5 Ways to Wear The Crop Top

by Samantha Jaconi

Newsflash: The crop top is back and it’s not going going anywhere anytime soon.

If you’re anything like us, you’re loving the this chic piece for it’s ability to highlight the smallest part of your frame. But we know that this cropped silhouette can be a bit daunting when you think about styling it.

While it is the perfect partner to high-rise skirts and pants, how to wear it for other settings is a little bit more of a question mark. Well, to give you a little guidance, we created a short list of how to wear the décolletage-baring piece so you can wear it anywhere today.

Keep reading for your crop top how-to guide. Then, go a bit further to shop the seasons favorite shirt!

For weekends, we like the crop top best with white jeans and sandals. Team with a long sleeved lightweight sweater to avoid showing too much skin.

Wear with a shoulder baring black hairpin-lace cropped top with tailored pants for a more casual approach or team with a kimono sweater and midi skirt for a more after-dark chic. For an ultra chic look, be sure to line yours with nude or black underpinnings.

Play with proportions and pair your crop top with a midi skirt or wide-leg linen pants. Add leg-lengthening appeal with platform sandals.

For a red carpet affair, keep lines streamlined by sticking to a single color, and pairing the crop top with a floor length sweeping skirt, wear it above or at your natural waist to accentuate the slimmest part of your waist.

Since the crop top focuses on the waist – cover your midriff at the office by pairing the top with a high-waisted pencil skirt, keeping this look polished and ladylike. For an even more structured look, style it with a matching skirt.
