How to Wear a Sleeveless Blouse



When the weather is warm, a sleeveless blouse can be a good choice to keep you feeling cool and looking polished at the same time. Pick a sleeveless blouse that flatters you, and then add different accessories to change the look so that you can wear it anywhere.







Things You'll Need:





Sleeveless blouse



Cardigan



Blazer



Smooth bra



Clear deodorant



Scarf









Step
1



Decide what color blouse will work for you. Do you need a neutral choice you can mix with anything or do you prefer a brighter color, such as sapphire blue, that will make an outfit pop?




Step
2



Determine what fabric will be best. For casual occasions, a crisp cotton blouse can be a very good choice. For work and dress-up, you may want something more polished or with a sheen to the finish.




Step
3



Check the cut of the armholes to see if they work with your shape. You don't want them to gap too much, or your bra will show through.




Step
4



Wear a smooth bra underneath so the blouse will lay flat and smooth on your chest.




Step
5



Try different cuts on your shoulders. For a sexier look, you might select a shirt that bares more, while a more conservative blouse will come to your natural shoulder line.




Step
6



Make a sleeveless blouse work appropriate my pulling a blazer or cardigan over it. Then take over the top layer to be ready for dinner out or a cocktail party.




Step
7



Look for special details to make the blouse standout, such as pearlized buttons, a loose necktie or jeweled or sequin accents. This can add some interest to your outfit and can work with nice pants or a dressy skirt.




Step
8



Consider a sleeveless blouse that buttons in the back and has a cowl neck for a classy, conservative look.




Step
9



Wear a sleeveless blouse with a collar underneath a thin sweater to make it work in the winter.
