Want to add a dash of sass to your spring 2012 wardrobe?
Try a bralet top.
The lingerie inspired piece, spied on the runways of Dolce & Gabbana, Jason Wu, and more, can be worn alone or under a shirt for a bit of saucy sophistication. Rihanna and Solange toed the trend last summer, and now bralets have resurged at affordable prices and in a series of prints and fun colors.
Take a look at how a few of our favorite celebs have rocked ‘em:
And get the look here:
What do you think? Will you try it?

only a certain types of body types can pull this off, I can’t really see plus sized or overly busty girls doing this..

It’s a no for me, but cute for the right body type.

Under a pretty, sheer flowy top instead of the traditional tank top…on a Saturday, but not during the work week!

I bought a vintage one last summer but haven’t found the right high waisted skirt/shorts to wear with it. Or for that matter the right occassion, since I live in conservative DC

I think it would lovely on a plus-size woman that isn’t top heavy with a high waist pair of pants.

Yes yes yes! I’ve been rocking these for years. Usually under a blazer or an unbuttoned button down. I’m looking for a sparkly one for a bachelorette party?????

Luv the look for summertime, but I’m almost 30 not sure if it’s a good look. :(
April 24, 2012 2:44 pm
I’m definitely doing this. I’ve been wanting to do it forever since I have small breasts and flat stomach to pull it off. Just haven’t found a bra/bustier top of my liking. Don’t care for the ones up top.

Love this look. I like that all the examples you showed wore high-waisted bottoms, it`s a balanced look, not too much exposure going on. It really does give a more sophisticated feel that way.
Also, I adore that last pic of Solange, really beautiful.
