Choked Up

Meet your new wardrobe staple: the choker tee.

If there's one fashion trend that's not going away any time soon, it's the return of the 90's. From track pants and flannel, to Doc Martins and crop tops, 90's throwbacks have been all over the runways & have definitely made their way into everyday street style.

Hands down though, my favorite comeback from this defining era has got to be the choker. It's the perfect piece to add a touch of boho flair to any look, and all you have to do is skim a site like Forever 21 to see that there are SO MANY affordable options out there right now. From thick statement pieces of velvet or cotton, to daintier metallics great for layering, there truly is a style for everyone looking to try one out.

Want to take it one step further? A choker top like the one I'm wearing above is a great way to spruce up your off-duty wardrobe. Think of it as the cooler, sexier cousin of your go-to white tee. This one in particular is a recent favorite because it's super soft, just the right amount of slouchy and literally goes with every damn thing I own. The best part? It's under $16. Oh and it comes in two colors and even plus sizes. So what are you waiting for? It's not going to buy itself... ;)
