How To Pull Off The Cropped Top

This fashion favourite is not just for dress-down days anymore

The cropped top made its humble debut in the late 80's, covering celebrities slouchily in the days of yore at times where they didn't feel like dressing up. Fast forward to 20 years later, the cropped top has boomed everywhere from the streets to the red carpet, and we must say: This is one piece that has evolved gracefully over time.

Layer it under a structured jacket for a sleek ensemble when the temperatures dip, or dress it under a sheer top for a modest yet sexy casual day getup. All you need is a toned and trimmed abdomen (all the more reason to drop the bag of chips and head for a run), and a whole lot of confidence (which you shouldn't leave your house without, no matter what you wear), and you're ready to seize the day in style!
