Five Fresh Summer Crop-Tops

crop-top-reformation
When Alexander Wang brought back the sports bra with his nifty athletic bra-top, it got us thinking: Can a short top be chic but not scary? Turns out there are a handful of cute cropped shirt styles on the market now that are ripe for the picking and perfect for the So-Cal lady. Just make sure you pair this shorter proportion with a high-waisted short or skirt, and you'll get a look that is more tasteful than tarty. Whether you opt for a cascading trapeze top or just an abbreviated T-shirt, we think you should seriously consider these shrunken styles for summer.
