TT: CROP TOPS

We are going to throw it way back today with crop tops! If you can believe it, crop tops were actually first worn many many years ago by Middle Eastern Belly Dancers as a form of decorative beaded bralets. They didn't become popular in North America until the mid 80's when Madonna wore a black mesh crop top in her music video for 'Lucky Star'. Because she was the first popular artist to wear the crop top, from then on, the craze spread very fast and it wasn't long after that everyone followed. 

The trend has died and risen many times and it is rising once again for this Spring/Summer. The crop top has always been a love/hate piece for fashionistas but with that being said, it is a very versatile piece that can be worn tight or baggy with high wasted shorts, skirts, pants, etc. During New York Fashion week we saw crop tops all over the runway from designers including Lela Rose, Tracy Reese, Phillip Lim & Zimmerman. 

What crop top style will you be sporting this spring/summer?
