When I wear crop tops I try to do it very strategically because I think there’s something to be said about leaving things to the imagination. However when you’re in such humid weather, you can get away with a lot more, or in this case a lot less! I wore this bathing suit by Giejo Swim quite a lot because it’s so versatile. On our way to lunch from the beach I threw on this skirt and suddenly this bathing suit top turned into a crop top. I’m all about versatility in my pieces, especially when investing in new pieces for the season. Like I’ve shared before, my collar bones are best feature so I love how off shoulder tops highlight them. Since this skirt is so fitted I like the extra volume in these sleeves because they add a little more dimension to my silhouette. It’s all about playing with different proportions.
Plot twist! This skirt is actually a tunic. I started to pick up the trend of wearing my shirts backwards a few fashion weeks ago, but I’m bringing it back for this spring/summer! I think wearing it as a skirt and tying the sleeves in the back adds a lot more texture and makes it much more unique. Not to mention I have the option of wearing it as a regular top whenever I want! The stripes are also super flattering and this top is perfect for the warmer weather whether it be worn as a skirt or a top! The key thing to pulling off your tunic as a skirt is for it to be off the shoulder and to have sleeves long to tie around your waist.

One of my favourite things to do is to mess around with my piece and try to get as much out of them as I can – like you said, you want to invest in a piece that is versatile! I love your little plot twist, or shall is say tunic twist. You make even a crop top look classy
I’m going to try and do the skirt with a shirt and see how it turns out!
