After not shopping for what felt like a lifetime (realistically 3 weeks) I had a little spree the other weekend and one of the items I picked up was this gorgeous yellow cotton top. I was instantly drawn to the gorgeous buttercup yellow colourings, and after admiring the coat version for a while I thought I may treat myself to this cute top.
The shape of the top is actually really unflattering on me, as a girl with a waist and hips box cut tops should really be a written no go. But, everynow and then I think ‘feck it’, if I really want something and I feel good in it, why not just buck the trend. So I did just that. I actually left the top the first time round, but after 15 minutes ran back to Zara to buy it, and haven’t regretted it since.
. Zara Yellow Top £30 . Tosphop Sandals £50 . Salsa Jeans .
The material of the top is really high quality making it quite a chic, classy little number. I love the yellow, it really makes the top perfect for spring and is a little something to add to my wardrobe. I’ve worn the top a couple of times already, but this is an outfit I wore to work last week. I opted for a simple skinny jean ensemble as I think given the cut of the top, you really need something simple and fitted on the bottom half. I added my Topshop sandals which went perfectly and felt like a ray of sunshine all day long.
I’d love to know how you’d style a top like this, particularly as it’s not the usual sort of cut I go for. Are you a fan of the cute spring yellow colour too?

I don’t think it’s unflattering, I always think if you balance it with something fitted on the bottom it’s fine :) x

I love this top, I ummed and ahhed about buying it but decided it wasn’t quite right on my (rather manly) shoulders! I really wanted to wear it with denim cutoffs in the summer.
