The boyish crop top

For tonight's post I am going to talk about the crop top. Although a lot of people don't consider it a basic, for me, it is. Not only because it's a really strong trend, but also it's very versatile and easy to wear.

 There are a bunch of crop top styles, some of them are flattering some aren't. The key to find the perfect one, is to know your own body. Personally the ones that fit me great are the ones that are really fitted to my body, or the ones that are a little over-sized. Because I'm busty I can not wear those that have a lot of embellishment or flares. They make me look heavy and squared.

 

For this look I chose a boyish crop top, it's like a regular t-shirt, so it's not to over- sized. To add sassiness to the look, I mixed with a neoprene, tropical print skirt. (This kinds of skirts are amazing, they fit great and go with almost everything.)

I wet to the zoo that day, so I really needed comfy shoes. I decided to wore my Pony sneakers, although at the end of the day I realized they weren't so comfy after all..

This was how I mixed and matched my boyish crop top. It was an easy going look, with an effortless vibe of course.

Wearing down a "LBD"

Today I tried another thing of my "10 things to try this month" list: "wear a lbd in an effortless way".  I wanted a challenge so I decided to wear a basic and dressy sheath dress. The challenge was to really wear it down, so the look would be casual and sporty.

Today I had run a lot of errands, so I really wanted a super comfortable outfit. I just knew I had to wear my dressy black dress for this.

I must say it wasn't easy at all! This dress is very dressy and uptight, so I had to combine it with sporty pieces to achieve a  sproty, casual effortless look.

I started by adding layers to the dress: I chose an over-sized crop shirt with fringes and a distressed denim vest with little studs here and there.

To top all this pieces off, I put aside my heels for today, and decided to wear my super comfortable new balance sneakers. They add this pop of color in an edgy way, I love to wear them with "all black" outfits.

I like to think I really pull it off. I felt really good, it was like I was keeping a secret with my dressy dress underneath this sporty look.
