Ruffles are back in style–and in a big way. But don't be discouraged. I know the first thing that comes to mind when we hear the word ruffles are the little girl dresses we were all forced to wear when we were little. However, the girly detail seems to be making its way onto tops, dresses, and even shoes! These oversized frills make a serious statement and can instantly glam up any look. Just make sure to go for cuts and fabrics that help focus the attention away from those trouble spots. Check out a few of my favorite fun ruffle pieces, with tips on how to rock them!
