If you were asking yourself, what piece of clothing can help you appear cool and like you have an effortless sense of style, the answer is – cowl neck tops.
The cowl neck top experienced the peak of glory when Paris Hilton wore the metallic cowl neck dress for her 18th birthday. Do you remember those days?
Nowadays the cowl neck clothes are present in more casual forms, such as sweaters and tops, but they can also be worn for more elegant occasions. It all depends on the materials that they are made of.
When you decide to buy the cowl neck pieces, it is very important to choose a good material. That way you can be sure that your cowl neckline will fall in a good way. You should choose light and flowy materials if you want the neckline to fall like a scarf.
In this post, we will see how you can mix the cowl neck tops made of different fabrics with other clothes, such as pants, skirts and other.

You can wear this cowl neck with good pair of skinny jeans. For evening events you can combine it with a pencil skirt or black pants.
The thing that makes it interesting is the cascade ruffle on one shoulder, while you get a draped cowl neck on the other. When it comes to jewelry, I suggest to leave out the necklace, because of the ruffle on the top. Instead, put on a nice gold bracelet and couple of rings.
