Personally, I’m thrilled that one-shoulder looks are taking center stage this season, since they’re commonly much more flexible than their off-the-shoulder cousins. Whether it’s a long sleeve top like the one I’m using today with one shoulder peeking out, or a sleeveless one-shoulder top such as this one with arms exposed, the neckline can be dressed up or down with ease. Pair it with jean shorts for an simple weekend look or with skinny denim as well as heels for date night. I especially like sweatshirts such as this one which produce super cozy toppers on spring as well as summertime nights.

When it comes to asymmetrical bottoms, the very first thing that commonly comes to mind is the typical scarf hemline with sharp corners hanging down haphazardly. You’ll see a great deal of those around, however this season, designers have come up with even more innovative methods to integrate asymmetry below the belt. Whether it’s the soft, subtle undulations across the bottom of a skirt like my navy midi in Tuesday’s post, or fascinating outlining down one pant leg like today’s culottes, the options are endless as well as the styles feel fresher than ever.
While today is all about asymmetry, this look likewise picks up on one more important pattern for spring—ruffles. Whether they’re micro ruffles at the edge of a shirt sleeve or voluminous waves down the leg of a plant, this pattern has been going strong for the past year as well as doesn’t appear to be letting up anytime soon. I really just bought these ruffle-waist pants last night—how adorable are they?! As you can see, I can’t get enough!
