How to Wear Peasant Tops Beautifully for Spring, Summer & Transitional Weather Too!

Welcome to my brainstorming session on how to wear peasant tops, beautifully and in different ways! I came up with almost 30 outfit ideas here for spring, summer and the transition to fall. If you know of ways to wear them in winter, I’d love to know. You can leave a reply below this post to share your inspirations with us — the more creative the better. Age doesn’t matter.

Peasant tops are easy to wear through three seasons because they come in so many colors, materials, prints and patterns. You’ll find them in sheer, silk, lace, eyelet, gauze, and durable cotton materials. They come in black, white, solid colors, chambray, stripes, tropical motifs, autumn leaf prints and more.

Embroidery is a common feature, giving these tops exotic interest.

The more feminine designs with details such as chiffon, ruffles and lace go easily from day to night.

There are many ways to wear peasant tops in spring and summer, so I started with that. Then I followed up with how to wear them for fall transitional weather, which I will definitely want to try this autumn. I hope the ideas below will help you to come up with new outfits that make your true self shine!
