Guest Post – Sack the Stylist: Crop top with Drop-Crotch Overalls
A guest post by Ashley Reiner of Houston Fashion Trends Examiner. Ashley writes…
"As with everything, both good and bad, from the '80s, crop tops seem to be everywhere these days. Crop tops seem like the most simple do-it-yourself: take a Hanes T-shirt, cut it to tummy-baring length. So why stores are selling these shirts for hundreds of dollars is beyond me.
Unfortunately, that's not the problem here. I found this Coral Petal Top, which is fine… until you get a closer look at what it's paired with. No, your eyes are not playing tricks on you; the model is wearing the shirt on top of what appears to be drop-crotch overalls. The belt doesn't even begin to save this look.
The cherry on top is how the model is striking such a "look-at-me" pose. I'm not so sure I'd be as confident as she is in that outfit.
But, if you wanna strike a pose too, you can find the Coral Petal Top for $88 at Pixie Market.com."

Oh goodness. I keep looking at the overalls imagining her body fit into them normally and her torso/neck/arms are misplaced. Two fashion disasters so not make a right.
I’m pretty sure she’s wearing those suglasses so as to minimize the risk that anyone she knows will recognize her.
I think the shoes are super ugly. No offense to anyone who owns them.
