Fashion Fix. #1


I've decided I'm going to be doing a series of posts called 'fashion fix' its where I tell you you a latest trend, show you a selection of my favourite items following that trend and I give you a few tips on how to wear the items.
it may sound complicated as I'm not very good at explaining myself ha ha! but you'll understand once you've read all of below.

Crop Tops.

Crop tops are a big thing at the moment, celebrities from Shenae Grimes to Cher Lloyd have been sporting this look.

They are quite a tricky trend because one you have to have the figure to pull them off and secondly you have to make them look pretty and femine and not tacky!

1. Do Choose a shirt with a tie front instead of a full on crop top, these just give a little more coverage and look very pretty and girly.

2. Don't overdo the Tan, you want a bronzed belly not an orange one! Being an Essex girl I am a big fan of fake tan but one thing I hate is girls who wear crop tops and have an orange belly hanging out, there's nothing more that screams tacky!

3. Do wear an A-line skirt with your crop top, it will help your waist look teeny-tiny even if its not. 

3. Team High waisted bottoms with your crop top. Your Upper middle is usually slimmer so this will be more flattering.

5. Don't wear your crop top with leggings, really? Can you not notice that camel toe you've got!

6. Don't squash your boobs into a crop top.. this might be hard for you girls who have a D cup or over so maybe you should give this trend a miss!

7. Add Extra layers underneath if your not super body confident or if its too cold outside! a black top paired with a white lace/crochet crop top looks lovely!

8.Don't flash too much flesh! if you have your belly out you don't need your legs out too, not that anyone in the UK would even think of doing that in this weather, lol you'd be surprised!

    1. Thank you hun, ah I'm sure you'd look great in one! step out of your comfort zone abit more, thats what fashion is all about! Maybe your not brave enough to wear a crop top on its own, maybe start off by layering them until you feel like you can pull off the full thing! X
