Do you love an open back style? 

It is understandable that as much as we love this rather secretly(?)j sexy style, you still need some courage or special event to pull this off. That said, as much as we love celebrities and stars, we need to understand and appreciate that they bare all for the sake of our entertainment and their fame comes with the price. Look at the Met Gala for example. Simply say, no pain no gain. 

Before I get too carried away and silly for an open back style introduction, let's go back to the style talk. A lot of times, actually most of the time, our backs are underrated, hidden under the garment. Socially speaking, showing your back to someone isn't generally a good manner, however in this case, feel free to show your hidden asset!  Especially now when the weather is heating up and it is a perfect time to un-curtain and flaunt your hidden asset - sexy back! 

Whether it is a deep plunging open back dress or shirt, it is fun, sensual and stylish, and a great way to vent your hotness(?) when it is too hot to handle. 

When talking about styling an open back style, leave the front side design rather plain and simple, or even fully closed so that the front and back sides do not complete. Too much or too little revealing will fail to impress looking rather trying too hard or not enough.

All said, I really love this street style with a cute lacing open back blouse,  folded/cropped jeans or wide leg pants, and a pair of mule slides. Add some bohemian tassel earrings, a simple flap bag to add finishing touch to this around the town and carefree style. Jeans are great for almost everything but all kinds of wide leg pants and flowy skirts, both solid color or prints work here. As for the shoes, stick with flats - slides, ballet flats or espadrilles to keep the look rather casual than all dressed up.
