Off-the-shoulder anything made it big this year because they're a good update and upgrade to anyone's closet. From tops, dresses and even swimwear, the off-the-shoulder trend was, and still is, off the charts and I don't see why it shouldn't be the case because most women love their shoulders. Yes, girl, flaunt that collarbone!
In contrast to other popular trends this year, off-the-shoulder anything flatters a wide range of body types and I have come to realised that they make a good addition to my list of personal style staples.
While I am a staunch supporter of the quintessential oversized button-down shirt (I have more than 5 in my closet. hey, don't judge!), off-the-shoulder tops add a fresh spin to my everyday basics and mommy uniform outfits.
Off-the-shoulder dresses come in different styles and in different fabrics but my favorite has got to be one in a loose silhouette and made from cotton-blend material. It is so because they are very easy to style and are way more comfortable. I also love the little flounce they give when worn unlike those that are made from jersey material that just droops down in an unartistic way. Or maybe it's just me?
This DressLily off-the-shoulder dress is a new favorite and like all my other new favorites, this was submitted to heavy rotation last month. I recently wore this to a beach trip with the family because what better way to ace resort chic dressing than by whipping out a pretty off-the-shoulder, right?
Adding more styles of off-the-shoulder dresses in different prints to my closet this month to take advantage of DressLily's crazy November sale!
Also, how can you not love that bow-knot sleeves detail??

(Sfera) is a Spanish fashion brand under Madrid’s renowned El Corte Ingles Group of Companies and opened its very first store in Asia in the Philippines in 2014, at the heart of Metro Manila, on the second floor of SM Makati. In 2015, they opened stores at the 2nd Level Mega B of SM Megamall and in the new premium mall of the south, on the Upper Ground Floor of SM Seaside City Cebu. In September 2016, the brand opened up its first department store corner at The SM Store in SM Aura Premier, Bonifacio Global City, Taguig.
The premium fast-fashion brand offers clothing lines for Men and Women and is known for being able to stay on-trend every season while maintaining its good quality of clothing and rather affordable prices.
WOMEN’S COLLECTION
WOMEN’S COLLECTION: Fashion
The spontaneous mix-and-match of various prints and colors of fashion pieces in the Women’s Collection is once again brought back this season, after making a short cameo in the past Spring/Summer Collection. Exquisite tailoring, extravagant embroidery and leather straps are essential for an ostentatious bohemian look from DECADENT ROMANTICISM.
This trend is achieved in the mash-up of strong, tailored trousers & blazers, and the feminine floral shirts and crisp blouses with bell sleeves and ruffle details. The retro feel of the collection is emblazoned on each piece, giving it a worn-in, lived-in look in order to add a touch of glamour and quality.
Upholstery fabrics, large tweeds, floral prints with dark backgrounds, geometric patterns, and tiny print patches play a leading role in this trend. The leopard print cannot be forgotten in this collection, as it appears both boldly – in billowy trapeze dresses – and with subtlety –in pleated skirts and long coats.
CASUAL MEETS SPORTY is the most popular trend of the season, giving the entire collection a more modern look and feel. The fashionable but sporty aesthetic is evident in floral bomber jackets with sateen finish, knitted A- line skirts, formal trousers with a white stripe down the side, and various other technical garments.
The après-ski look, the usual street style look for mountainside sport activities, include funnel-neck tops and wide- ribbed jumpers. Black and white compose most of the collection’s color palette, but hints of cognac, burgundy, and navy are injected here and there among the pieces.
Bits of rock ‘n’ roll are inserted into several garments, such as tweed pants and metallic finishes that give off a more youthful look.
WOMEN’S COLLECTION: Casual
Four trends inspire the Casual department of the Women’s Collection:
a) BOHEMIAN GRUNGE
The grunge look is back with the essentials, such as skinny trousers, the Biker jacket, plaid shirts, ripped denim jeans, subtle lingerie, and combat boots. These pieces can be customized with embellishments, patches, or pop rock-style pins, giving them a more fun and relaxed touch.
b) CANAL SAINT-MARTIN
A relaxed, sporty style, with comfy fabrics and garments like the bomber jackets, varsity jackets, and cotton skirts and t-shirts are combined with floral prints and Breton stripes that are reminiscent of the young Parisian hangout, the Canal Saint-Martin.
c) KHAKI
The khaki color adds to a twist to more feminine garments and elements like lace, embroidery and pleats. Combined with the subdued color are military accessories like army buttons, skinny jeans that resemble cargo pants, and structured jackets.
d) MASCULINITY
Somber colors and textures such as tweed, stripes, and the Prince of Wales checker breathe life into maxi garments combined with mini skirts. The pantsuit ensemble is made more feminine in this collection as tulle, lace, and ruffles serve as subtle embellishments.
MEN’S COLLECTION
(Sfera) Men releases two new collections for the Fall/Winter 2016 Season:
CITY SUNSET
The newest color for Fall is the subdued tone of Camel, which is supported by khaki, renewed greens, ink blues, and mid-greys. Burnt orange highlights certain pieces from the collection. Outerwear, accompanied by overcoats and wool-blend fabric, present new shapes that drop into a structured, tailored fit that is ready for colder weather. Thick shirts and knitwear also make up the collection, in time for temperature drops on holiday travels.
FALL FOREST
Forest green and deep blue are the two main colors that make up this trend, mixed in with a light burgundy. Wool and cotton blend with technical fabrics for outerwear. New styles on outerwear emphasize collars and certain details, specifically on jumpers and jackets.
SMART SFERA MEN
In its most elegant line, the dominant colors are shades of blue and grey, which we find on shirts, sport coats, trousers, and knitwear. In terms of shape, the new trend is the knitted jacket with sport coat lapels and the band collar in shirts.
