Crop It Like It's Hot

The crop top is definitely having a fashion moment. This trend may be intimidating at first glance, but it's all in what you wear it with. My favorite look is a crop top paired with a high waisted skirt or high waisted pants.

Rebecca (above) can rock any trend with her oh-so brave and daring personality.  And this is why I love to play stylist with my future daughter in-law.

My personal style leans more modest and to be honest, I would not want to pull on my top all day for the fear of someone catching a glimpse at my washboard abs. I'm also not in my twenties anymore, so, I found other ways to keep it modest, yet current:

~ Layer a crop over a longer shirt for a modest approach.

~ Choose a less dramatic crop and pair it with high waisted pants. This keeps the silhouette but keeps your skin shown to a minimum. 

~ Wear two pieces with the same pattern with the break at the crop. This creates the right amount of interest, yet it is still pretty modest.

What are your thoughts on the crop top trend? Hot or Not?
