The Craze: Give 'em the shoulder

The Craze is a trend report bringing you the latest (and, duh, the greatest) in beauty and style.

Now turning your shoulder to someone is no longer a cold gesture. Just accentuate your shoulders with puffy sleeves and anyone would be glad to see them. No need to overdo it, the right amount of oomph can give life to even the plainest of outfits. A few celebrities have tried the trend and managed to be show stoppers.

Even if you don’t have the bank account of a celebrity don’t let that stop you. Urban Outfitters has some pieces that follow the strong shoulder trend.

Try the Sparkle & Fade Strong Shoulder Top for $32, and if you’re not ready to make a statement with your style, that’s okay. Urban Outfitters has a long sleeve version that gives the shoulders a curvier look.

You’re sure to still look hot with this top for $32. It also comes in blue, black, and grey. When you’re at an event, don’t be scared to give em’ the shoulder in any way that suits you. Whether you try the puff-shoulder look with an eye-catching dress or a simple top with subtle details, you’ll stand out in every way that matters.
