Summer Clothing, Summer Wear

Trendy summer fashion tops for women are fluid in drape, bursting with bold, luscious floral design and longer in length, which will no doubt thrill the average woman. J. Jill is featuring textures like silk linen, onionskin and dreamy soft jersey. These are just a few of the 2009 sizzling summer fabric trends in tops, which the stylish female will be on the lookout for this year.

This is a guide to five of the hottest tops for summer wear. I have also provided a link to each company’s website where all these fashionable items are available for online purchase.

3- ) Coldwater CreekMistress of Disguise Cardigan Pullover in Rayon/Nylon

Effortless in black and white, but daring in a “woodblock art” pattern, this summer cardigan fools the eye of the casual observer. It looks to be a two-pieced tank and cardigan complete with buttons, but is actually a white panel sewed into the top, which makes it a wonderful piece of clothing to slip on and go. You can easily wear this top to the office or to dinner. Sophistication has its price and this trendy summer top will cost you $79.50. It is available in Misses and Women’s sizes.

4 – ) Soft Surroundings® – Angel Sleeve Surplice Top in Cotton/Modal

There is no top to compare, which is as summer-friendly, fashionable and ultra feminine as Soft Surroundings’ gorgeous Angel Sleeve knit top. Superior softness in texture, the top has a v-necked front and back and three-quarter billowy angel sleeves with tonal, slightly shiny trim. A figure-flattering ruche graces the left side of this marvelous pullover top. It comes in basic black and white, but you can also step up in fashion with summery “grass’ or “berry” colors. The price starts at $69.00 and is available in Misses and Women’s sizes.

5- ) Monterey Bay clothing company®Seasons of Light Tunic in Cotton Gauze

Machine washable, light cotton gauze and a 29″ length, makes this sleeveless tunic a dream piece of trendy summer clothing. Add to this favorable mix an asymmetrical cut enhanced by three delightful coconut buttons and side slits and you have a carefree, but optimal top to upgrade your wardrobe. You can buy the tunic in never-out-of season black or white; or the company’s version of poppy, which appears to be on the salmon side of pink.
