Crop tops continue to trend this spring/summer season and I am here for it.
I wear crop tops one way, and one way only – paired with something high-waisted ie, high-waisted jeans, trousers, skirts – but…as I always say – you do you. If I dare to bare some skin on top, I prefer to balance it out with voluminous pants, mom jeans, or cargo pants. High-waisted midi and mini skirts work wonderfully as well. If I do decide to go with a mini skirt, I will typically drape a blazer or oversized denim jacket over my shoulder for a bit more coverage.
There are plenty of crop tops to choose from this season. Some are fun and flirty and others I would say, are wardrobe essentials.
I decided to categorize this round-up by site ie Net-a-Porter, Shopbop, and Matches Fashion rather than by style, so let me know what you guys think. As I mentioned in yesterday’s post, my niece recommended that I add some affordable options to my round-up so I included some cute picks from H&M and Free People too.
Net-a-Porter
I love each and every single one of these crop tops
I’ve owned this Mara Hoffman linen crop top in white for years and I can’t tell you how many times it came in handy. I’ve worn it to the beach with shorts and mini skirts so you can only imagine my excitement when I saw that this season they offer the same style in tan as well, and of course, I had to have it. I wore it in Miami with a pair of high-waisted floral linen shorts.
If you are a floral lover like myself, you will love this handmade linen embroidered crop top by Agua by Agua Bendita. I wore this top with a high-waisted wide-leg khaki cotton trouser but you can also wear it with denim of course.
This Theory black cropped knit stretch tank is the perfect example of a basic wardrobe essential you should own if you don’t already. This is the perfect layering piece under blazers/suits etc…

Shopbop
This Jacquemus linen cropped shirt is another favorite of mine. It has a subtle tonal check stitch and I so appreciate the asymmetrical front detail and relaxed fit. Because the sleeves were a bit longer on me, I folded it once and had my tailor sew a permanent stitch so it would stay in place.
I get many dm’s about the basic cotton crop tees I wear so I thought to include ones from X Karla and Reformation. I wear these dressed down and dressed up. You can also wear these to work out if you fancy.
This Deveaux ecru cotton cropped top with balloon sleeves and elastic cuff details is super chic. This would be great with tapered trousers, a midi-length skirt, and yes, denim always.

Allow me to introduce you to the perfect white cropped button-down shirt by Hommegirls. Even my husband commented on how nice the fit and style are. I love the relaxed fit and raw hem detail. This style comes in white (on the NAP site) and a blue and white striped version.
If my “girls” allowed for me to wear this Jacquemus knotted front linen blend cropped top with a plunging neckline, I would. another super chic style that comes in brown and black.

H&M
I found some great cropped ribbed tank bralettes in soft knits, jersey camis, and tube tops on the H&M site that I’m super excited to share with you. All the pieces I highlighted, I consider wardrobe staples. They come in multiple colors and the best part is they’re all under $12.99!

Free People
So many great pieces on the Free People site. Let’s begin with this relaxed fit black button-down cropped silhouette with wrap-around tie detail. This is a favorite style of mine and the look is simply cool.
One last crop top I’d love to highlight on my must-have list is this bohemian style cropped top with a sweet ruffled shoulder detail. This style comes in a tan and bold pink/purplish color.
