HOLD UP! She did what ??

HOLD UP! 
She Did What???

Yes ladies, you are seeing the above image correctly! This model is wearing her shirt BACKWARDS! At Spring Fashion Week '16 this was a trend that everyone was wearing from New York all the way to Paris. At first glance it looks a little odd, but I knew the minute I saw this trend it was something that I would be following. 

First, let me give you all a little backstory as to how I came across this trend. So, I finally buckled down and made an ipsy account. (Which I highly recommend because I absolutely love it.) Anyway, I somehow managed to get signed up for a years supply of Glamour magazine. (Whoop de doo!) At first I had been tossing the magazine's to the side, but lately I've found myself anticipating next months arrival. 

So this month, I'm flipping through the pages, completely interested in everything I'm seeing, then I come across this page with a woman wearing her button down BACKWARDS! As I'm sure you can imagine, my mouth fell to the floor and my eyes widened in shock. The first words to leave my mouth were, "HOLD UP! She did what???" and from there my blog post was born.

WARNING: This trend is NOT for the faint of heart!

Natalie Hartley, the fashion director for GLAMOUR, can be seen above rocking her button down backwards, and I must say she is killing it! The open back gives off a sexy vibe, and the necklace turned backwards adds a little bit more class to the look. 

This style is definitely one that can only be pulled off by the most daring of fashionistas. It is a bold, exciting, and fun spin on the classic button down shirt. People may look at you a little weirdly upon first glance, but I'm more than positive after a while they will be giving you a saluting you for being able to rock such a unique outfit. 

The best thing about this trend is that most of us already own the items necessary! It's almost a necessity that a woman has a button down in her wardrobe. To take this trend to the next level, pair your shirt with a pair of denim jeans. High waist jeans are one way to add a little flavor to your attire. Also, try black skinny legs jeans, and you could even add a pop of color by pairing your top with a pair of mustard high waist pants, shorts, or a pleated skirt. 

Let me know what you guys think of this trend, and when I try it out I'll definitely be sure to post pictures. 

As always...
stay classy, stay true
