Top: ATL Manila / Skirt: April 2nd / Heels: Zara / Clutch: SM Accessories / Earrings: The Jewelry Shop
Cropped tops are the perfect complementary pieces to show off a toned physique. The thing is, I don't have a toned torso and it would take 10,000 years for me to even develop one panel of toned abs (don't even ask me why!). But even the lack of a toned torso cannot prevent me from indulging myself in trying out restrictive pieces of clothing. My tip for working around those menacing love handles while donning a cropped top? Wear high waist bottoms - they're a godsend to (slightly) strategically cover those unwanted bulges. As seen in this ensemble, I paired a tailored cropped top from ATL Manila with a tribal-print high waist skirt. There's still a blob of jelly tummy peeking somewhere in this look, but at least 3/4 of the flesh monstrosity is concealed. Hahaha!
I love it. Just the right amount of skin! but just fyi, light years is a measure of length/distance though :) hihi.
ReplyDeleteStill waiting for your Wang Family picture!!!! <3 Or while you're at it, why not a whole closet tour!!! HAHA I am overly excited.
OMG! Thanks for pointing that out! How stupid of me. Lol! There, I had to revise the sentence. Hahaha!
ReplyDeleteAs for the Wang shoes family shot, I'm still working on the shoot. Haha! I'm just so super busy that I can't even find time to line em all up for a "family portrait". Lol! But i'll make that happen!
It's a common misconception. I was guilty too until someone I accidentally read about it! LOL
ReplyDeleteI am super looking forward to it, if it isn't that obvious. Haha!
Your skirt and shoes are gorgeous! I also don't have a toned torso and I wish I do but... food!! LOL

That's nonsense! You look amazing in person! Haha! I love this post. Made me think if Kookie thinks it's okay to wear cropped tops sans the abs, then it's totally OKAY.
ReplyDeleteYeah, closet tour, please. Not just the shoe cabinet. Demanding lang. :P
so fierce, bold and edgy from head to toe!!! LOVE THIS!! :D

I love the crop top trend and high waist bottoms are totally the key! I absolutely love the print of that skirt. So pretty and colorful. And I like that that crop top has some asymmetry to it. Very flattering! <3
