Power To The Puff

I had the opportunity to write a trend piece for Gulf Coast Woman magazine and it was amazing! The topic was about the PUFF trend, if you couldn’t tell by the title. (lol) If you’ve noticed the puff has been around us all along. I’m now classifying this trend as a Classic! I decided to make a quick blog post about it and link some cool puff sleeved items! You can check out my article here or just scroll down and read about it! Thank you Gulf Coast Woman for giving me the opportunity to talk about things I love.

Power to the puff

This blast from the past is here to stay

The ’80s are back in full effect. I’m so excited! I’ve always wanted to be a part of this fun, vibrant era, and now I can be! The puff sleeve has gradually been gaining a foothold in 2020, and as you’ve probably noticed, it’s everywhere. At this point, it’s no longer a trend; it’s a classic.The puff sleeve is known forgiving extreme volume on top while creating a slimmer, fitted shape in the waist.Although the puff can be bold and intimidating, it’s the perfect risk to take. Within the puff-sleeve family, you have so many styles to choose from. Some may go for the vintage, Victorianfeel, giving a nod to the late 1800s. There’s also the elongated puff, which is perfect for flowing tops or dresses. The off-the-shoulder puff sleevemakes a romantic, yet modern, statement.The puff sleeve also has the advantage of being multi-seasonal; it’s the wardrobe element you need to transitionfrom summer to autumn.

Making it your own is the best part. I love this mint green, cropped puff-sleevetop. It gives me volume while maintaining a light-and-airy, feminine feel. With simple accessories and long bell bottom/ flare jeans, this look is stylish and comfortable while staying on-trend.
