I tried something new this weekend and I can’t wait to wear this layered crop top to work! Finals are this week and the new semester starts next week, which means I’m scrambling to wrap things up with one class and planning to start all over again next semester. There hasn’t really been any time to think about what I’m wearing in the morning, let alone snap pictures of it. But as I was heading out the door for church this week I realized this was a look that I would totally wear to school, especially as the cooler temps turn to warmer ones. So, we snapped a few pics so I can share.

Pinterest really inspired this look. I have been in a bit of a fashion rut lately and when that happens, I turn to Pinterest to get some inspiration from looks I’ve pinned in the past. A lot of the looks I have pinned for winter and spring involve cropped sweaters over long-sleeve, button-up white shirts. I don’t buy cropped sweaters because…well, they’re cold! But, I’ve had this great trumpet-sleeve, striped top in my closet for a few months and this was just the way to make it work-appropriate.
When this striped tee arrived from Shein, it was much shorter than I expected. It didn’t go back mainly because I loved the price and the soft fabric. I haven’t worn it much to work though because unless I tuck it in, I risk it riding up and exposing my belly…which is NOT work-appropriate for a High School teacher! So, for church this weekend I added a white button-up underneath and voila, a crop top I can wear to work!
