Never thought I’d be a crop-top wearer, but looky here: I am. Not quite ready to bare my midriff, but find that throwing a cropped top over a simple dress creates some fun proportions and cute layers. Lots of dresses out there with layered looks to them, but re-creating the look can be cheaper: If you don’t own crop tops, consider cropping and hemming an old tee. Mix and match with various dresses.
This necklace was a gift from the lovely folks at Mark Defrates, and is the same compass star shape you may have seen tattooed on my foot. (No? Here you go.) It’s a symbol I’ve loved for a long time since it represents guidance, but also self-reliance. Helps, too, that it’s just plain cool looking.
