Meet Your Crop Top’s New Best Friend
Happy Fashion Week everyone! This week officially launches the beginning of Fashion Month so prepare yourself for an onslaught of inspiration and fabulous fall fashion! One thing I love about fashion week is the way designers always pair things together in new and interesting ways that you already have in your closet. One label that does this better than anyone else is Celine and for pre-fall they showed us that your crop top is relevant again and that the must have basic item in your closet this season is an Oxford Shirt.
