I'm All About Statement Tops This Summer—29 Calling My Name at Shopbop RN
I love statement tops. I live and die by the promise of a cute, chic top to transform any outfit from boring to beautiful. While my daytime style veers more into the understated-comfort category, I'll always find an excuse to wear something bright, shiny, and sparkly on a night on the town.
Now that the weather is getting warmer and I'm finding more and more excuses to get out of the house, a statement top of choice paired with a simple pair of jeans has been my go-to outfit. Notwithstanding the fact that it's quite simple to assemble (you only need two pieces of clothing!), it also gives an insight into my playful personality— something that a white tank top simply can't do.
Below, browse all of the statement tops I've been eyeing on Shopbop, including a few I'm more than sure you'll fall in love with too.
The low-cut neckline on this chocolate silk top means it's appropriate for my next night out.
This oversize Simone Rocha–esque top would pair so well with a frilly skirt if you want to lean into the full coquette aesthetic.
This top was made for wearing with a pair of straight-leg denim.
Transform any office outfit to a date-night outfit with this top by simply adding a blazer on top during the daytime.
This top takes sheer dressing to whole new heights. Opt for a pair of black jeans or muted straight-leg trousers to style it with.
Peplums are low-key coming back into style, and after seeing this top, I'm not mad about it.
The colors on this Simkhai top would pair so well with some classic white jeans.
I'll leave you with the top Gen Z flocks to the most: low-cut denim corsets.
