How to choose a top style for pants and skirts?

To choose a top style to go with pants or skirts you need to determine the style of your bottom (pants or skirt). A general rule is to go with a more fitted top if your pants or skirts are full. If your pants are slim or your skirt is slim you can wear fuller tops or sweaters with them.

Another consideration when you choose a top style is your body type. If you have a big bust a dark color top is flattering. If your bust is small a bold colored top, print or a horizontal stripe would look stylish.

If your shoulders are wide “V” neck, scoop neck and tops without collars are best. Fitted sleeves, raglans and loose and long dolman sleeves make shoulders appear smaller.

If you have narrow shoulders you can wear off-the-shoulder, boat neck tops and tops that widen your shoulders. Puff, cap or short sleeves will help give width to your shoulders.

Tip: Three quarter length or long sleeves are flattering if your arms are wrinkled or unattractive.
