One of the fashion trends that is sweeping across our feeds are crop tops. From standard size to plus size. I , myself have always wanted to try one but for many reasons held back from doing so.
When the Wet Seal in my local mall went out of business. I decide to take the leap and buy some. I should have only bought one but that was not the case. There are so many ways to wear them. I tend to be a bit modest in my fashion choices. I am daring yet not. Loving the body that your in at any stage can be hard at times.This was one of the reason I took the chance. The first picture I have on a jeans, a vest and a crop top. I will have to say that was the one I felt the most out of place in. I even wore that one around while running errands. No one was just staring at me but it was more my comfort level that was on the line. I would wear that outfit again if I had some truly high -waisted jeans. The outfit was not uncomfortable to wear just not in my range of how I like to wear things. I tend to not show alot of my stomach and legs. I also tend to try to keep the cleavage to a minim. Let`s face it I have some big girls up top. There is nothing wrong with showing off parts of your body that you are comfortable with. I know that is not me. On to the next outfit on the right! This outfit is how I will probably rock crop tops! I`m covered but if i move there is a peek of skin. To which I feel comfortable with. I just paired a high rise maxi skirt with the top! very simple . The last outfit is probably my favorite out of the three. It is a look you could dress up or down! Its fun and whimsical! The crop top , a tulle skirt and chucks! Its fun and flirty! I had a lot of fun styling these outfits! By going out of my comfort zone just a bit I found a new thing I am happy to have in my wardrobe! I have a few more idea of how I want to style crop tops in the future! Now on to a kind of serious note. Body confidence is loving your body at any stage. I know we have stages were we feel invincible in our bodies and stages were that is not the case. It is something we all struggle with. I have not have many struggles with it while I was younger but now that I am getting older its harder. The weight is not coming off as easy has it did. So I have started to get down on myself about it on my bad days. I have deiced that I wont compare myself to who I was or anyone else. I am me at all stages always learning and changing. It is a beautiful thing. Accepting who I am now and who I want to be has help me love myself at the stage I am now. It has drastically improved my body confidence. If you asked me years ago if I would wear crop tops. I would have told you no but I like the way they look on other people. Being body confident is so many things and should be celebrated for all body types! Anyways thanks for reading!
