How to Wear: Crop Tops

After finding myself in possession of many crop tops that I've never worn, I decided to set off on a mission to find out how to best wear a crop top.

Different styles of crop tops may go with different pieces better, make sure you know what kind you have or are looking for. The most popular types of crop tops are...

Popular Crop Top Types

The one thing that makes crop tops so hard to work with is their shape. Usually they are very loose or tight, so you need other pieces in the outfit to counter that.

Try pairing a basic crop top with jean shorts, a denim skirt, or a bodycon skirt.
