The Crop Top

So I know the crop top isn't a hit with every fashionista but for me personally it is a DO! When I first saw the crop top trend emerging about a year ago I thought to myself "ugh short skirts with a crop top, how gross!" and I still kinda believe that... but what I do love is the crop top when its paired with a longer skirt. Whether it be a fitted pencil skirt or a fuller A-line skirt, theres something about the addition of a crop top that allows the perfect amount of skin to be shown that makes the outfit sexy but not skanky. 
I bought a black t-shirt crop top last summer and really loved pairing it with my neon pencil skirts from J Crew because it gave me a reason to wear a pencil skirt out on a Friday night without looking like I didn't have time to change after I got home from the office. Now I definitely want to expand my crop top collection this summer with hopefully a navy striped one or a white one similar to the ones pictured below. 
Pinterest has so many wonderful fashion photos featuring the crop top giving me plenty of inspiration for when the weather (hopefully) gets nicer. I think all the photos I included shows that the crop top can be a versatile piece and a great addition to anyones wardrobe thats brave enough to try it out.








So heres the million dollar question, would you wear a crop top?
Is the crop top a DO or a DONT in your book?

  1. I really like how the crop top looks on other people but I feel like it's something I can't really pull off.

  4. Love these examples! I've always been impressed seeing other girls in them, but haven't taken the leap myself yet. I think it's time.. {especially with the inspiration of the first pic}

  5. I wish I had the body for a crop top, I think it looks great (if done right as you point out).

  7. I like to see the crop top on other people but on me is a major NO, I don´t know...maybe because i´m too short? it´s just something that doesn´t work for me :(.

    When you get a sec, I would love to hear your thoughts on my latest. See you around.
