Crop tops have seen a major revival.These cute crop tops I don't think  are going out of trend any sooner. Everyone seems to be too comfortable with crop tops.Crop tops in my opinion when styled correctly can be versatile and flattering.I have already styled a cute crop top with a maxi skirt here and also a cropped shirt here.This time I decided to pair it with high rise pleated trousers.To make the look stylish and chic I have added statement accessories and heels.To turn this look into a casual one, one could go sans any heavy jewellery and add flat sandals and a tote.

Sometimes while putting an outfit together selecting a neutral item and later working bold pieces around it is an apt way.When you have a nice bold print, mixing it with a neutral piece helps in maintaining subtleness in the outfit.

I didn't settle for the regular conventional solid, floral or logo crop tops, something bold which would make a statement was what I was looking for.Seldom you come across pieces with Indian ethnic traits which remind you of your roots and yet can be carried so effortlessly in a western look.The striking modern take on these ethnic symbols grabbed my attention.The rich fabric and the vibrant colour make it more appealing. With such crop tops you can go both traditional or western.

You guys already know what a midi rings buff I am.This beautiful statement midi ring is the newest addition to my midi ring stash.

Fresh Take

Top - Vero Moda UK | Jeans - Zara | Aviators - RayBan | Sandals - Zara | Lipstick - MAC Mehr

Summers is all about loose and comfortable fits.It was the boxy style of this top that caught my attention.This style is so summer appropriate.The boxy silhouette was seen on the runway in various styles and textures.

Also, as we all know sheer is by default a summer trend but sheer panels, the use of strategic see-through stripes and panels at right places I would add is a more demure alternative.Sheer trend is all over the runways and red carpets. And a combination of boxy silhouette and sheer panels is a bonus.

In warmer months I try to stay away from too tight or skinny denims and stick to loose fit denims but not ones which are so baggy to be slouchy.

I have deliberately maintained only two colours in the outfit and not giving in to the temptation of adding a pop of any other bright colour to it.

I had these mirrored sunglasses tucked somewhere in my wardrobe and now that these sunglasses have started poping everywhere I thought it was the right time to get these out, I guess they are more in focus during summer.They are also a great way to add an edge to your outfit.

Currently Loving

Summer pinks

One can wear pinks in all seasons but summers are associated with bright colours and what better then pinks.Lately I have been wearing lots of pink lip and nail colours.

Oversized Rings 

My love for rings is well known but oversized rings have a special place.

Aviators 

After my long affair with round sunglasses I have shifted back to aviators and have been obsessed with them lately.If you follow me on Instagram I already have a couple of selfies with these aviators.

Summer whites

With the rise in temperature I am more inclined towards white.I find whites very soothing in this unbearable weather
