that I do have and of course am itching to get a few more.

(before my aunt and uncle's 70's themed party)



I scoured Pinterest and found some more looks that I love.

What do you think of the off the shoulder look?  Do you have any pieces?

 Also, to commemorate the beginning of Fall, I've joined a few bloggers for a fun giveaway!

Love these looks! I have one shirt in my wardrobe that's off the shoulder--I feel like sometimes it's hard to find tops that look right on me. But all the ones you found are gorgeous!
Link this up with Jessi and I today!

I think the off the shoulder looks is so sexy! Pretty flattering on anyone too. I do always wonder what to do if you need to raise your arms though!

I love the off the shoulder trend! I finally bit the bullet and bought my own, but when I wore it the other night I felt so ridiculous. Almost scandalous...oooh showing off the shoulders! ;) Guess it means I just need more practice and wear out of it!

Marie said...

Aah I keep going back to this one blue dress a lot like the one in your first pic but I just can't commit. Does it not annoy you/the straps don't keep shifting up!? Help!

I remember that background! I think I was sporting a high ponytail in a scrunchie, killing it! I love the off the shoulder look, but I have yet to pick up on it, what am I thinking!?

I love being able to wear my sweaters and boots. I love that it is cool, but not too cool. And not so warm but we can still be outside comfortably.
