STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK: Cream Of The Crop

July 8th, 2015 at 2:06am

When talking about current trends in fashion, the crop top is all the rage. It can be seen everywhere from runways to red carpets, and is even showing up on the wedding isle! But it is nothing new. Crop tops were a staple item throughout the ’80s and ’90s. Many girls used to pair a crop top with low-rise skirts, shorts or pants, therefore, buying into the trend of showing more skin. Today’s trend leans more toward the “less is more” side of the spectrum. This makes the crop top trend not as scary to pull off and can be worn to almost every occasion. It is time to rev-up your abs workout again because it appears this trend will be here to stay!

This Fashionista is wearing a floral, cropped tank top with a high-waisted, navy blue skirt. The pleats on the skirt add a feminine touch to this edgy look and also flows beautifully when she walks. To keep it understated, she added a wide-brimmed fedora and some simple jewelry. Her minimal, neutral makeup completes this look. This outfit is appropriate to wear out to lunch or even to a music festival.

What is your STYLE ADVICE OF THE WEEK? “I look for a crop top that hits a little above the top of a high-waisted pant or skirt and wear it with a pair of casual flats so it doesn’t  look too sexy. If I don’t want to show as much midriff, I just add a long, simple cardigan.”
