Here's my outfit for this sunny, spring day! I haven't done an OOTD post in ages!
Excuse little Lucy in the background!
My whole outfit is from New Look today! Skinny jeans, peep toe shoes and top - all New Look. Sunglasses from Marks & Spencer
My top tips for crop tops:
- Get it over-sized and loose. Ignore what the label says!
- Make sure it doesn't come up over your boobs when you life your arms up!
Sorry for the funny angle this was taken at! Makes my waist look really odd!
- Try to get one with a longer back - no bum cleavage or wobbly side bits showing!
- If you're shy, wear over a plain body and denim shorts, or wear with high-waisted trousers/shorts to show less tummy and to hold in the hips!
What do you think of crop tops? Have I just committed a fashion crime or do you want one too?

You look fab - I really like the crop tops that New Look has in at the moment. When I first heard they were coming back "in" I got a little worried and had flashbacks to the Spice Girls in the 90s but loose crop tops like yours look fab and are definitely summery! x
ReplyDeleteAww thank you very much. I'm really loving it... except when the wind caught it earlier... whoosh over my bra!
ReplyDeleteYou look really pretty! :) And I want your hair SO MUCH! xx
ReplyDeleteYeah I agree - tight crop tops don't suit anyone except a spice girl but loose ones are much easier to pull off xxx
ReplyDeleteAww thank you! *blushes* xxx

I think crop tops are ok if they are loose like the one you've got :) I saw a girl out over Christmas in a crop top...it was a mint green wooly affair and skin tight...not flattering! And she wore it with a furry bolero jacket!!!
ReplyDeleteLove the photo of you stretching to check to top was long enough - made me laugh!

I wish I could wear a crop top. Im not fat or anything (woah look at my modesty :/) but I have my belly pierced and it looks total chavvy.
