Crop tops have been back in style for a few years now and for the time being, they’re here to stay. Itty bitty versions of normal tops might seem difficult to pull off, but they’re surprisingly versatile and can look good on anyone. Crop tops exemplify fashion resilience. Case in point: They majorly worked it out in the 1980s cult classic Flashdance; they showed off Madonna’s washboard abs time and time again; and they regularly clothed (we use the term loosely) our favorite teen idols Britney, Christina, and the Spice Girls. Wearing a crop top doesn’t mean putting on a bralette and low-rise jeans. I mean, unless you want to look like Christina Aguilera circa 2002. If so, that’s fine. Go for it. But today’s crop top trend is a little bit more covered up. The best way to wear a daytime-appropriate crop top is with something high-waisted. You can show a sliver of your stomach above your belly button, or if you’re daring, more than a sliver. The point is, it shouldn’t look like you’re headed to the beach. It should look chic and cool.
