But here’s the thing, if you are the type of girl like me who has a food baby 24/7, there are certainly some tips you don’t wanna miss as they truly make life easier.

So girls, ready to step out of your comfort zone and rock this baddie?

Below I’ve gathered 8 tips if you wonder how to wear a crop top for curvy and plus-size girls.

1. WEAR THE CROP TOP WITHOUT SHOWING THE BELLY

I get it, so you are not wearing a crop top because you are not comfortable showing your love handles and muffin tops.

But wait, who said wearing a crop top must show a stripe of skin out?

After all, what really matters is to dress in whatever you feel comfortable with.

Instead of choosing the super cropped top, go for the appropriate length and team it with high-waist jeans just to seal the deal.

You aren’t really missing anything as you still enjoy the leg-elongating effect!

Cute and stylish.

DISCLAIMER:

The truth is, we are all perfect imperfections.

You want to learn these outfit hacks ONLY if you feel like it but are not pressured by others. Remember, we never have the need to “fix” our bodies!

You don’t have to be pretty like HER, you can be pretty like YOU.

And believe it or not, there’s still NOT ENOUGH plus-size content around Pinterest and other places on the internet …at all.

So ladies, before reading the tips, please help pin the pin below & support plus-size ladies ♥!

2. SHIFT ATTENTION UPWARD FOR A BALANCED FIGURE

While we don’t have a flat belly, crop tops can still be flattering on us if we know how to create an hourglass illusion.

Yes, I said it, ILLUSION.

You can visually widen your chest area by wearing the shoulder pad top to add some bulk to your upper body.

That way, your waist will look comparatively slimmer and gives out a more balanced silhouette.

As for my favorite, an off-shoulder top just works wonders for me.

Not only does it looks really feminine, but showcasing the shoulder line just draws people’s attention away from the belly area perfectly and contours my figure as a whole.

3. WHEN IN DOUBT, GO FOR A CO-ORD SET

If you want to look put together in a crop top with minimal effort, go for the co-ord set.

Putting the same shade and pattern from head to toe just make your figure looks united and thus look slimmer and taller as a result.

Throw on a black co-ord set with chunky sneakers and retro sunglasses, gal you’re ready to hit the town.

4. OUTERWEAR IS YOUR CONFIDENCE BOOSTER

If you aren’t wearing a crop top that often, high chance you will feel insecure in them, and guess what, you are definitely not alone.

And that’s why outerwear plays a major role here to give you an instant confidence boost.

Instead of throwing a baggy jacket that doesn’t serve you right, go for a sleek blazer, a dropline cardigan, or any kind of straight-line outerwear that will draw eyes vertically to maximize the slimming effect.

Easy piecey!

5. TEAM CROP TOP WITH STRUCTURED FABRIC

As much as I love leggings to my core, I have to admit they aren’t the best thing to team with my crop top.

Unless your pairs are structured and thick enough to hold the shape, I don’t recommend them in general.

Instead, go for sturdy fabric like high waist tweed dress and denim that can slightly sculpt your belly – that truly makes a difference!

6. PAIR CROP SWEATER WITH DRESS FOR WINTER

For the winter days, sometimes I would love to mix my cropped sweater with my cute summer dress.

Guess what, the looks are actually not bad at all!

For a sweet darling look, layer up a pink sweater with a floral dress, sheer black tights, and ankle boots are just beyond refreshing.

For the girls who want extra sassiness, get bold with a side slit dress and thigh-high boots that just boost the coolness tenfolds.

This is so random… BUT

hey ladies, why not quickly do an affirmation and feel instantly better?

This new year, I’m trying not only to share fashion tips but come up with ways to instill body positivity in all women who are reading my articles – aka YOU!

Instead of just reading it, say it loud or murmur the quotes (if you are in public) to maximize the effect.

Ready? Here we go.

I love my body. She is my forever home and sanctuary.

Sassy isn’t a shape, it’s an attitude.

Work out because I love my body – not because I hate it.

I can love myself and change my body at the same time. No guilt about that.

It is completely normal to have tummy rolls. I come to realize that social media isn’t showing the reality… at all.

My happiest moments in life had nothing to do with the way my body looked.

I don’t have to be pretty like her, I can be pretty like …ME.

I AM perfect imperfection.

What are your thoughts on that? I hope that makes you feel better (as you deserved).

Please help me pass the body positivity message in your community. #womenhelpwomen

I remembered once a reader email me and ask: How to not look trashy in a crop top?

Well, they don’t have to be trashy looking at all!

It really depends on how to style them. For a sleek boss girl look, wear a jacquard crop top with a tunic white shirt underneath just to make you look like a million dollars.

So yes ladies, you can actually hide your belly and look expensive in a crop top. How crazy is that?

Last but not least, my all-time favorite – is the peplum crop top. They are the godsend for curvy and plus-size girls.

Featuring a pleated strip of fabric around the high waist area, it just comfortably hides your belly and fakes an hourglass figure for you.
