Everyone's Wearing Bras as Tops—Here Are 8 Ways to Style Yours

The bra-top trend is nothing new, but now that spring is officially right around the corner and people are starting to break out of their "sweatpants and leggings only" state of mind, we're seeing more and more bras make their way to the forefront of our Instagram feeds. Styling bras or bralettes might seem intimidating considering we're used to solely wearing them underneath our clothing, but thanks to the fashion set, we've been gifted with some new ways to wear the trend that will make you feel like tackling the trend is no big deal. 

In case you were nervous, no, not every outfit below is just a bra as a top and that's it. In fact, it's actually quite the opposite. Fashion girls have been wearing everything from big button-downs to boxy blazers over their tiny bras and bralettes and the looks are much more approachable than you might think. Don't believe me? Then take a gander at the eight outfits ahead. I have a feeling after seeing them you'll solely want to wear bras as tops for the rest of spring and summer.
