5 Ways to Wear the Crop Top
How to wear the crop top to work or to school properly? In the spring/summer 2014 season you will have the opportunity to wear the most original crop top designs ever. If last year you haven’t paid them enough attention, it’s high time to get oriented towards these designs. The 90’s style has truly imposed itself this season and crop tops are as imposed as they can get. In all variations of colors and textures, crop tops are ideal for cool outfits with a slightly rebellious flair. The only thing you need to consider is your figure, but if you worked hard for your perfectly tones abdomen, there’s no reason to avoid the crop top. Once you’ve ticked this box, you can begin your search for the perfect crop top, t-shirt, tank, with a perfect view to your midriff. Designer proposals for this season are crafted to suit every taste and personality. From bustier designs, to loose pieces you will find the funniest prints, messages and even elegant pieces, all with a length that allows showing off a few inches of skin. Depending on the style you prefer you can choose one of the proposed options to fit your everyday outfits. The sporty chic gal If you’re a fan of the sporty chic style, you should choose a loose fitting crop top. Wear it with long sweatpants, a pair of sneakers or flats and a classic bag. If you’re more on the daring side try an over the shoulder bag, brought back into attention this season by all major designers. Gwen Stefani and Selena Gomez are rocking this trend, while Vanessa Hudgens is spicing things up a bit with a rhinestone encrusted army hat.
The smart casual type If you’re a fan of the smart casual style, your crop top will go hand in hand with a pair of high waisted skinny jeans. For some added effect you can wear it with a pair of flats, even slippers or moccasins, an oversized jacket in a light texture and an over the shoulder type bag. Georgia May Jagger travels in style in her printed crop top and skull jacket, while Selena Gomez is very stylish in her white lace crop top. Check out Vanesa Hudgens for some inspiration, she has this trend completely covered.
The feminine princess Are you usually relying on your feminine side? The crop top is the perfect piece to do that. Medium, ample skirts, that go below the knee, just above the calf, are ideal in this combination. The tight high waist of these skirts are perfectly complemented by the crop top’s short length (choose a design with a more loose fit). Don’t forget to add a pair of stilettos with the highest heels you can find. Freida Pinto looks very girly in her printed outfit. You can also get some inspiration from Brooklyn Decker’s flirty skirt or Diane Kruger’s feminine look.
The sexy vixen Are you rather on the sexy side of things? For a night out, you can easily choose a tight crop top, even with a low cut. However, choose simple, black cigarette pants. Minimalist sandals with straps are the final detail for a fashionable look. Rihanna is the queen of this look. You can easily get some inspiration from her stylish ensembles or you can turn to Rita Ora, and go with a leather version.
The toned down sexy kitten Sticking in the same area of style, for more casual after-office activities, you can replace your pants with a tight skirt. Choose a crop top in the same color. Opt for statement accessories, a pair of sandal boots and a metallic clutch to complete your look. Kylie Jenner looks very stylish in her nude outfit, while Erin Wasson and Selena Gomez are all about sex appeal.
