My Look: Cropped Top and High-Waist Jeans

Trends come and go all the time; while I am glad some are gone, I am ecstatic that a few good ones are back. The cropped top is one of those fashionable currants that found its way from where it started and this time it’s gotten better. Wear it with another ’80s revival the high-waist jeans that are on par with today’s trends.

As promised, here is the detailed post of my outfit that I wore to the Trophée Chopard last week. I am completely in love with Dolce & Gabbana’s vegetable-inspired collection for S/S 2012. And reminiscent of the late ’90s, showing your tummy is back this summer.

My look: Chili pepper-print cotton bustier,matching high waisted full skirtred chili and garlic earringsquilted cotton and raffia top handle bag, raffia-trimmed PVC waist belt, all by Dolce & Gabbana and Tribute sandals by Yves Saint Laurent.
