Our Stylist Loves: Cropped Tops

Our Stylist Loves Cropped Tops

 

Crops are everywhere this season (especially concerts and festivals), and they’ve come a long way since their first heyday in the 80’s. While this belly-baring look may not be for everyone, a crop top isn’t as tricky to rock as it may seem. Layer it up by throwing on a blazer to add a touch of sophistication, or make a style statement by wearing one with a high-waisted skirt. If you’ve got it, flaunt it. The most important thing: Wear what makes you comfortable.
