Every girl should have a crop top. Why? Because they’re damn comfy. Whether it’s a sexy bralette or a button-down blouse, cropped pieces are perfect for Singapore’s unforgiving weather. Ahead, we show you how you can bare your torso in style. You’re welcome.

Denim-on-denim is a classic combination that gets an instant dose of sexiness when paired with a crop top. Stars like Gigi and Bella Hadid are known for wearing this exact outfit, so don’t be afraid to channel your inner model the next time you leave the house.

In your 20s and 30s, basic crop tops might not speak to your soul as much as ones with prints and ruffles do. Such details take your shirt game to the next level. (That level: sophistication.) Take a cue from style influencer Caroline Daur and rock contrasting top and bottom prints.

Don’t let busy prints and bright colors overwhelm your frame. Break up the look by revealing a hint of skin via a black cropped tee. This is also the perfect scenario in which to show off those toned abs, courtesy of SoulCycle.

An easy way to wear a crop top without feeling risqué is to layer it over another shirt. Consider this the genius work-around for wearing cropped anything in the office.

Crop tops and maxi skirts go together like peanut butter and jelly. The combination gives the illusion of a longer torso, since the skirt sits high on the hips. And if you want to take this daytime look up a notch, simply add heels.

Good news: You don’t have to donate your childhood favorites—denim overalls, ofc—to Goodwill once you hit 25. The key to nailing this look as an adult is to find pieces that fit and flatter yourfigure.

Go bold or go home. Try a cropped top in a bright hue. To take things up a notch, pair it with another striking coloured bottom.
