My favorite trend for this spring and summer is ruffles. I’m so obsessed with the look whether it’s on an off-shoulder shirt, a one-shouldered dress, or a swimsuit. Come August you better believe I’ll be rocking this look non-stop. Sorry in advance… slash actually I’m not.
I’ve loved seeing all of the fashion bloggers styling it lately, though, and I’m feeling inspired by their looks! I love how Mackenzie wore this top (in red) in her post last week, and Grace looked amazing in this off shoulder shirt ($85) earlier this week.
I’ve rounded up some of my favorite pieces online and tried to find similar versions of most of them at lower price points so that there’s a little something for everyone!

Try the pieces that don’t stick out too much like the dress on the bottom row or the coral one in the middle row. They won’t add much bulk but still cover the trend!

I’m feeling much better this week, thank you for asking! Everything is kind of just uncomfortable but it’s so much better than being nauseous all the time. I’ll take it!
I love this trend – as someone with absolutely tiny shoulders it makes me look like I’m at least trying to be a grown up, haha.
Ha! I love that.
LOVE most all of these!! My only thought is that I feel so fat in these styles (and I’m not a large person)! How do you pull them off without looking large???
Legit question! I’d focus on pieces like the off shoulder dress on the bottom row or the coral one-shoulder in the middle row. Those will be more universally flattering. Let me know if they work!
Thanks for the tips! I’ll let you know for sure! Love your blog and your IG!!
