Piko shirts are definitely one of fall's must-have in your wardrobe. These lightweight, comfortable, stylish, and AFFORDABLE tops are very versatile. Paired with sweats, jeans, skirts, or leggings, piko shirts look amazing with everything. I always like to have my basic colors (white, black, beige/tan) in shirts like this and use accessories to add pops of color. But these shirts are honestly SO comfortable and look great in any color that I've been splurging on any color I can find. The simplicity of the piko shirt does not come off as sloppy or like you just threw on any old thing because you were in a hurry. Ladies, this top is one that is going to be around for a while because of its chameleon-like adaptability. Piko shirts blend beautifully with whatever style of dress you are trying to achieve, whether it be casual, sophisticated, dressy, professional, or edgy.
How would you wear your piko shirt? With some jeans or slacks? That's the normal response; but there are literally infinite ways to wear this top. These are my top 5 personal favorite ways to style/wear your piko shirt.
1. Keep it Simple with Leggings or Jeans
Remember, less is more. Piko tops are chic enough to pair with boots, sandals, or wedges for a dressed up or casual look.
2. Accessorize with jewelry or scarves
I love a nice chunky over sized scarf is the best accessory for any season. Lightweight in the warm months and knitted when it's cold, a scarf really brings a whole outfit together. For a more sophisticated style, try a bubble or teardrop necklace. Long chain necklaces are a nice touch to up the elegance of the outfit.
3. Tuck It In
Pull an outfit together by tucking your piko top into your bottoms, whether they be jeans, slacks, shorts, or a skirt. These tops can be very baggy and hide your curves. Tucking it in will create the illusion of a defined waistline or show off your vivacious figure.
4. Tunics
This style is one of my favorites. Piko tops come in a variety of lengths and even as dresses. For the fall, the longer tunics are adorable with a pair of knee high boots or wedges. To accentuate your waistline, add a belt to cinch the dress/tunic.
5. Layered
Cardigans, jackets, or shawls add a layer of dimension to your piko top. You can mix and match colors for a bold statement. Do too many layers make you hot? Me too. Luckily, piko tops do come in short sleeves and are of a very lightweight material which feels like you have nothing on.
Piko tops are for every and any body type...even if you're pregnant! These make wonderful maternity tops because they're over sized, baggy, and comfortable. And you don't have to shop in the maternity section for pikos. Feel good about your style and what you wear.
