The Striking Top Style You'll See in Every London Park This Summer

Park weather is rapidly approaching, and there is one trend that you'll see in every outdoor space this summer: milkmaid tops. Topshop, ASOS, Miss Selfridge and more have all created pretty prairie-style tops with lace-up detailing, shirred bodices, square necklines and bows. This is the perfect top to throw on during the weekends with jeans or shorts on hot days. The blouses will also work as a beach cover-up, worn with bikini bottoms and a basket bag. They aren't just for those out-of-office moments, however. ASOS insider Lotte shows you can also smarten these blouses up, as she wore hers with a checked pencil skirt to the office. Keep scrolling for our edit of the best tops for under £30.
