Each spring there is a trend that pops up that everyone wants to try, but very few can actually pull off. Last year it was high-waisted shorts. This year? Dressy crop tops. Not only is this style questionable in terms of appropriateness, but it’s not always the most flattering even if you have a kick-butt body. Need a few examples? So glad you asked!
The same goes for Selena Gomez — she rarely makes a fashion misstep, but her Kidss Choice Awards look wasn’t her best. This D&G outfit actually looks pretty chic and sleek… when she’s standing up. But this is the main problem with crops–the nearly unavoidable muffin top that happens when you sit down, no matter how skinny you are. So unless you plan to orbit around the party all night, never getting off your feet for a second, you might want to rethink this style!
But, if you’re determined to indulge in this trend, here’s how to do it right–layer a casual crop over a fitted cami, a la AJ Michalka: AJ is totes in fashion — crops look better with a casual style — but her tank underneath keeps a lid on any jiggly bits and she avoids looking like she’s backstage at a Def Leppard concert.
Tell me girls, would you rock a formal crop top to a hot summer party? Or is this one of those trends that is better left on the rack?

















i really do like selenas
I love crop tops. I wear them all the time. Im not selena thin but im not like big either. Im a healthy weight. I usually wear them with a cami like aj but sometimes i dont depending on my mood and where im goin. Selena lookd great in hers i think. and miley pulled it off okay i guess….looked very gypsyish lol.
i don’t really like selenas…. but she can wear way she wants, I’m happy she isn’t afraid 2 wear way she wants
i like ok but only for some kind of people
I love AJ’s and Selena’s. I agree there was a bit of muffin top, but it’s not like you wanna go walking around, showing off you’re bones “hey look at my bones, aren’t they sexy?” Even though I loved Selena’s outfit, I thought it was a little inappropriate for the KCAs… I mean it’s the KIDS’ Choice Awards LOL
Selena’s outfit was cute, but I did notice a bit of a muffin top in KCA pictures even though Selena is obviously pretty thin. Would have been solved with a couple of more inches of fabric on the top, so I agree with yall here!
I Love Selena and Mileys outfit
<3
i love selena’s outfit!
