my everyday style: crop top fun!

Am I the only one that instantly cringes when I think of wearing crop tops?  They look darling on some girls... but I never thought I was the crop-top type until I found the perfect trick for wearing them. If you have ever wondered how to style a crop top... here is my secret tip: pair them with a pair of higher waisted jeans!  Voila! Crop tops are instantly do-able.  (Maybe with the exception of the SUPER crop-tops that go above the belly button - but seriously, we aren't all 18, why do those even exist!?!?)

Surprisingly, this look can actually be VERY flattering, because it perfectly accentuates your waist.  Here I paired a striped crop top with white jeans, fun bow sandals and it's the perfect everyday summer look.
