#1 | One-Shoulder Top For Date Night

If not for date night, then when!? Date night is the time to turn up the sexy. Instead of showing off ‘the girls’ with a sexy v-neck or your legs in a mini dress, consider wearing something that shows your shoulders. Wearing a sexy one shoulder, off the shoulder, or cold shoulder top is a simple way to look sexy. Pair it with some skinny jeans and heels for an easy, sophisticated date night outfit!

#2 | Off the Shoulder Sweaters to Keep It Cozy & Casual

If you’re looking for something more casual, especially for fall, throw on an off the shoulder sweater for a chic, cozy, casual look. You can wear it with joggers for a day of lounging around the house. Or throw on some jeans for a more elevated look.

#3 | Shoulder-Baring Dress For A Special Occasion

A special occasion is a perfect time to wear something off the shoulder or one shoulder! Picking a special dress for an evening out or a small wedding that’s off the shoulders always makes me feel super sexy. But with a more modest neckline, you’ll still look sophisticated. Make sure you follow the one skin rule!
