Opinions on this ATL top
Permalink Closed


This ATL top caught my eye because I like the flowers....but something about this looks off/unflattering to me as a garment (as opposed to just a random picture of flowers in that arrangement). What do you guys think? Is the placement of the little flowers too weird to look good on a shirt?

I think the shirt is probably just clipped a little too tightly on the model.

It does seem like the flowers should be more completely tacked down for the pattern they're in, or in a different pattern if left this loosely applied.

Anyhow, it would be a super-easy DIY, and then you could place the flowers wherever you'd like ...

I think that anyone with any sort of a chest will look kind of lopsided in it. Those type of tops never lay right on me.

I think it's really cute, but it's just the fact that it's tucked in that makes it look weird.

Yikes - this is what I was afraid of. I am a bit more busty than the model wink

I think it is cute but definitely something I'd have to try on first.

I think it looks a little off too.  I think Jcrew does this look a lot better.

Run away. Run don't walk. I thought you were over cutesy?

Kelly,  This top just popped up over on Forever21.com.  It is similar in color and has flowers but they are placed differently.

HA. I thought so too. I am trying so hard but I keep finding myself putting bows on my head and pinning flowers to my shirts and shit like that all the time. I don't know what's going on. It's so weird to be attracted to clothes that I don't WANT to like!

P.S. I like opinionated Su. I asked for opinions after all!

 

 

Aurora - Thanks!
