EXPERIMENT WITH: A LITTLE MIDRIFF
As of late, celebrity tastemakers having been grinning and baring their midriffs. Thankfully, this isn't the tummy showcasing of yesteryear marked by wearing low ride jeans and super tight crop tops. Rather, the look is a small window of flesh at the upper torso worn with conservative hemlines. The look is certainly not for everyone, but enter the old adage: "if you've got it, flaunt it."
Start with a high-waisted bottom, be it a pair of wide-set trousers, a pencil skirt, or a flowy maxi. Choose a cropped top that coordinates and will hover about one to three inches above the latter selected high-waisted bottom. The torso-show should only be a minor interruption between your separates—if your bellybutton is showing it's probably too gaping a display. Check out how it was done on the runways this season, and by Alexa Chung, Zoe Kravitz, and Jessica Szohr.
