how to style a peasant top

If you’ve been on Instagram, Pinterest, or TikTok lately, you’ve seen it: yes folks, that Oughts favorite, the peasant top, is ba-aaaaaackk!

Let’s be clear – the 2020 iteration leans heavily on shape and proportion in ways that the 2000s-by-way-of-1960s tops never dared. These bbs are more fitted, cropped, and have punchy sleeves or sliding-off-the-shoulder necklines. They beg for a sleek, high-waisted skirt or fitted jean. Frankly, it’s the type of piece you could get away with wearing almost anywhere, except perhaps to a conservative office, Catholic mass, many funerals, or as a participant in extreme sports.
