Crop your top

Carrie Bradshaw is rocking cropped tops

Love, love, love “Sex and The City”, Carrie Bradshaw and her amazing style! So bold and fearless with an amazing ability to pull off any extravagant design, her character became a real fashion icon. And that New-Yorker did not hesitate to wear cropped tops!

Cropped tops have been a runway staple already for a few seasons. Designers like Proenza Schouler, Emilio Pucci, Prada and Dolce & Gabbana featured them in their shows. From demanding very short and fitted ones to more forgiving with boxier fits, crops are officially VERY HOT! For the trendiest look wear them with a pant or a skirt with a higher waist line.

But to my surprise it is actually quite challenging to find them in the stores. If you take really expensive luxury brands out of consideration, then there is really not much out there for the average consumer…  Anyway, if you are really into trying this high-fashion trend without spending a fortune Free People is the brand for you. They have a tremendous amount of cropped tops in different colors and shapes so you definitely will be able to pick the right one.
