You’ve been sweating, grunting, and exercising and finally, you have (somewhat) summer-worthy abs. Thing is, you don’t want to hide your finally flattened tummy under a t-shirt and mom jeans. You can wear a crop top, no matter what your age if you know how to work it correctly. Here’s how to rock a crop top.
Be Understated
The crop top is sexy enough as it is, so there’s no need to ramp up the sex appeal. Don’t pair a crop top with a miniskirt or super short shorts. The resulting look will be less than flattering—and you’ll get a cringe-worthy reaction from your kids, too.
Be Uniform
You don’t want your crop top to clash with the rest of your outfit. So try to match the top to your bottom within the same color palette. You can even opt to use the same fabric texture. Not only will this add length to your look, but it will also give a cute peek-a-boo effect.
Be Fit-Conscious
To ensure that your crop top works with your outfit, it’s crucial that the top fits perfectly. You don’t want it too lose—or too tight. And don’t worry if you don’t have a perfect shape. As long as you have a proper fit, you can wear a crop top, no matter what your size.
Be High-Minded
The best way to rock a crop top is to pair it with a high-waisted skirt or pant. It will help provide a little extra coverage and give you a more sophisticated look.
Be Confident
The most important factor in wearing a crop top is how you feel wearing it. If you’re hunching or look awkward in your outfit, your crop top is not going to be a flattering look. So if you decide to wear one, make sure that you let your confidence shine!
