There's still some time left before the year's out
For the final must-buy of the year, we’ve got something that ticks off a load of 2019 trends –, or as we’re calling it, the puffy sleeve top.The top is not a complicated concept. It’s a velvet crop top with a V shape neckline, but with massive pink, puffy sleeves attached.Its appeal is obvious, especially for the festive period, in that it is velvet, black, and has a massive statement detail to make it perfect for celebrations .
Wear it to Christmas dinner and confuse your elderly relatives, who will be intimidated and puzzled by the huge size of your sleeves. Wear it to a Christmas party to show that you’re not like those other girls in the sparkly sequin-covered dresses. Wear it on New Year’s Eve to add some flair as you clink glasses, and attract a midnight kiss through the flamboyant mating dance your sleeves so demand.Be warned that if you wear this on public transport, you will endure the huffs and puffs of grouchy travellers drowning in those pink folds. Straight men will notthis top. Your sleeves will absolutely get caught on doorknobs and drip into your mashed potatoes.
But all this is worth it for the thrill of having the final it item of the year. It’s a piece that screams ‘POWER’ and ‘SLEEVES’, which is an excellent energy to possess as you see out the decade.
