SHADES OF
Make any day feel like a special occasion. Champagne is a delightful, creamy color that includes very pale tints of yellow and orange. Just like its bubbly namesake, this color sparks joy. Light and airy, this satin long sleeve top has a luxurious feel. The V-shaped neckline can spotlight stacked gold chains or a shimmering pendant. Delicate satin-covered buttons and puffed details at the wrist give this shirt a festive style. For a cool blend of texture, pair it with a vegan leather mini. The patchwork pattern combines lighter and darker cream shades to add geometric style and balance. Finish the look by twisting your hair into a sleek updo, or wear it in loose waves with a headband.
