Trust me; I know the struggle. I've lived it a million times over. A regular bra can be visible and distracting, but going without one can be uncomfortable and impractical. That's why investing in a good bralette or low-back bra is so important. They provide the right amount of coverage and support without being visible or causing discomfort.
Layering is another way to make crop tops more wearable. You can wear a crop top over a tank top or under a jacket for a more modest look. Plus, experimenting with different fabrics and textures can add depth and interest to your outfit.
So with that said, let's dive right in - here's my 10 favorite items to combine with crop tops. And remember, don't be afraid to find your own style and wear what makes you feel confident and comfortable. And remember, the struggle of finding the perfect bra is real, but with a little effort and investment, you can rock a crop top like a pro!
