25th Jul 2019

At Four Seasons Direct, we make it our mission to bring all the latest fashions to women all across the country of every shape and size. We make sure to stock the hottest trends and styles, with enough variety to fit in with any wardrobe. This mission of ours absolutely extends to the well-loved style of tunic tops. Here at Four Seasons Direct, you’ll find the perfect tunic tops to wear over leggings for every occasion and body type under the sun.

Tunic tops are fitted at the top but wide and free-flowing at the bottom, creating an elegant and graceful feminine silhouette. This style is extremely versatile and can be found just about everywhere from office buildings to grocery stores and corner cafés. They’re easy and comfortable to put on and still look great, and you can completely transform your look with a few choice accessories. Once you learn the tricks to pulling off your tunic tops, you’ll never want to wear anything else!

The first thing to figure out when you’re beginning your search for tunic tops to wear over leggings is what body type you have. We carry beautiful tunic tops in all sizes, from petite to missy to plus, but the shape of your body will affect the way your tunic top looks when you wear it. Petite ladies with short legs will want shorter tunics so as not to elongate their torsos. Ladies with wide hips will want longer tunics with slits in the sides to maintain the flowy look and flatter their natural shape. Take a moment to look yourself over in the mirror and find where the curves of your body are and what your natural silhouette is. Once you know how your body is shaped, you’ll be able to understand how different clothing cuts will look on it and which styles are the most flattering.

At Four Seasons Direct, we have a full collection of tunic tops of all cuts and styles so that every woman can find just the right piece for her wardrobe. Once you know your body type, you can choose the best cut to flatter and flaunt the parts you love and hide the parts you don’t. V-necks are a great style for drawing attention to your shoulders, for example, which makes them perfect for women with wider hips they need to balance out. Boat necks will also draw attention up, which makes them a favorite of women with more weight in the stomach area. Meanwhile, ladies with slender shoulders can really shine in off-the-shoulder tunics, which make for beautiful, summery looks. Of course, you’ll also find collared tunic tops for dressier looks and cozy zip up and flannel tunics to keep you cozy in the cooler months!

After the neckline come the sleeves. This factor depends more on what your plans for your outfit are rather than your body shape. You’ll find tanks, short sleeves, and long sleeves in our collection, along with a few fashion-forward styles like puffy bell sleeves. As a rule of thumb, the shorter the sleeve the more casual the look, but there are ways around that. A tank style tunic top can easily be dressed up with the right accessories to make an elegant and classy outfit. For the best results, start with a solid color tank – classic neutrals like white or black are perfect for this. Then add a simple, thick necklace, either silver or gold and long enough to rest against the fabric of the tunic. Wedges are the ideal dress shoe to wear when you’re choosing dressy tunic tops to wear over leggings, but be aware of the visual weight they’ll add to the bottom of your look.

For more dressy tunic top looks, pay careful attention to the fabric types available. You’ll find plain and print styles in cotton and knits as well as sheer, silky, and even lace fabrics which work wonderfully for a more formal look. As far as prints go, we have many beautiful and formal patterns, such as floral designs, as well as more graphic prints, which tend to have a more casual look to them. And of course, you’ll always find plain solid color tunics as well. After all, tunic tops work so well as a basic staple to build your wardrobe off of!
