5 Tips For Shopping For Ladies Tops In Late Winter

Shopping for ladies tops before spring can be a bit of a tricky process. You want something that is cute, stylish, and wearable for at least several months, but when it is still winter most of the spring lines of ladies clothing are just too cold! Luckily, there are a few ways to combat this conundrum. Here are 5 top tips to remember when shopping for ladies tops in late winter.

1. Buy warm, breathable materials. Natural materials like cotton and hemp allow the warmth of your own body to stave off the chills but don’t make you overheat. Buying tops that flow instead of form fitting ones, also allows extra fabric for warmth as well as extra ventilation. No one wants to feel (or look) sweaty!

2. Look for long or 3/4 length sleeves. Some spring tops are made of light fabric but have long sleeves to prevent you from getting too cold. If you live in a warmer climate, 3/4 sleeves are a great transition from those bulky cold weather clothes.

3. Look for tops that can be layered. Off the shoulder tops look chic with tank tops, and tees are classic with long sleeve undershirts. One good trick is to buy one top that is colourful or playful, and another which is more neutral and subdued. It’s up to you whether you want the outer or inner layer to be the fun one! Try playing around with layered clothing, so you are able to showing off some skin but still stay warm.

4. Consider buying a light jacket or two. If you just have to have that low cut or sheer top to saunter to the party in, then consider buying a light jacket or two to wear during the evenings or on cold days. Once you get indoors you can shed the jacket and show off that sexy top.

5. Look at spring headwear. Most of your body’s heat is lost through the top of your head, so it pays to consider headwear this spring. There are many options available for wonderful hats that will go with several different outfits such as boho knit caps, fedoras, or even head scarves. Bonus: you’ll have a backup plan for those bad hair days!

Above all, be sure you are shopping for your body type and practicality – not just to stay on top of the newest fashion trends. There are far too many fashion ideas that look great on the stage or your favorite celebrity, but have no real-world use and look horrible on you. While you don’t have to worry about wearing these tops every day for the rest of your life, you should definitely be buying clothing that you can wear several times and in several different ways.
