V-neck Sweaters, Tops and T-shirts

… Why V-Necks Are The Most Flattering Neckline You Can Ever Wear

V-neck Top from Macy's

If you want to look like you've lost 10 pounds then you wear V-neck t-shirts, sweaters and tops. I don't care how fashionable scoopnecks are, V-necks are more flattering. They add definition and length to your face and upper body. They're sexy but basic (and I wear them almost every day). They're simply chic!

A V-neck is a Fabulous Option Because:

Slims down your body's upper half -- awesome if you have a heavy upper part/short waist/thick waist/etc.
Exposes your feminine and beautiful décolletage
(part between your neck and bust line)
Flatters your chest -- fab if you have a great pair of breasts
Flatters your face shape -- especially if you have a round/wide face
Elongates your neck -- deep V-neck does wonders

Really! V-necks do all those things to all shapes.

How to Buy V-neck T-Shirts and Tops

Choose versatile colors

Mini notebook icon Regular or low-cut? I usually divide v-necks into regular and low cut. Regular v-necks are pretty universal and work with anything. However, I think you might like the low (sometimes called deep) v-neck as it can really balance out and slim your shape by showing more skin. I don't know about you, but I think low-cuts can display a good cleavage without looking tacky. Also, you can wear a cute cami or tank top beneath it for a casual layering look. You can show off the trim of top.

Tip: If you want to cover up your cleavage or just want to layer your outfit -- add a camisole beneath it. But make sure the camisole has a neckline that sits high to be slightly seen at the same time low enough to avoid cutting your neckline in half.

Mini notebook icon How v-necks affect your face shape. If your face shape is round/wide/square the V-shaped opening simply creates an illusion of a slim face and you'll get a pointy chin. So snap up on V-neck sweaters, tops and dresses!

But if you have an Inverted Triangular, Heart or Diamond face shape. The V-neck will enhance your pointy chin that naturally comes with your face shape. You can either wear a v-neck to emphasize the shape of your facial shape or switch to a scoop neck.

Your V-neck Essentials

So what type of V-neck clothes do you really need to stay covered throughout the year?

Secure Your Wardrobe with These 4 Essential V-Necks

	Camis and Tank Tops Regular cut camis are worn for toning down a cleavage or beneath a see-through blouse. Lower cut camis can be transformed into a sleek party outfit with accessories. V-neck camis look good with a sweater without the bulk around the shoulders. Note: For extra comfort and support, try seamless camis with built-in bra.
	Short Sleeve T-Shirts I recommend choosing fitted tees for all shapes. It skims the shape of your upper body in a flattering way. So avoid boxy t-shirts as they tend to have sleeves that can make your shoulders look bulky. Note: Cap sleeves look best on women with toned arms.
	Long Sleeve Tees Choose between full length or 3/4 sleeves. If you are petite in shape or have short arms, I recommend the 3/4 sleeves to visually elongate your arms. This is highly recommended if you choose to wear it alone with a pair of pants or skirt. Showing a little skin will make you look taller.
	High-Quality Fitted V-neck Sweaters Pick fitted V-neck sweaters in high quality, durable and comfy fabric like cashmere or merino wool blends.
