Puffy Sleeves Is A Romantic, Comfortable Trend We Can Get Behind

Puffy Sleeves Is A Romantic, Comfortable Trend We Can Get Behind

It seems like the puffy sleeves trend was made for us. It’s dramatic and stylish, but not too revealing. It’s equal parts 80s nostalgia and renaissance faire revival. As far as a dramatic sleeve goes, we much prefer the puff to a power shoulder blazer (although that’s coming back, too). And it’s easier to style than you thought!

If it’s still a little too hot for you to think about sweaters, a little puffed sleeve detail looks great on a t-shirt. Frame, one of our favorite jean brands, has a t-shirt that looks perfect with (you guessed it) jeans  and a cute belt. It comes in white, navy, black and bordeaux.

J.Crew’s puffed short-sleeve sweater is perfect for transitional weather. Cozy enough to keep you warm when there’s a chill in the air, the sleeve is subtle enough that you can also wear a jacket with it. Their chambray shirt is a great layering piece as well, giving you the freedom to wear it with a t-shirt underneath now, and a thin turtleneck underneath later.

If you want something a little more formal, there are some truly gorgeous dramatic blouses. Staud, a cult favorite brand known for their affordable purses, has a statement making blouse in a khaki-gold that we used for the header photo. Style it with cropped trousers and this season’s combat boots for a cooler angle, or your favorite go-to skinny jeans and ballet flats for a slightly more polished vibe. & Other Stories’s black mock-neck blouse is all drama, and lean into the 80s references with a pair of big crystal earrings because sometimes, more is more.
