Pulling off a crop top takes a lot of guts. Wearing one as a plus size babe takes extra courage, as this is an item of clothing not typically deemed as “acceptable” to be worn by a larger lady, with mainstream beauty standards being what they are.
So how does a plus sized gal – moi – dare to wear a crop top to the office?
Let me show ya! :)
I took this simple black 3/4 sleeved crop top and layered it over top of a sheer white collared shirt, to create a demure Monday morning polished and sophisticated look.
Since the majority of this outfit is quite monochromatic, I decided to add a blingy statement necklace with loud bright pinks and greens, and earrings to match. (For other monochromatic looks click here, here and here.)
Old Navy‘s Pixie pants were recently on sale again recently – which I immediately alerted everyone to via the FB page - you’re welcome :)
I look a little hysterical, I know! Shopping deals on perfect fitting pants do that to me :)
I found this great houndstooth pattern among them. Just love the look of them with these glossy pumps!
Plus, I finally unveiled the wine moto jacket y’all helped me buy … well, helped with your comments on FB to determine whether or not I should bring this baby home from Reitmans! Haaza!
