Thanks in part to 90’s revival as well as festival fashion, crop tops have been having a renaissance. Not since music videos circa 1998 has it been so cool toshow off your navel!

With fashion blogs still awash in crop tops, this trend isn’t going anywhere soon. By now we all know that crop tops and denim cutoffs go together like peanut butter and jelly. But with a new season approaching, why not try wearing your crop top in a different way? Try dressing them up for drinks, dancing, concerts or other after-hours events.

Structured skirts, from a-line to pencil shapes, offer a dose of femininity and glamour to offset the inherent casual nature of a navel-baring top. It creates a refreshing change from your standard LBD, too! Paired with sky-high heels in a complimentary hue, you’ll definitely steal the style spotlight. Pair your top with bold earrings to compliment your look (a necklace could compete with your top for attention).

I love really bright, festival-inspired crop tops glammed up with edgy earrings and a ladylike skirt (see the second outfit in the post for an example), but this look is also amazing with a girly, floral crop top. No matter your style, this is a look you can rock!

Show off those hard-won abs or beautiful curves in a crop top this spring for a look that’s so of-the- moment! I know it’ll be my go-to look when the weather warms.
