BeckyB April Square Tops
I am hoping our April theme will keep our heads held high and help fill our lives with social connections and squares filled with joy….The theme is top, and you don’t have to go outside to find topping squares…Create your post with a square photograph

Nice blouse!
Thanks, but…um…no this isn’t a blouse…
Nice shirt?…
Well, not really…
Then…what?
It’s a TOP.
So how do you adequately explain what isn’t a blouse or a shirt exactly? I never could figure that out.
Perhaps it’s a gender thing. Not something I ever prefer to default to. However…
Defining a top is harder than you think. Especially to a guy whose wardrobe basically consists of: button down shirts that go with a tie, mock turtlenecks and short sleeve T-shirts. Technically, not a top to be found.
Whereas, I have plenty of examples….so fortunately explanations are no longer necessary. 🙂

Love your take on “top”.

Thank you Becky! I had fun with it (and must admit my husband encouraged the idea…seeing as he has heard all about “tops” for many years 😉)

I have no idea what the differences are between “top” and all the rest. I pretty much where T-shirts. 🙂 I don’t even know if I own a legitimate “top.” Hmmmm

It can definitely remain a mystery! A top or not a top…that is the question. 🙂

Maybe I should take photos and get some input there. 😀

Made me chuckle 🙂 I wondered if “top” was a regional term?

Not that I know of! I see it in major catalogues, but who knows 🙂

Since I just wear T-shirts I’m sadly out of the “fashion loop” 🙂 I used to wear “tunic tops” a lot, still have a few in the back of the closet 🙂

T-shirts are the easiest! I remember tunic tops – so comfortable. 🙂

Yep, I’m a T-shirt gal 🙂 I like the tunics but they have long sleeves, get in my way–or make me too warm 🙂

An excellent collection! I’ve noticed a few clothing companies putting skirts and trousers in the same category, called bottoms. It’s not quite a pet hate yet, but I always crinkle my nose at it.

Thank you. Mmmm…I don’t know that I think those are “bottoms” either. Um, no.

We could call shoes ‘leg bottoms’, but I can’t see that catching on! My sweetheart used to call them artificial paws when he was telling his old dog to wait while he put them on to take him for a walk.

I agree – shoes are…shoes. The “paws” term is a cute one though 🙂
