Tops, tops, tops. When it comes to dressing your
upper half there are plenty of options. Some of the
trendiest tops right now are sheer. Many of them are black,
but if you are not into that they come in an assortment with different
kinds of materials such as flowy or tight.

The best part? You can easily wear them to class or out on the
weekend,  as long as you pair it  with the right outfit, and they’re perfect
for the fickle Syracuse weather. They can be found at stores such as
Urban Outfitters, Free People, Forever 21, and H&M. My personal favorite
was an H&M large sheer button-down that fit like a dress on me, but can be worn
in so many different ways that I wear it all the time in the summer.
Recently, I spotted a white top, but had sheer diagonal lines across
that could be worn in a few ways. Sheer tops can be worn with just
about everything.

1. Flowy sheer top with bandeau underneath tucked into jeans.

2. Tight sheer top tucked into a skirt.

3. Tight mini dress with a loose sheer button down on top.

4. Shorts with a loose sheer button down used as a shirt tied at the
waist.

5. White (or any other color top) with lines either straight of diagonal
across paired up with jeans tucked in or loose.

Elora likes pina coladas and getting caught in the rain...but only warm rain, and especially rain that's packaged in summer thunderstorms! The sophomore magazine journalism and English major is an assistant feature copy editor for SU's independent student newspaper, the Daily Orange, and is a contributing writer for GALA Magazine. She is also a brother in the community service fraternity Alpha Phi Omega. Elora has country music on her iTunes for every possible mood and she will never turn down a Dave Matthews Band concert, a trip to Panera Bread or a pickup soccer game. Although she's not sure exactly what she wants to do after graduation, she hopes to use writing to make a difference in someone's world.
