Hottest Holiday Trends Bell Sleeves & Off The Shoulder

With the fall season and cooler weather we seek out trends that can be translated into thicker sweaters and long sleeved dresses and tops, such as the current hot styles of off the shoulder and bell sleeves.

These trends are easy to layer with in the colder seasons and can be reiterated in a variety of different fabrics and knits throughout the year, making each a favorite for the fall and winter seasons. From casual off the shoulder sweaters from BB Dakota to wear all fall, to bell sleeve blouses by Veronica M that are timeless in elegance, to flouncy Susana Monaco dresses with a dramatic tiered sleeve for the holidays, we have all the hottest trends to get you through the upcoming season in style.
