Do you still remember those crop tops from the 80s and 90s? Just like many other current fashion trends, crop tops have also resurfaced after all these years. It’s true what they say, fashion trends are cyclical. This look has been spotted on the runways of Alexander Wang and Erin Wasson x RVCA to name a few. But nope, it doesn’t look anything like when Britney Spears bared her belly back in the 90s. Thank god.

How to wear it?
You can definitely steal this look and put your own individual style in it. A crop top is quite a versatile piece, it can be paired up with a lot of things from harem pants to skirts or high-waisted shorts. So have fun experimenting with it!
- Some of us may like to show a little more skin, some may not. If you want to flash a little skin, try pairing a crop top with high-waisted pants/trousers. Keeping the lines clean will help tame the sex appeal associated with a crop top.
- Pair a boxy crop top with a fitted ribbed tank dress to contrast the proportion of the shirt.
- If you’re feeling bashful about wearing a full-on crop top, try a short high-low shirt that provides the illusion of a crop top.
- Continue the flowy line of a maxi dress with a baggy cropped top layered on top.

The first time I found out the existence of Naraya was when I was shopping at Central World, Bangkok. I saw a long que from the counter right out to the door. Out of curiousity, I went into the shop to check what it’s all about. It turned out they are a variety of bags, cosmetic bags, pouches, soft toys, hangers, boxes and other pretty things made from lovely fabric.
Though it’s not available in Malaysia, I’ve seen a few shops bringing in Naraya products. Here’s a travel size cosmetic bag from Blackmilk Project. It has waterproof inner lining, mirror on back-flap and a zipper closing.

Every time you step into a boutique or browse through blogshops, you can always see a variety of prints– animal prints such as leopard print, polka dots, stripes and floral. I’m sure you have worn those lovely printed tops and dresses of yours, but now it’s time to work printed bottoms! 
How to wear it
Too many prints is an absolute no-no. If you’re wearing a printed bottom, avoid wearing a complex or printed top too. Vice versa. Keep your top simple — contrast is a good thing when it comes to prints.

This pair is surely not for the faint-hearted. If you’re bold enough to wear it, try to tone it down with a plain top. But then again, there’s really no rule in fashion (except maybe visible panty line). We’ve seen celebrities wearing mixed prints and they look fabulous. So, get this quirky pair of pants and experiment with wearing something a little bit more outrageous just because life is a little too short to stick to the rules.
