Crop Top Obsession


Since I started this blog, I vouched to myself that I will keep an open mind about fashion. So far, so good. I have been actively seeking out new and timeless trends that I can incorporate into my wardrobe. One of them is the crop top trend. I know that it takes a lot of guts and body confidence to be able to pull off a crop top. Not to say that I have oozing body confidence but it is all about playing with your assets to make the whole outfit work. 



Top: SheInside / Pants: Jag Jeans / Necklace: Sheinside / Shoes: Mendrez (similar)

This red scalloped crop top is from Sheinside. When I saw this on the website, I was debating as to whether or not I should buy it. I was attracted to the color and the scalloped detailing on the hem but I was not sure if I can pull off the crop top look. But I took a leap of faith and decided to order the top. When I got the item, I heaved a sigh of relief because it wasn't too low (which I feared). The hem just hangs right around the navel, which was just what I wanted or could dare. It bared just enough tummy but never too much.


Would you dare to wear a crop top?

  4. That is a such a lovely outfit! I totally know what you mean about "daring" to wear a crop top. It' such a scary idea to show my tummy!! :/

  12. So cute! The red crop top looks great on you, unfortunatly when I try and wear them I look like a bit of a line backer due to my broad shoulders. I love the light wash of these jeans though!

  13. This is the perfect crop top length! I definitely wouldn't want one that shows too much.

  14. I love this! You look great! I love crop tops too. My balance is to wear one with a longer skirt so it shows skin but doesn't. XOXO

  17. Ahhh, so glad you got the crop top; it looks FANATSTIC on you, and the color is gorgeous! I've been obsessing over the crop top trend for a while now, but I've only dared wear it with high waisted stuff because my tummy isn't exactly an asset, hahaha. Keeping one's mind open to fashion is such an important thing and I love that you're perpetuating it! <3

  19. I think you look great in the crop top! You're right, so much of it is about body confidence. You balance showing a little bit of skin well with the jeans. Personally, I don't like to show a ton of skin so I like the balance.

  20. I really love that you've pushed your boundaries with regard to fashion - I love crop tops but rarely wear them out. The colour of this one massively suits you and the scalloped edging is lovely!
