Warming Up to the Cold Shoulder
When you hear the phrase “cold shoulder,” you probably think about the metaphor defined as “to snub or show indifference.” Well, it’s time to say goodbye to the old meaning, and say hello to the fun, flirty style of the cold shoulder look!
What Is A Cold Shoulder?
The cold shoulder, also known as the peek-a-boo or open shoulder, is a type of sleeve that incorporates bare shoulders with any type of sleeve length. If you are looking to show off some shoulder, but not a fan of sleeveless, this is the perfect choice for you! It adds a pop of personality to any top and can easily blend from day to night. Just like most fashion trends this style isn’t exactly new. Some of the earliest examples of the cold shoulder sleeve are from the 1930’s by fashion designer Chanel. Donna Karan briefly brought the style back in the early 90’s, and the trendy look has returned to stay thanks to the numerous ways to wear it.
As the name suggest, the style takes the old metaphor of giving someone the “cold shoulder” and flips it in a positive way to show off a feature that looks great at any age. The best part? With Cottonways 100% preshrunk cotton, your cold shoulder look will be breathable, durable and perfectly blend fashion with comfort.
