Styling the J. Crew Relaxed-Fit Cropped Shirt with Crystals

Hi Everyone!

Happy Monday! I hope that you had the best weekend! We had a great and relaxing weekend filled with watching NCAA basketball and tournament championships! Today, I want to share styling suggestions for a top that I think is a slam dunk (see what I did there, LOL), the J. Crew Relaxed-Fit Cropped Shirt with Crystals. This shirt is SOOO cute and versatile. I am not a cropped shirt girl per se; however, this shirt is designed beautifully and the fit is fantastic. The crystals version of this shirt sold out quickly, but J. Crew has multiple versions of the relaxed-fit shirt that are equally adorable. The shirt is offered in bold solid colors, classic stripes, white, wide stripes, and denim.

Styling the J. Crew Relaxed-Fit Cropped Shirt:

Styling cropped shirts can be a bit tricky if you’re like me and you don’t want to expose your midsection. So, the key to styling cropped shirts, tastefully, in my opinion is balancing proportions. I love pairing a cropped shirt with higher waisted jeans. And, I love using the half-tuck, too! So, I styled the crystals version of the J. Crew Relaxed Fit Cropped Shirt with the J. Crew High-Rise ’90s Classic Straight Jean and block heel shoes.

This shirt is incredible and I love the fit because it is not too short. I paired my shirt with jeans, but the shirt would also look great with garment-dyed denim, with a pleated skirt, or with chinos.
