Don't Abandon Your Crop Tops This Fall

by Jade Melise Herrin

Listen: The truth is that crop tops aren't going anywhere anytime soon. They are everywhere. They have taken over 2015 in the best way, and the fall is about to bring on a whole new collection of crop top vibes. So, the answer to your question about whether it's OK to wear crop tops in the fall? A resounding YES. But the most important factor is knowing exactly how to rock a crop top after the weather cools off a bit. And mind you, there is a right way — mostly because of, you know, freezing temps.

Lucky for us, crop tops can come in many forms. Some are elegant and minimal, adding edge to a classy look. Others might be fun and flirty. No matter your style, there's a chic way to go about the trend. The best advice I could give, is to purchase the top based on quality and how awesome you feel in a particular style. Not feeling the skintight short sleeved versions? Opt for a structured, cropped tank. Want to make a statement, but not really into graffiti-style graphics? There are plenty of graphic patterns that are just as bold. Fall will thank you for your flyness.

Here are a few ways to transfer this summer staple into a fall favorite.

1. Couple It With A Jacket

This is really great for taking your favorite summer crop top and making it wearable for the fall weather. Not only is it good for the season, it looks really clean and simple.

2. Work It With High Wasted Anything

To make that sliver of stomach skin smaller (and therefore stay a bit warmer), high waists are a must for wearing with fall crop tops.

3. Take On The Two-Piece

Doubles just make everything look really crisp whether your slaying in solids or patterns.

4. Rock A Cropped Sweater

When in doubt, pick up a knit cropped sweater and fall will forever work for you!

Looking forward to seeing all of you rock out with your crop out this autumn.
