I'd be lying if I said this risqué trend wasn't at the top of my buying list, despite the fact that the lingerie-inspired design is nothing new. It's already a seductive top, but with updated versions that feature underwire busts, puff sleeves, vibrant patterns, and cozier fabrics, this fad is too irresistible to pass up.
