In spite of my protestations against the whole crop top
trend, there are just some crop tops I can’t resist. Like this coral piece:
I mean, it’s coral (!) and lace (!); how could I resist? Especially when it was less than $6.00 at
Nordstrom Rack. And
I’m fresh off two months of no shopping?
Honestly, I’m not Wonder Woman, people.
Although I did do my best Wonder Woman pose today:
So, yeah, there was no way I was passing up this shirt. Of course, it’s basically see-through because
it’s lace, and that caused some consternation early on this morning. At least until I had the idea to layer the
cropped top over a similarly-hued bow blouse that I bought this weekend (Old
Navy, thrifted). I added black cropped
pants (Banana Republic) and my black ankle-strap flats (Hive & Honey via
Piperlime). And then I completely forgot
jewelry. As I do.
I did remember a close up of the combination of the lace and
bow though:
So, points for that then, maybe? Yes?
Fabulous.
Happy Wednesday, Everyone!

I love the pattern mixing of these two tops!! It looks like they're made to go together.
ReplyDeleteI love that you are getting into crop tops because you look great in them! I like to wear crop tops with my super high waisted skirts so that only a little tiny sliver of skin shows. I donno if I have ever mentioned this but I LOVED fashion in the 90s and I feel like cropped tops were a part of that.... as well as leggings. As a kid, did your parents make you wear leggings because you were so tall? Mine did.....pink velvet ones, floral print ones... oh and my scrunchies matched.

Oooh I love the layering here. Coral is...not my favorite color ever, but you are making me reconsider! I always forget jewelry too. Oh well.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great combo - the lace looks like it was made to be paired with the dainty print of the tie-neck top. Ingenious way to wear a crop top. :)
ReplyDeleteShoe love!
