6 Classy Ways to Rock a Crop Top

It’s time to accept it: crop tops aren’t going anywhere anytime soon. They’re on the runways, they’re in the stores, and they’re rocked by midriff-baring collegiettes everywhere. But how can you show off this trend without showing off too much skin? Here is our collegiette-approved list of ways to rock a crop top and still keep it classy.

1. “A” for Effort

Keep it ladylike by pairing your crop top with a pretty A-line skirt. Pair your look with some wedges to dress it up.

 

2. Tailor Made

Bring some structure to your outfit with a pair of tailored shorts. Just be sure to pick a pair with a high waistband.

 

3. Trail Blazer

Get trendy by wearing a men’s cut blazer over your crop top. Pretty and professional!

 

4. Pencil Me In

Pick a pencil skirt to wear with your crop top for a look of sleek sophistication. It will make the perfect pairing for a classy night out.

 

5. Sheer Brilliance

For a more modest approach, layer a sheer blouse over a fitted crop top. Nothing is more alluring than a little mystery. 

 

6. (High) Waist Land

Show off just a touch of tummy by paring your crop top with a pair of high-waisted pants. Try it with some jean skinnies, or play your top up with a pair of sophisticated trousers.
